Why The Snake Has No Legs
Once upon a time, long long ago, there lived a Snake, but he wasn’t just any other Snake, he was blind. He always told himself “I’m the first of my kind and I’m blind, I’m such a disappointment.”
As you can tell, he was always very hard on himself for being blind, but all of his friends knew it wasn’t his fault. But from time to time they get so tired of Snake and say some very harsh words that make him feel disgusting inside.
Being blind made Snake’s life very compact. Doing simple tasks were difficult for him, and he always gets in lots of trouble because of it. When Snake went places, he would get mocked, so he would run away while crying to himself for hours.
One day, Snake decided to go to a festival because he was in such a good mood, but things started to turn ugly in seconds.
At the Festival ~
Snake starts by bumping into Zebra. Zebra tells Snake about the festival of colours and feels bad for Snake because he cannot see. Snake tries to find the festival of colours but just keeps bumping into stuff.
Snake bumps into more animals and they all feel bad for Snake once they find out that he is blind. Snake bumps into Turtle again and Turtle Yells at him. Then Turtle suggests that Snake borrows a pair of eyes for the festival.
Snake tries to bribe Frog for his eyes because Frog is sick. Snake realises that Frog eyes are too big for him and lets Frog take them back. Snake then tries to bribe Chameleon for his eyes with flies.
Chameleon eyes are too colourful for Snake, so Snake lets Chameleon take them back. Snake runs into a Centipede. The Centipede is stuck and cannot crawl out. Snake offers to trade his eyes for Snake’s legs.
The centipede accepts, so Snake gives him his legs. The Centipede runs around all happy and gives Snake his eyes. Snake goes happily to the festival of colours.
And that’s why Snakes have no legs!

Week 6 – Term 3 – Home learning – Writing – 2022
~LITERACY~
Instructions: Write 1-3 paragraphs about what college you would like to go to next year or in 2040, and talk about why.
Home learning – Selwyn college
The reason I would like to and am is because Selwyn college offers short courses to educate, inspire, up-skill, entertain, and exercise. Their 200+ tutors are experienced, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly. Most have teaching qualifications and many are experts in their fields. The language teachers are all native speakers. They schedule more than 700 courses each year.
They even offer a series of evening lectures called ‘Think Talks’ which are held approximately once every four weeks (suggested donation $5). The majority of their courses are run on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings but they also have a smaller number of day-time classes, and we run weekend programmes about ten times per year. We also run some children’s after-school and holiday courses.
Another reason is because my 2 older sisters, Alisha the oldest and Zaeeda the middle child, are already there. My dad also went to college there for his choice of education, and now has his own business that he runs alone. He has 4.8 stars on his reviews, and is one of the best mechanics in Auckland. His business is called “Advance Mobile Mechanic”. If you would like to learn more about my dad’s business, click on this: Link. If the link doesn’t work, you can open a new tab and copy & paste “Advance Mobile Mechanic Khan” in the search bar.
