Week 8 term 1

This week I started a book review and my book is called Dogs Dont Tell Jokes by Louis Sachar. I haven’t done a book review before so I’m learning how to do one. you have to write a little bit about the book and then your opinion. I also learnt how to make pizza snacks and a milkshake. To make pizza snacks you firstly have to get the buns and slice all the vegetables and then stick on the cheese along with the veges and then grill it and its ready to eat. I’ve learnt how to do factorials in maths as well. If its a 3 that means 1x2x3 and if its 4 its 1x2x3x4.

my goal is to finish my reading work before its due so Im up to date.

I will do this by ignoring everyone around me and staying on task.

Week 7 Term 1

This week I learnt in maths about integers. Integers are negative and positive numbers and how to multiply, divide, minus and add them together. If you multiply a positive and a negative number it will be a negative number      e.g -7 x +4 = -28.

My goal is to get better at dividing negative and positive numbers.

I will achieve this by practising them.

biscuiting

Standing in the stinging ice-cold air I walked forward ready to face one of my biggest fears yet. I stepped into the water and then was out quicker than a flash of lightning. I saw other people freezing and shivering around me and just like me they didn’t know what they were in for. It was my turn to go on but I refused, so with a bit of arguing and discussing who went on the biscuit, I got to stay off. I asked if I could ride in the boat and see what it was like.

We were in the middle off the lake and we started to gain some speed. I spun aroundand saw the people on the biscuit bumping around crazily. I turned back around and looked out front for a while. I could feel the wind blowing in my face. We rounded a bend at a high speed and saw the finish I looked over the edge of the boat and saw  some yucky green weed in the lake, disgusting! I looked back and saw something horrid and gnarly. One guy was getting hammered by all the waves and bumps. I blinked and then he was gone quick as a flash. The boat slowed to a stop and the guy that fell off climbed back on, but he had weeds all over him.

When it was my turn I slowly crept towards biscuit. Next thing you know I was on the biscuit picking up speed and rounding corners. My hair was flying around my face. I was too terrified to even say stop. My grip tightened and my body stuck to the biscuit, I stuck my head down and we went EVEN faster! We rounded another bend and then the bumps came. I flew left and flew right and then my feet were in the water. I  had one hand in the water ready to let go but something was telling me not  to, at least, not yet. I heard laughing in the back ground. I gripped back on and pulled myself up. I was slowing down and then I slowed to a stop. I had made the death     ride. That was awsome can i do it again.

Abseiling

So there I was walking ever so slowly up the muddy hill thinking what crazy person got me in to this mess. Then I thought again. Well it is school camp so we have to do this stuff. Half way up the steep muddy hill. Quick it’s not too late to turn around I thought, but I didn’t want everyone to think I was scared. So I kept walking. I saw beautiful trees and other people abseiling off smaller and less dangerous cliffs, but I was going to the biggest one yet. PAPA BEAR!!!

In what seemed like an hour I was up. I looked down, the only thing I ended up with was a saw and aching stomach and don’t forget excited. Just then everything went a bit blurry. There was a fuzzy thing talking to me but I couldn’t hear it because everything went quiet. My heart was racing. The fuzzy thing said “Are you ready to go down”. I said “yeah”. My sight came back and the fuzzy thing became clear. He clipped me on and off the cliff I went.

 I was trying to look down but I was getting a major wedgie. Down, down, down I went, on to the slippery gravel bit and slid down that. Then I got to a vertical wall. “What” I said out loud. Down I went, with a bit of trouble but I came out of that alive. I let out a bit of rope and then the ground slipped from under me. Next thing you know I was flying, I looked down and saw that I was on another wall that had big spikes sticking out of it. I was half way down the spiky wall and the next thing you know, I was in a bit of a mess I pushed myself off the wall and made it off. I looked back; I was only a couple of steps away. I got down and the teachers started hugging me, but I made it so I was alright. Yeah.
