Gangsta granny blog post

Gangsta granny:  

This book is about a boy called Ben, he does not like going to his grannys house. Because she just feeds him cabbage meals and mostly cabbage soup, and they just play scrabble and her T.V has been broken since the 1980s. One day he called his parents to come and pick him up but his parents disapprove.And he thinks his granny heard since he does not hear snoring. The next morning his granny makes him some eggs which he also does not like and he throws it out the window. Then he goes into the cupboard and goes into the biscuit tin where he knows there will be some biscuits. But to his surprise there's jewels bunched up together in the tin. When his parents pick him up he asks to go to her house the next day ( because he was curious about the jewels) but  to his  surprise his granny was going out.

I would recommend this book to kids around my age, as it is funny and serious at times.I also like this book because it is a good read. I would reccomend this a 10 out of 10.

Plus	Minus	Interesting
This is my plus I enjoyed when you had to make sort of like a parachute so the egg would not break. My team made a parachute and but he egg in a little pouch so it would not break.In the end ours did not break and only the crazy kiwis and the wonders of the world egg broke. And I liked it where you had to make a boat and put a  little mini figure chicken and a cricket ball. And it has to float by itself. For this challenge I think you had to use connecting. Because you had to connect with the people you were working with. This is probably my best plus. I liked this one because you had to feel and try and smell the things. I got 1 and a half points  for my team. So I really liked it.	This week I have not had a minus so it has gone really well.	I found doing the balloon challenge really interesting since you had to tape the balloons together. Without it being taped to the ground. My group found it quite hard to do.And for this challenge I think you had to use resilience because it would keep on breaking. I found noughts and crosses really interesting.Because you had to run up and down the concrete putting the bibs on the place you wanted. Trying to get three in a row. I also found it quite interesting how we came up with the team name. Crazy Minds was our team name

Ice skating

     Ice skating

I went ice skating on Thursday on the 9/6/2016 I really liked it. At first it was harder then it got easier I went at 12 to 1 pm. I was better than quite a lot of kids since I have roller blades. So I had already practised more than the other kids had.

I liked how there was big inflatable sides that you could  hold onto it you were just learning and it was okay if you just bumped into them it would be okay. When you were ice skating  you are not supposed to lift your feet off the ground. So you just pushed yourself instead of walking.

Jake and I were racing a lot and falling over a lot, I would literally  fall over every 2 seconds.And when you fell over you had to get up as fast as you could that was okay because I fell over a lot. But if one of the ice skates went over your hand your hand would not be there and it would be messy.

Art reflection

Art reflection

This term  for art we did string art and I did the flash symbol. Because he is my favourite superhero and I painted the background red because we could not string it. I have not finished because it kept on  falling off the nails so it was pretty hard. But I think it will come out brilliant in the end with the flash symbol yellow then the circle black and the background red. I think I should be able to finish it on Wednesday and be able to bring it home if we will bring them home this week.
