The book I read today was called Earthquake, it's about how a family in Christchurch was experiencing an earthquake. The earthquake was so bad that it caused the power and water to stop working.  The family had a big crack through the house that made it hard for them to enter through the door so they had to enter through the window and their backyard was filled with sand and mud.

Maths review 1/04/22

 I explored 2048 and found it really interesting and fun. Two wonderful aspects of this math game I enjoyed are that sometimes it can get challenging and that you need to add the numbers together to make the number 2048 or just may go over. A skill you can develop while using 2048 is getting to learn your addition and subtraction and you may also become a little competitive.  2048 game

99 Maths

 

The maths was fun but it was also causes stress because sometimes when you try to press 8 it will make you press 9 instead. Even if i didnt get a high score i'll still give it another try.

A Funny Story

 I positioned myself nervously into the go cart ready to start my adventure. As I held tightly onto the handle and pulled it back. It sure was scary but fun at the same time I had to go through tracks that looked like real roads . It had many trees that were as tall as a giraffe and little to no flowers. The ground was filled with dead leaves that had fallen off the branches as well as green bright grass that looked as if they had been painted with green paint.


The whole track looked like a forest. While I was riding It felt as if I was driving a motorcycle. Since I was the first one to go, following behind was my family so I was pretty confident I will make it to the end first. I drove past people who were bleeding. I Immediately knew that it was from the go cart since the owner had told me to be careful. I started to drive safely down the tracks; well I thought I was.


I looked behind me and saw that my family was almost catching up to me. I took an irresponsible turn and pulled the Handle of the go cart far back, making me go fast. I looked back at them and laughed, not knowing that I was about to enter the tunnel. I immediately turned forward as I had seen nothing but darkness. I couldn't see where the handle was placed since the only light shining was at the end of the tunnel.


I went super fast through the tunnel not realizing the next thing I was about to experience. I finally got out of the tunnel safely, having the sunlight shine and letting me get a grip of the go cart handle. I managed to slow it down but I still  couldn’t control it. I accidentally crashed into the cones and later on found myself laying on the side of the track not even making it to the end. 



I never gave up and still drove like nothing happened. I finally made it to the end and without knowing there were hidden cameras that took photos of people's reaction. I took one look at the photos and laughed my way out of the skyline.

CHINA


 Did you know that the capital city  of China is beijing? China also won 51 medals. My report is about how China has been involved in the Olympics and many other things about china. 


SOME THINGS ABOUT CHINA

China is the most populated country in the world and also the third largest country. China's new years last for 15 years.  Did you know that China's bailong elevator sometimes wears armers made out of paper.  


HISTORY OF CHINA BEING IN THE OLYMPIC

The people’ Republic of China has won more Olympic medals in table tennis and badminton than any other NOC.  China competed at the Olympic Games under the name of the People's Republic of China (PRC) for the first time in 1952, at the Summer Games in Helsinki.


HOW IS CHINA DOING SO FAR IN THE OLYMPICS

China has earned  32 gold medals, 21 silver and 16 Bronze  so all together is 62, China's women teams Sprint won in track cycling and got first place gold in the finals 2021, china also won in weight lifting and got 1st place in the olympics, in shooting china won again and won another gold medal and got 1st place.

My report on Volleyball

VolleyBall

 

Keep your head high and work hard every day, because you’ll never get that day back by Lloy Ball.”   It means to not face negativity and to always keep thinking positive you will never get that day back. I will be talking about volleyball, rules and much more. Did you know that  Most volleyball players jump about 300 times a match CRAZY right.

 

Volleyball is a very amazing sport but it's a little difficult because of how many rules the creator had come up with. Some of the rules are basically 6 players on a team, 3 on the front row and 3 on the back row.Maximum of three hits per side.A ball is "out" if it hits an antennae, the floor completely outside the court,any of the net or cables outside the antennae.the referee stand or pole,the ceiling above a non-playable area.Ball may be played off the net during a volley and on a serve. A ball hitting a boundary line is in.Player may not hit the ball twice in succession A block does not count as a hit.

 

I'm going to  be talking about the history of volleyball and how New Zealand has been involved in this sport. Volleyball was invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan, physical director of the Young Men's Christian Association YMCA in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It was designed as an indoor sport for businessmen who found the new game of basketball too vigorous.

 

New Zealanders have been involved in volleyball because of the people that played it like Shaunna Polley, Amy Robinson, Anna Harrison and many more other people. Although we haven't won any medals in volleyball, New Zealand players are still trying their best. 

Volleyball made its Olympic debut at the 1964 Games in Tokyo and remember There's nothing worse than the feeling of wishing you had another chance at a play because you weren't ready by  Karch Kiraly.

Whale Watching

 31.5.2021                                           The Wonderful Whale Watch








Blash Blash as the whales Jump up and dive into the water.The air around me is  filled with salt water from the dark blue ocean. Upon the mountains I am there with my binoculars looking beneath me at the wonderful shine of the whales. The whales are dark and shiny. It looked like if you were to touch them they would be slimy.  


I could see the whales Splashing water out of their blowholes. It look like it touched the clouds but almost. In the blue wide ocean there are creatures surrounding the whales like they  were some kind of kings. It is so satisfying watching the whales dive into the ocean and seeing the clearness of the water shot into the sky and back down.


Couple of hours passed by and it was starting to get dark and the whales had no time to do there cool tricks.
