Kia ora. If you had a job what would that look like? I have two dream jobs that I would love to do. Two pretty different dream jobs one you stay in your house most of the time and the other flying around playing a game. If you haven’t guessed it yet it is a youtuber or a football player. I like both because I like gaming and football I play games whenever I can when my friends are playing but the football season is starting on saturdays and I love the seasons. if  I could choose which one I would choose A footballer because I love football my team is in the second division If you don’t know what I mean there is  10 – 12 divisions in a football juniors You would normally play a game then join the division you felt good in 1st is the best and 12th is the worst you climb up slowly on the leaderboard to get to the next division. but the hard thing about it is that you normally have to leave your home country at a young age when you get scouted. Like Ronaldo and Messi they had to leave where they lived so they could fulfill their dream. When Ronaldo was younger there was a game and A Sporting Lisbon  coach was there (Sporting Lisbon is a team in Portugal)  the coach said who ever got the most goals would join the Sporting Lisbon team Ronaldo was determined to get it. later into the game Ronaldo and his friend were tied on one goal each. Then they were on an attack his friend was through on goal then he passed to Ronaldo he could not believe it he gave up his chance to give it to Ronaldo Ronaldo was in the team he flew out of a little island called Madeira and landed in Portugal. I want to become A footballer but I bet it hurts.

What is your dream job?

Hello Today we will be talking about a thing called bootcamp

Every thursday since week 6 Joel and George started a thing called bootcamp every Pe lesson there was a year 8 group and a year 7 group me and most of my friends got put in the year 8 group because there wasn’t enough  year 8s. First lesson we did a few warm ups of exercises then getting into groups as quick as we could. at the end of the lesson we had to do a wall sit a very hard exercise where you have to sit against a wall it might sound easy, but it is not. It had started a minute in and no one had given up it was close but then 3 minutes in my legs were in pain but I was not giving up it got to the 4th minute and I wanted to give up so I survived for a bit then I gave up. I got a total of 4:48 and I was proud that is what happened on the first day of bootcamp.

Have you ever done a wall sit?

Over the term we were working on a Writing Workbook it had several challenges on spelling making complex sentences and more. After we had finished the Writing workbook we had to make another slide and put are five most favourite and we did the best things on it I had pretty fun overall but it was hard work.

Do you know the difference between a simple and a complex sentence?

This week we had Hamish Kerr come to our school for our Olympic day.At the start of the day he talked to us in the hall. At first he talked

about his early life and what sports he wanted to do at first he started at football and then went to rugby. he showed us videos of his winning jump it was impressive he jumped 2.34 meters to win the gold medal. he talked a bit more then he left and it was one of my favourite moments at school.

This week we went to Winter sports and we played 2 games As usual My team is called the Eagles. We played Bishopdale and St Martins. we played both of these teams before we tied to Bishopdale 1-1 and lost to Saint Martins  2-1. This time it was different in the Bishopdale game we won 3-0 with me scoring 1. In the next game we played St Martin and tied 1-1 I think we really improved with our teamwork and how we played on the pitch.

This week in PBL we learned about deforestation in a fun way Mr T let us go on Minecraft to find the rifts and build a farm and a water source. I learned a lot about how deforestation is making more factories which means more smoke in the atmosphere.

Have you seen how deforestation is affecting the world?

In PBL I have been learning about the Learning Pit

I had to create a poster using Google drawing to show people what the learning pit is the learning pit is where you could just go the easy but you have to go through the hard way by getting confused but you will fail but you can’t let that let you down

Something that I learned was that you have to fail to succeed 

Something I found interesting was that you can’t let your fails slow you down 

Something that I found challenging was being able to understand about how you have to fail to succeed 

Have you heard of the Learning Pit 

On Monday I went to the art gallery and it was lots of fun she showed us two paintings in the art gallery they were both very confusing cause you could see different things in the pictures  and it was cool later she let us paint we had to do are initials and then we had to paint the shapes that was left and it was really fun

Thanks for letting us go there

Do you want to go to the art gallery?

Yesterday we had a visit from the Science Roadshow. The focus of the session was Sound Waves. 

Some of the main messages about Sound Waves were Some of the messages is that if a car goes by you when it is near you it’s louder and when it’s farther away it’s not as loud and  because When it is farther away the sound waves are spread apart that makes the sound lower. 

Something I enjoyed the most was The moving eye because there were two face s one followed you and one didn’t I liked it because you had.  

My favourite part of the Science Roadshow when they showed acid because it melted something but could not dissolve jelly crystals. 

Something I will take away from this visit was I learnt about sound waves because they taught me about them.

Does it get louder when the car is near you or quieter? 

This week we did a thing about St Francis  my partner Was Niko We celebrated St Francis Of Assisi because it was his feast day

and this is it
