Averages W7 T4

This past week I have been going outside and shooting hoops to find the average of my shooting. The first day I got 4/10 Tuesday I got 6/10 Wednesday I got 4/10 Thursday I got 6/10 and Friday I got 7/10. I think that it was good because I improved by the time it got to Friday. My average in the end was 5.2 and I was shooting from 2.12 meters away from the hoop. Here is our video that we made. 

Reflection W6 T4

This week my Numeracy group has been focusing on ratios we had to make a fruit kebab but before we made it we had to make a ratio for how many of the different fruits and marshmallows we were putting on. Here is my google drawing of what my ratio was.

Grey District Athletics

On Wednesday it was grey district athletics. I got in for everything except discus. When we first got there Mrs Clark gave us instructions about where we are going first. 

The year 8 girls went to shot put first. I threw 5.90m and I came 3rd. My first throw was the only throw that counted because the other 2 were no throws. After I had my 3 throws we waited until the hooter went and then we walked over to do the 60m Sprint. 

Waiting at the starting line nervously I heard "On your marks, Get set, BOOM. I sprint off. At the end I put of foot over the line in first place! So I came first in that race. 

Then We went to have a rest before discus. I didn't do discus. I watched Mackenzie do it. 

Then we went to high jump I jumped 1.30m high. I came first again! Then we went to long jump. I jumped 4.00m. Which was the longest jump. Then we had another break until finally Our last race the 100m sprint. I won again with a time of 14.03 seconds!

At the very end we had a relay where the 2 fastest girls and 2 fastest boys from each age group and from each school race 100m each around ANZAC park. We came 1st in the relay as well.

That was my day! I loved athletics and I cant wait for West Coast Next Wednesday! I got in for everything I done!

Numeracy T4 W3

This week we have been learning about the different types of triangles. I have learnt that a Scalene has all different angles, an Isosceles has 2 angles the same size and 1 different, and an equilateral has all the same size sides. We also did some Maths Buddy tasks about angles and I got 10/10 in all 4 of them. I liked learning about triangles because it was really easy to pick up. Here are some pictures of the different types of triangles.

Narrative Horror Writing T4 W3

This week since it was Halloween on Wednesday, our class got to do Horror Narrative Writing . I liked writing mine and I thought it was fun. For Narrative Writing you need to have good detail and descriptive words to pull the reader in! Here is my Writing.



CREEEKKKK…


As I am walking across the slippery lino, the floorboards are creaking like an old man's bones cracking as he gets up out of his seat. Then, I hear a loud bang in the back of the abandoned house. My heart is beating faster than a cheetah can run. I run out the back door and find myself in a cemetery. All of the gravestones are covered in spider webs.


To my surprise a ghost rises from one of the graves and whispers- “Go to the piano inside OR ELSE!” For a split second I thought I was just tripping out but then it came up again and yelled “YOU WILL FLOAT TOO!!!” That was when my bones almost jumped out of my skin in fear that if I didn't go to this piano he is talking about I will float for the rest of eternity  just like him…


After he goes back down into his grave, a light breeze hits me. I decide that I should go back into the abandoned house and find this piano. I open the back door… SQUWEEEKKK, just like a mouse.


I go in and see a shadow move. Its big. It's scary.  I keep walking and I feel like someone or something is following me. The thought of walking around this damp empty house trying to find a piano, gives me the shivers. Still walking down a rather large hallway I spot a door at the end.


Should I open it? That door will be way too small to fit a piano in it anyways. I hear music softly playing, I go up the old creaky stairs, Just waiting for something to jump out at me and grab me. The ghost that I saw earlier comes out of the stairs and says “1 Hour, Just remember, YOU'LL   FLOAT TOO!” Blood Started OOOZING out of his mouth as he disappears into thin air.


I Finally find the piano up stairs, It's playing music, it sounds really scary like its trying to tell me something. I can hear my heavy breathing louder then I could before. Well I found the piano so does this mean that I can go? Am I free? Of Course, “Again out of nowhere the ghost comes up and says listen to the piano to find your next clue time is ticking.”


I say “I don't want to play anymore please please please!” But he doesn't reply he is gone. This is a silly game I don't like it! How do I get out of it? Suddenly the piano stops. Everything is quiet. Its DEAD silent.
The Possessed Ghost comes out of nowhere and starts attacking me, Beating, Biting, Strangling me… I must of run out of time. My blood flow has stopped, I think I’m dead but I'm not certain.


I  Can't        Fight Back…
