Basketball game

On Friday my family and I went to Auckland. We went  to watch a Breakers game. My mum and Dad brought me and my sister a Breakers singlet.  The singlet I got was number 10 Tom Abercrombie. When we got inside Vector Arena they called out all 5  of the  players  from the Perth Wildcats team that were playing.   But then it went dark and there was smoke all over the ground and light shooting everywhere  they started calling out all the 5 Breakers that were starting. We were winning till we were all most tied up  and was on the edge of my seat. When the Breakers got a foul and had to shoot at the goal we had to put up our hands till they had shot it.  In the second half we had to stand up till the Breakers got a goal they didn’t get that goal we were looking for because there was a foul. At the end of the game  was sitting on the side of my seat. The Breakers  ended up winning 88- 80 I enjoyed watching that game it was really fun. 

              

With my maths this year I had started in a higher maths group  then went down but to me that was ok  because I am still learning what  I want to. My favourite thing that I have done this year will be geometry even though I have not done much and I loved making  our farm that we are making at the moment.  I think that IXL has helped me a lot this term. I love Working with people in my  group. here is a picture  of my  group working together.

Here is  a video of my hight jump video. I love doing high jump but I am not the best at it. But my goal is trying to lad instead of flopping on the mat. The hardest for me was trying to get over the bar.   

iDrive

Today for iDrive me and  5 other students played a game, it was called a cup game. Emma, Aly, Hayley, Leon and Daniel played this. I have never played a game like this before. It was easy till we had to get blindfolded. The two people that were not in that round had to point out when they had to go, that was the hard part.

To play this game you will need some  rubber bands and string you will also need 4 people to play this game plus lines to follow. I enjoyed playing this game and we used creativity by adding in the blindfold that made it harder, plus we use collaboration by working together to get to the end. Here is a picture.

i Drive my street

Today for i Drive  my street this week Ashling, Olivia, Emma, Sophie, Elaina, Kate   and I   made up a circus act. Emma  and  I  found it hard to  find  an act that was hard and off the ground. We finally found a way to make it because we were tight rope walkers. Kate was a clown  slash tight rope walker.  Sophie and Olivia were clowns with a very funny  act. Elaina was an acrobat  and Ashling  was  the host. We found a way  to make the characters like us. I liked creating  the courses because you did not know what was going to happen.  We used creativity because we had to make the course  and make sure it worked..

Holiday recount

                                                   Holiday  recount
On the first Sunday of the holiday I did Paeroa to Thames run.  The night  before  the race  I got a call from Mrs Kennedy to see  if I was feeling fit because a kid in my class had pulled a hamstring.  He was supose to be running for the school team. Mrs Kennedy asked if I could run for the school team as well as her team. I said yes.
 it was the day of the race and I was feeling a bit nervous. After I had started  i was feeling so much better. I   ran the first 2 legs  and then one for Mrs Kennedys team. It smelt  really bad and all country side looked pretty cool as I was running along. After I handed the belt to Tawa   my legs felt like  they were going to fall off.  After that  I had a big long drink of flavoured water  and some energy chocolate. We had to try  get to the next  stop in time for the person to go for  their run. After 3 to 4 runners it was  my turn to run the last leg  again.  Karly  and Jamie ran with me  to the end.  It was a really cool day.   I would do it again.😃

                                                                I drive my  street


Today for iDrive my street me, Georgia, Holly and  Freya made a doll out of play doh. First  I made the legs and the arms Georgia made the head, Holly made the dress and Freya decorated it. For the Learning Powers at school we showed collaboration and  creativity.  I found it really hard  because if we got something wrong we had to fix it up  again and again. At one stage we got told we had 5 minutes till we had to pack up. Holly  tried to take a photo  but couldn't  so  we had to ask Miss Heaven to take a photo for us.

ANZAC troops fighting important War

ANZAC troops fighting important War

The ANZACs  arrived in  Belgium at 3:10 a.m on the seventh of June 1917. There was an explosion of huge mines that had been placed under the German lines by hard working turners. Many Germans were killed.

Everything went to plan and by 7:00 a.m. New Zealanders suffer 3700 injures including 700 killed.    

