Quick 100

 Today for maths we did a ten minute maths challenge, we had to answer 100 times table questions, I got one hundred out of one hundred and I took 5 minutes and fifteen seconds. My goal is to do all of my questions faster, and to get my time to under five minutes.

Swimming

For most mornings we have the choice of doing fitness or swimming. This week I have chosen swimming. We have been focusing on the three main strokes, Breaststroke, Backstroke and Freestyle. When we were swimming freestyle we made sure that when we looked up to breathe that our ears were rested on our shoulders and that for each stroke we brushed our arms against our ears. For backstroke we had to brush our arms against our ears and have windmills arms ( arms that don't stop ) and for breaststroke we made sure that our arms weren't` doing big strokes that passed our hips but small strokes that stayed in front of us.

Why Should You Employ Me…

You should employ me as a water slide tester because I am a daredevil and I like to take risks. I will put people before and I will give you my honest opinion to whether the slide is safe or not. I love water slides and I will still enjoy my ride. I have enough skills to help myself ( I know how to stop bleeding, I can put I also know how to use water safety) if I am put in danger. I will have a calm mind when I need it. I have a love for high adrenaline rushes. I have been unemployed for a while so that I could train for this job. 

Surfing

 Last week on Friday we went surfing with a group of girls down to the local surf club.  We all went out back and caught waves before the broke and before they went to white water waves. We also saw a pod of dolphins, there were about three or four of them. I got cold early so I got out and then Dad brought me a hot chocolate. 

Dance And PE

 This week at school for PE we have been doing dance and teamwork fitness. Today we learnt a dance called the ace of spades. We had to do freestyle dancing and then when the music starts you had to run to a corner which was either Ace of Spades, hearts, diamonds or clubs. Then a teacher would draw a card and if you were in the diamonds corner and the card was a diamond then you would be out. We have also been learning dances such as the 'Bunny Hop' and the 'Saturday Night Fever' line dance. We are doing these dances and activities to.. 

1. make us feel like we belong in the studio by doing a shared activity.

2. so the more we grow the more confident we become.

3. for our own personal growth.

I feel like I have grown even though it has only been a few weeks. We have also done some Zumba's and Just Dance.

First week back at school

 The first week back at school have been fun, we have had tech, PE and swimming. One of my favorite things about getting back was that me and Meg got tot help the beginner swimmers. I also like PE which used lots of teamwork. We have been trialing free lunches and so far they have been all right. I cant wait for the next few weeks. 

Tech

 Every Thursday the year seven and eights got to tech. The tech center is at the old Linwood college site. I am in a group with one of my friends Poppy. We have plastics and cooking. This week at plastics we practiced cutting out shapes with an electric saw ( I am pretty sure its called a jigsaw??) I made a quote puzzle a wave and a hangman - it hangs on a door and can hold stuff. Then we went out to break and sat and talked about what we did. 

Then I went into cooking class. We made yummy meatballs and some wedges. We got taught all about hygiene and safety for when you are cooking, preparing food and eating.

Tech was fun and I can't wait for the next class!
