Amazingly Fun Confusing Reading Test

 Kia ora bloggers, on our first day back at school our teachers told us we are going to start our day with something fun, our teachers gave us a paper with a set of 23 instructions on it and the teachers also told us we are doing a reading test. Te Ngahere and I were really excited until the teachers said we are doing a reading test so we all started moaning until the teachers said we are doing this for a reason. The reading test was to see how well we follow instructions. The first instruction was to read everything carefully before doing anything. I read them all but I didn't read them carefully because the last step said ( Now that you have finished reading everything carefully, do only sentences one and two! Then draw quietly on the back of this paper while you wait for everyone else to finish!). So that's how I didn't read them carefully, and I chose to do them all because I did not read them all carefully. I thought this was really difficult because most of us didn't read the last instruction carefully and that made me a bit frustrated. To be honest I barely found this fun because when we were going through it with the class I now knew I was wrong. Have ever experienced something like this before?
