LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

As most of you know Wednesday is the last day of school for Pt England, most of us are happy because we get 2 weeks of holiday. I know it doesn't sound like a lot but for us it is, because every single weekday we have school but every single weekend we have a break so that's 5 days of school every week until well you know.


As weird as this sound I really don't want to finish school because I won't be able to see all me friend until after 2 week :-(.


I feel like staying at this school forever and I never want to leave but unfortunately I have to move on If I had 1 wish I'd wish nobody would ever grow up.

My Net-book Reflection!!!

This is my reflection about my Net-book. I am doing this based on why I like working on my Net-book and why I don't like working on my Net-book



The Year of the Net-book ( make up your own title for your reflections about using a Net-book this year)


Make notes in this table of all the pros and cons of having a Net-book.
The things I liked about having my Net-bookThe things I did not like about having my Net-book or the problems I had during the year.eg. it’s made it much easier to …learn on the net-books because instead of getting up to use the dictionary I could just make a new tab and look the word up. It is easier to work on it because I can post to my blog faster than waiting for the multimedia stationMy dislike about having Net-book is that some times the Internet works slow, and another thing about having our Net-books is that we don’t always get to play game but I rather learn than play.

The thing that I like about having my Net-book is that we get to take it home and that when we go home most of us can get the Internet from home.

Now use your notes to create a paragraph about the good things (there are a few sentence starters to help you if you need them).

This year I have really _______________Enjoyed_________ having a Net-book to work on because …

Another thing ….
There are many reasons why ….
Furthermore having a Net-book has meant that ….
Most definitely the best thing …..

This year I have really enjoyed having my Net-book because I like to look up word and keep them in my head and I like to look up the word because I could try memorise the definition.
Having a Net-book is really really fun because I can play games at home and I can get the Internet at home which is even better but having the opportunity to have a Net-book to work on is amazing and I never thought that all the time I wouldn't get A laptop till I was about 18 year old but then again here I am now working on a Net-book.

Now use your notes to create a paragraph about the things you didn’t like or the issues you encountered or came across.
The thing I haven’t liked about having a Net-book is that I hate it when the Internet gets to slow then I have to wait for about a minute just to get back on the Internet.5
Net-book writing is much easier than writing with pencil and paper because I would clearly like to work on a Net-book because I like to play typing games as well.



As much as I have loved having a Net-book there are some things that I haven’t liked.....
I haven’t liked some things about it because I when I go on stuff like google docs it sometimes says google docs error please refresh your page and as I refresh it, it take about a minute for it to load again.


What are some of the biggest differences in your learning using a Net-book the advantages for your learning (you may have covered some of these already in your likes).
The biggest difference I think about having a Net-book is easier to have a learning mind set to what you need to do even though I wonder out of my work I do eventually get back to it.



What has been the biggest challenge to you in terms of managing yourself and your learning using a Netbook? Have you been in the ‘right place and space’ ? Have you been Cyber Smart?
I have no idea if I have been in the right place and space at the right time? I am not sure that I have been Cyber smart either.

The hardest thing …The greatest challenge for me …
From time to time ... I do get to learn but then I wonder away from my work and I get distracted by other people.
Most of the time ...



What if it was decided that the Netbook Pilot Scheme was a failure and you had to go back to pen and paper?

I think … it would be absolutely stink and I probably would cry if I herd we had Netbook’s and we didn’t even get it
It would be …
If the Netbook Scheme failed and …


When you have finished delete all the red text.

6 Hour Drive!!!

A short while ago, me and my family went for a 6 hour drive to Taranaki (this is my home town) for my aunties funereal. She was buried in a coffin made of flax as surprising as it sounds, she weaved it.
It was my first time coming into Taranaki to meet the rest of my family, I meet my uncle Ropata (he’s a true Maori) I meet most of my cousins and my Nana's and gran-pa's and every body else.
I knew that I would be shocked when I saw my aunties body and I was but not as much.
I really want to go back for Christmas holidays to see my cousins, my uncles and aunties.
Everyone was crying after the funeral and I never wanted to leave my auntie but I had too.
When we left to go home the next day, I really really wanted to cry cause it had been to long for me stay and not want to go home.
I said “I will miss you guys”
My uncle said “We will miss all of you too”
“BYE” said my mum
“BYE” they all said
“I hope we get to go there again”
“Me too, did you have fun with the girls”
“Yes”
“Then we might as well go in the Christmas holidays”
“YEEP” i screamed

Matakana Fair

Going up North was a long trip, It was so long I fell asleep half way there.

