Week 10 Reflection

What: On Monday the year 6's went to WIS to do robotics, science, hard materials, cooking and technology.  On Tuesday I went to Aranui School for a 2 and a half kilometre run with about 10 other people from Carlton School. We competed against other kids from other schools from around Wanganui.  The fastest people  in their age group were chosen to go to Aranui. It was crowded there, their were about 500  kids racing at Aranui. I was in the 10 and eleven year olds race. In my race there was about 100 kids  and I came 37th. Jake, Casey and Jayden were also  in my race. Jake come 10th, Casey come 35th and Jayden come 75th. Our habit's of mind is to gather data through all senses, for that we have made a poem about the 5 senses and a backround with the color or season we chose to do. We also discovered a new website called Edmodo, now we do all our work on the internet and email it to Mrs Larsen  It's pretty cool.

So What: I learn't how to make apple tarts at cooking class. I learnt how to make a spin top at hard materials. I kind of learnt how to use the new website that Mrs Larsen discovered.

Now What: I want to learn how to make more complicated stuff for cooking because I quite like cooking.

Carlton School Olympics closeing ceremony

Yesterday it was the Carlton School Olympics closing ceremony, that's when they hand out the medals to the people that got a gold, and for the people with second and thrird place you got a ribbon or a certificate. I got a gold in sprints because I am super fast and in vortex, I picked up a second place, it was just too hard to beat Cole because he has a strong arm. The gold medals were  made out of  wood and they were spray painted  gold then they put a sticker saying Carlton School Olympics, you're a champion.
There was a special guest coming to hand out the gold medals, she was an Olympic athlete. Her name was Phillipa Baker Hogan. She placed fourth in the womans double skulls rowing final just one place away from a bronze. That was in 1992. She also went to the Olympics in 1996 and got 6th in the womans double sculls final.
Over all I think every body did their best and I felt proud because I got a gold and silver medal.