Qoute

I picked this quote because it sums me up because I never give up, I always keep trying! No matter how many mistakes I make, I am ahead of everyone who isn’t trying. It is really cool because the past has already happened. I can’t change the past but I can change the future. If someone is trying really hard, just tell them they are doing well.  

The author of this quote is Henry J.Kaiser.

My Dad

For the past few weeks we have been writing about someone we really know I did my dad.

When I get home from school and walk into the lounge I see dad in his 4Site Builders dirty work clothes sitting in his favourite spot...on the couch!  He has a beer in one hand, (Export 33), the ipad in the other hand and the T.V. blaring watching movies and playing clash of clans. My dad is happy as.  He takes a sip of his Export 33.

For a living my dad is a builder, which means that he is very helpful around the house. This is good because we need a handyman to fix things up around the house.  Normally after work he comes home and steals the  remote.  So we have to  watch his  program which is Gold Rush or any rugby. Normally On Tuesday and Thursday dad has rugby training which  is good because we get to watch whatever we want. When Karly and I have a friend over we have to book in a time to watch T.V so when we book our T.V time dad will go to his room and watch what he wants to.     

My Dad is approximately 5 foot 7 inches and of short and solid build. He has blue eyes, tanned skin and chocolate coloured  hair. Normally dad wears a hat or when we go out for dinner he has his hair spiked like a hedgehog!

Dad used to play rugby but he had to stop because he hurt his knee when he was younger. Last year he hurt his knee with the handle of the axe! In dads spare time he comes and watches T.V or goes for a bike ride, on his spin bike in the lounge and turns the T.V on or the music or goes for a walk on the treadmill. Most of the time he goes on his spin bike. He got it after he hurt his knee.

Character Description

These past two weeks we have been Doing writing a character description about someone we know well.  I am doing my dad because he is really fun, exciting and nice and he is a handyman around the house. You can read some of my first Draft, hope you like it.

WW1

The century since world war one

This week Whetu have been learning about  ANZAC Day.We learnt quite a lot  the past few days like what ANZAC means.  It stands for the Australia New Zealand Army Corps. This year is the 100th year since the ANZACs landed on Gallipoli Peninsula which  mean’s that  it is a big day for a lot of the  people. We  have even learnt about what countries went to fight in World War 1. c .More than  4400 ANZACs died in Gallipoli. I feel sorry for the people who  died in the war.

Gardening

     

     

On Friday's we have been doing anything we want in the end block it’s called passion Friday. There are heaps of different group's one is a gardening and that’s the  group I am in. This is really fun because we get to plant heaps of different things and weed the garden. So far we have been planting spring onions, radishes, silverbeet, beetroot, butter beans and chives. I like the gardening group because we are all alike. We have a big tree for when it is hot and we need a break. We are wanting to plant more thing’s but we have to think really hard about what we are planting next.

For the last term we have been reading a book about the  naming of Tishkin  Silk. It is about a young boy who was born on the 29th  of February. He is the  smartest boy in his grade. So he gets put up a year. Griffin has three sister's. His mum and dad had left him when he was young he has never seen him since.

narrative writing

For writing this week we have been writing a narrative. We have  been writing  it in a pair.  Or story is about  a spooky  House on Maple Street.  This is  paragraph one.

One Friday on the 30th of October Mr and Mrs Smith moved into the 13th house on Maple Street in Froze Valley. They were both unaware there was a curse on the house and each Halloween night at 12 o'clock, whoever lived in that house turned into green goblin's. The whole town were terrified of that house!

My cameo

This term we have been writing Cameos. A cameo is a short descriptive piece of writing. Please leave a comment.

Walking along the gorgeous beach as the golden sand sink’s between my wet toes.

Running down to the refreshing water as warm golden  sand flicks up at me.

The glassy water sparkles like a gem.

I stand 0n the beach watching magical boats as the water crisscrosses behind them.

I perch down to watch the beautiful sun set.

My favourite place, The Beach

This is  my  pompom  bucket we use them so people  put them in if we help them or do something nice.
I have five already!!!!!!!!!!!!
