Performs

In two weeks College Street Normal School will be in the Regent Theatre performing Cinderella and Rockerfella.  My part is the boys dance. Room 20 Room 9 and Room 10/11 boys are in the dance too. Our coach is Mr R. He did this last year for the year 6s too, so he has had experience. The  codename of our dance was "Volleyball" to keep it a secret.

The first time we did it we were terrible at it! When we had a look at ourselves, we thought, "What are we doing?" To improve our dance performance, we had to practise at lunch time on Tuesday's. The first time we practised, we had to go over it so many times, but now, after four weeks of practise, we are really good according to Mr R.

For the practice we sometimes go into the hall and perform in front of an audience.  Then we have to sit down and watch the next act.  I like acting in it rather than watching the performances.

This in going to be the first time I have been on stage in my entire life. I am feeling happy, but nervous. I can't want until we go on stage!

My Favourite Thing about Grill 2.0

My favourite thing about Grill is there are more ways of learning than just the traditional way, like Classroom. It is not the classroom we work in, it is a digital app that the teachers make for us. There are all sorts of tasks you have to do over the week.  There is a homework page and a maths page and many more. The first time I started Classroom I would get stuck easily but in a couple of days I got it sorted.

There is a new thing I will talk about in Classroom and it is Fast track.  It is the biggest task to do in Classroom because it is your weekly list of tasks to complete.  You can keep track of what you have done with Fast track and what you have not done. You need to put down the link to the task you have done and highlight it green.

I like being able to choose what I do, when I do it and who I do it with.  It helps me become a flexible and independent learner.  Fast track motivates me to complete my tasks because it is my responsibility to make sure I do everything that I am meant to do.

Below is an example of what Fast track looks like.

Finger Spelling Ben

On Monday at 2.30pm we had to show our homework to the teacher. One task was to spell our name with sign language my name would be Ben. It wasn't long tall I found out how to spell my name because it is very short. But some people struggled to find and remember there name. Am I am lucky or not because i have a short name .

Golf time

"Yay, it is sports rotations today!" If you don't know what sport rotations are, it means each Tuesday is like having two hours more play time. But you get told what sports you have two do first. We got golf then hockey we head over to golf. It is behind the court on the field. Are teacher for golf it Rhye. He tort me how to hit a ball far. It is my favourite sport so I ignored it. our school is really lucky because sport coaches come around and teach as thing about different sports . 

Golf is my favourite sport because it is not a team game. I play golf a lot too and it is fun trying to hit the target. Because the target is fluffy a tennis ball will stick on. You don't half to hit the target you can just hit as far as you can and that is what I do sometimes. If you are not good at team games you should .

Road trip

What a drive to taupo I am finally here with my cousin and my nana and pop. We stayed in a nice hotel and there was a spa pool in side. The first day we unpack and went to the beach and there was a little tube that brings hot water to the beach. We sat down in it. It is so hot that you could burn you self . 

Next day we went on the luge in rotorua and on the zipline. first we went on the luge. I wanted to go down first because I want to beat my cousin a lot and I try and I did beat my cousin and my pop i was in the lead for the all the time. If you was there i think you would beat me because i went very slow for my first ride we I was here . Coming up the chair left i heard people screaming coming down the zipline after we did all the rides we went on this tree walk it was right right up in the trees it was called the redwood walk . after that we just went home and went on the segway for the first time. it was so cool that i had to go second and again then we had to go next day we went to mini golf i got 1 hole in 1.

Swimming Sports

What a day at swimming sports! We had a range of choices for events, but we could only enter two. I chose 25m Backstroke and 25m Freestyle. We did non-championship races first. I did backstroke in the non-championship races, then you could get into Championship races.

I got into both the freestyle and backstroke championship finals.
My first races was freestyle I was racing Scott and cole they are really good swimmers they train 4 hours a week and so I came fourth. In my other race I was racing Scott and I vs them last year and I won and this year i lost to him but I came second .

I was so happy I could not talk. but then we had a relay race. My house had to go on the donut and we lost that race because it is so hard to go fast on the donuts and I am going to get a silver medal for caking second in my race.