As I woke up 2 hours later, I was ready to eat. I yawned loud giving my mum a huge fright “WOW” she said “don’t scare me again I might crash,”
“ok” I replied in a sigh I said hungrily.
“Wait“ she said and we pulled up into the McDonald's drive thru
“ may i please take your order” I heard “ yes” replied my mum .
“What do you want,” inquired mum
“ a double cheese burger combo please”,
“with what drink?” she said
i replied with a answer saying “coke please”
‘’ok Coke coming right up”
We drove to the window, my order came through
“thank-you “said my mum.
We drove the rest of the way to my aunties house, it was about half and hour away. We got there finally i went to the back for some fresh air and there she was, she whispered in my ear “guess what”
“what” i said.
She knew I loved going to the Matakana and she said “It’s tomorrow “
“ what’s tomorrow?”
“you know the fair”
“Yay” i screamed louder and louder (with excitement) “Woohhoo”


As The day came I woke up early waiting for every one else to wake up . Every one was getting ready but me, my auntie says to me “watta eager beaver”
“hahahahahahaha” I laughed.
“I want this and I want that,” I said to my mum and my mum said “ OH TYLA YOU JUST WANT EVERY THING DON’T YOU” and I said “pretty much” (my mum laughed and so did I.)

On the way home from the Matakana Fair with the back of the car fulled with stuff we got from the fair my mum said “WOW it looks like we spent a lot of money” and i said
“but we didn't” my dad laughed and said” we only spent $50 dollars”
“that’s still quite alot” said my mum
“not really”
“true”
Not wanting to go home, I sat watching out the window as my auntie and her family slowly disappeared.
Screaming out loud i heard “BYE"

Badminton!!!

Badminton, Badminton, Badminton!!!
How boring do you think it sounds, well I bet it sounds really boring.
Yeah well I bet once you give it a chance you will love it.
Before I started playing I thought it was going to be boring, but then like I said before I gave it a chance, and It was quite fun.
What are some things that I liked and disliked you might ask. Well thing that I didn't like is when you had to keep stopping to listen to the instructor and stop playing. One thing I did like was having the experience to learn some new skills. Oh and guess what it turns out that our instructor plays on T.V.
I mean WOW how cool is that.
OMG I did it, I actually did it. I was screaming in my head, then all of a sudden “BRRRRRRRRRRING” OH man I was thinking, not wanting to go I did a big sigh. OK so have you ever heard what some of the skills called, here are 3 of them
backhand, forehand, and a trick shots. The way she did it was amazing she did one where you chuck it up and hit it under your legs, and another one where she did a backside hit (well that’s what I call it anyways).
Oh no I heard some one say, out of no where I said Oh yesssss. Where playing our game now, O my head I would say oh “OK focus Tyla Focus You can do this” I only said it because I was a bit nervous, OK maybe a little bit more, Fine you got me I was a lot more nervous.
picking out demonstrators was our instructors one, two, three, and one more you.
She pointed at me “Haaa me na” come on she kept saying till I got up I sighed again.
I got to the court and a little tap is what I heard I turned and wallah I tried to hit it but I missed. I started laughing tap I heard it again I turned and moved it hit the ground. Now see if it hits the ground you are also out ok do you get the instruction now in reply we said”YES” alright off you go then” line by line person by person another and another.
By jolly there was alot of noise by alot I mean screaming and that stuff, It was so x3 noise. Wow what an experience that was and I really hope that we can do this again especially doing another sport. In the end I said to myself WATTA DAY and blew my head from sweat.
