Fun Athletics Day!

Athletics Day!!

Hello guys!, Yesterday at Hornby Primary School was Athletics Day. I was so happy because sport was one of my favourite subject. The events was happened on our huge field. The sport the we did are Shot put, Discus, long distance (running) Sprints, high jump and long jump. The athletics day went good, because lot's of children have resilience and doing their best.

 My favourite part of day or time was the long distance (running) sport because, it was challenging because, we need to do 4 laps around the field, without stopping and also because it was the sport that I love the most. I came 3rd on the Long distance (running) sport because, I tried my best and have good resilience, but it's okay for me that I was 3rd because, at least I have a good time in their. No matter what place you got, the important is that you finished it and tried your best.

 My goal: My goal for next year was to improve my skills in sport and get better at sprints.
My reflective comment:  I was happy and enjoyed the athletics day 
Bye guys and have a great weekend!

Freak the mighty

Freak the Mighty character traits about Max
Focus: My focus is to reread carefully about what I have read.
It was week 3 of Term four. In reading subject, we have been starting to read a new novel about Freak the Mighty. We also have character traits. The task ask to do is, read carefully what we have read about the character in the story, and write it, in the Character traits slide. The purpose of character traits is where we put information that we have been reading about the character, anyway I choose the freak the mighty novel book because the Freak the mighty novel is funny, touching and amazing. I want to share some facts about one character in Freak the Mighty, named Max.   
Facts about Max:
Max has a strong body. He likes to be alone. He thinks he is very stupid so he calls himself Butt Head.  Everyone used to be scared of him, on account of his size. He is also his tall. He lived with his grandparents on his mother's side. I found the challenging the task to do, because, every detailed that you found about the character, you should write it in the character traits slide.

Characters Collection "Holes" Great activity

Focus: Thinking Critically about what we have read and using our inferring skills.   

Hi guys this week, we have been doing our Last activity of our novel. 

We have 4 choices: Character collection, Text conversation, Going deeper and Create a game. Character collection, Character collection is to create a visual that shows items that would be important to one of the characters in your novel.  Text image, text image is about two image of the characters in your novel, having a text conversation. Next, Going deeper, Going deeper is about, a them, event or something else what you would like to Investigate further. And finally, Create a game, create a game is about using gamefroot to create a game that includes important parts of your novel.

 So I choose, character collection activity, because it more creative that you can do, like create your own characters collection of your novel, and also I challenge my self to be more creative and I also enjoy making a collection of my character because I loved making a model, because in my character collection we've make it out of modelling clay. 

Here's my worked/DLO looked like:
