Xtra Maths!!

To me Xtra maths is very, very helpful, because I get the chance to get to a higher standard in my maths. I prefer multiplication than the rest I like multiplication  because, it was very challenging to remember it all, but I eventually got there and now I know what 9x8= 72 that took me quite a long time to remember but hey, I got there.

I think this helps you and me, because when you start in Xtramath it gives you 100 questions to answer, starting off at addition to complete your three seconds you must answer before it has been three seconds. As you get better you move on to subtraction same goes for that. Then multiplication, then division. I’ve made it to 1.5 seconds addition soonly gonna start subtraction, I got to this by remembering them and have done a good job of it.

I feel like I need a bit more practise on my maths, it seems like I’m not getting the hang of  1.5 seconds addition.  As you are reading, I am going to need a lot more practice on getting my addition done. In order to do that I want to get my memory working hard and memorize them. Wish me luck.

Olympics sport

Well to start of this week, I am going to do a piece of writing about one Olympic sport event, known as Trampolining these competitors all jump, handspring, spin and bounce on the trampoline. I am not familiar with this sport but, I know it is significant, which is why I have chosen to write about it.

I think Trampolining first became an Olympic sport in the 2000 summer olympic games in Sydney Australia.
All I known about this is a total of 36 athletes will be competing in North Greenwich Arena at the London 2012 Trampolining event. From what I've heard and seen both female and male are able to participate in this event.

I’ve learnt that when you practice and practice, in the future you will go on and be able to do things that you are more capable of doing.

Once this event Is on I think It will Inspire me to become a better athlete, when I grow-up. Thanks to Tyler Janssen for reworking my writing and making it good.

Glow In The Dark Golf!!

I have chosen to write about glow in the dark mini golf, where I went with my auntie in the school holidays. It is located in Takapuna right over the harbour bridge, and doesn’t take long to get there at all .

My favourite hole was hole 14, because it was very challenging. You had to hit it up the ramp and roll back down. I was getting really annoyed, but then, not long after, I hit it hard making it rebound off the wall and straight into the hole. I screamed, “HOORAY!”because I was so happy to get my first hole in 1.

I really hope I get this opportunity again and maybe I’ll get lots more in. Hmm, maybe I should go and practice if I really want to get good at this.

Olympic Writing

This terms topic is about the olympics, and I have chosen to write about this because, I really like to play and watch sports.
Do you like playing any sort of sport?
I love to play netball and rugby (league).

OLYMPIC RINGS!
The symbol of the Olympic events is composed of five connecting rings  colored blue, yellow, black, green, and red on a white background. The colors of the rings represent the flags of the five continents that participate in the Olympics. Known as Africa, Asia, Oceania, Europe and both North and South America.

In the last four year, these are some champions

Usain Bolt- The current fastest man in the World.
Galina Chistyakova- The lady who holds the best score of long jump.
Randy Barnes- The male who holds the record of shot put.
Natalya Lisovskaya- The female who also hold the top score of shot put.

Watching the olympic games will hopefully inspired me to achieve my goal. I have selected running, I would like to get faster and better than I am now, to reach my goal I will practice and practice.

I would like to say thank-you to Tyler Janssen for reworking and helping me to make it sound better

Food Technology!

This term the year 7&8’s have technology. I am in cooking, we have cooked so many yummy stuff and I really love it in there because I get to eat not only when Its morning tea time but in the morning too.

Making food with Ms Heka is fun we make desserts foods and we maybe able to make smoothies to. So far all I remember making Is The:
chocolate chunky Biscuits
dutch apple pie
hotcakes and the shrewsbury biscuits.

I love to eat, thats all I do eat, eat, eat like a big big pig, na just kidding but just as I said before I do love to eat. I especially like eating the hotcakes with caramel sauce and chocolate.

Every single time I walk back to school I eat the rest of my food, (If i haven't already eaten  it) I run like the wind into the warm class because I get so cold I can’t even feel my toes.

I really hope I get to do this again.
This story will be followed by another in Term 3, but for now bye bye.

My Novel Study!!!

This term, our group has had the opportunity to read a novel known as”THE ANGEL EXPERIMENT”, written by James Patterson. This is the first time I’ve been asked to read a novel,  since I’ve been at Pt England School.

Having the chance to read this with classmates is very helpful because, as soon as you are unable to understand one word they help you asap.
Reading this in our groups has been fun. Learning together is what I like to do, especially with my friends.


I hope we get to do this again. I really did have fun reading, so if you would like to read this novel go online and look it up to read or you could go ahead to the shop and buy one.


Id like to say Thank-you to Eleva for editing my work with me.

My Favourite Place!!!

This week room 18 had to do a piece of writing about our favorite place. We have recently just started and have nearly finished.

I have chosen the Pt England reserve as my favorite place because I love going there with my cousins. I don’t go there often, but when do  we play games involving water, we bomb off the rocks and we have the biggest feeds especially when we are all together.

I love coming here to play because we all have heaps of fun.
This place is very special to me because we are always happy when we are there, I really want to visit other beaches to make more memories.

Special thanks to Tyler Janssen for going over and over just to make my writing sound perfect.
