Yesterday Room 4 of Tomarata School made pumpkin and kumera soup.  If we had finished our work we could go and prepare the soup.  I was one of the people. It was a wet and windy but it wasn’t raining. I had to peel a pumpkin.  First, I had to take out the seeds.  Secondly, I had to peel the skin with a sharp knife. I felt a few cuts with the knife.  Next I had to cut the pumpkin. I tried using different methods but it took too long. We had to put the slices into a big pot. While we were cutting the pumpkin, some onions arrived.  After I finished I had some kumera to peel.  I noticed that I had a cut on my naughty finger.  Next I went back to class.

After morning tea Room 4 had to write the recipe about the soup. It included the ingredients and the instructions.  If we were finished, we could draw a picture about what the soup would look like.

Soon the soup was ready. I completely forgot that I liked pumpkin soup.  Next I tried some. The soup burnt my teeth.
