Bear Grylls

Our Habits of mind is taking responsible risks. We are looking at responsible risk takers.

The risks he takes are responsible because he teaches people how survive in bad conditions and that can save people's lives most of the time. He would get a lot of respect because he is such a good role model for travellers and hikers.

My New Scooter

Yeah I can't wait until I get my MGP pro because it's my birthday on Saturday. I know what it looks like because I saw it at the bike shed. It is white with black wheels and black clamps. It cost $180 dollars. I was actually meant to get a $350 scooter but my mum said it was to expensive. On MGP's the wheel's are so smooth. I can go to the bowl with my brother and his friends when I get my scooter. I can't wait!

Week 2 Reflection

What: On Wednesday we went to badminton, it cost 1 dollar each a session. At badminton we had to start of with our stretch's so we didn't pull a muscle or hurt ourselves. On Thursday we started our calender art plan in our art book. Then later we went on to the field and played a rippa rugby game with the rippa rugby instructor. Today we made our good copy for our calender art. Our habit's of mind is taking responsible risk's.

So What: I learnt what responsible and irresponsible risk's are. At badminton I learnt to hit the shuttle lightly rather than to whack it hard.

Now What: I want to learn to pass the ball more to the people that never really get the ball in rippa.

My Contract

For my contract I made a logo for my C02 car. This is mine.

My Awesome Ride in the Ministock

"Wow! That was so fun" I said. I had just been learning how to drive a ministock because I have my own ministock that I will be driving at the speedway next year. It has the number 68v and is blue with a plastic super charger on the bonnet. The ministock has four gears but when your racing you are only allowed up to second gear. In a ministock race you are not allowed to crash. To race you need a license, to get a license you need to go through a open book test. My ministock stinks like a rotten revolting rag, it sound's like a hot rod just getting ready to race. I can not wait until I race next year because I pretty much know all the gears and clutch on the ministock.

Application Reading Activity

Application
Write a letter to your new friend the high bar apologizing for behaving so badly in the past and explaining why you behaved that way.
Dear High Bar,
I am so sorry about my poor behaviour. I should not have been so scared of you. The only reason I was scared of you is because I had a bad and embarrassing experience with you. I was afraid I might get hurt. So sorry. I hope now we can be friends.
From Keylen

Evaluation Reading Activity

Evaluation
Seeing both sides Make a chart and list your reasons for agreeing and disagreeing with this statement. “Gymnastics is too dangerous for little children”
I disagree with this statement because if the young children start off with the easy skills they can work their way up to harder skills.
I agree with this statement because children could slip and hurt themselves. That’s why they would have to be extremely careful.

Week 1 Reflection

What: On Monday we started a new type of maths it's called geometry. For geometry we got to choose something to draw with shapes on Word. I did a car. On Wednesday we did a seaweed picture for the background of our fish we created last term. First we got three colours dark blue. green and light blue. Dark blue went at the bottom of the piece of paper then green in the middle and light blue up the top. We blended the colours together. Then we ripped paper out of news paper and made them into seaweed. Then we dyed it. On Thursday we had a rippa rugby instructor to come to our school and teach us some rippa rugby skills. Our habit of mind is taking responsible risk's.

So What: I learnt that you need to keep your head up and your eyes open in rippa to find space. I learnt a lot of different 3D shapes.

Now What: I want to learn more 3D shapes next week. I want to learn more skills in rippa rugby.

Movie Theater


Wow I was blown away by the movie I had just seen at the movie theatre with my mum and dad. I saw Madagascar three, it was so epic. There was an Italian lady that tried to kill Marty, Melman, Gloria and Alex because they had just been caught in Monte Carlo on the streets. Thank fully they find a travelling circus that is leaving to London for their next show. There was a lion and a tiger that wouldn’t let them on the train. Luckily Alex dconvince the lion and tiger that they are Americano circus performers and thank fully they escaped from the evil Italian lady. Yeah! Now I can tell my friends how good the movie is.

Hockey Prezi

Lately we have been working on a prezi about an Olympic sport. Mrs Larsen gave us bunch of different sports. I chose hockey. We had to find how technology has affected this sport since the sport started up in the Olympics.

The Chinese Students visit



A few weeks ago some Chinese students come to our class to learn about English, how we communicate and how we do things. This my video on what we did.
