Whangarei

My holiday

It started off as  a normal weekend, just walking down the beach and all of a sudden my mum’s phone buzzed like a bee. She had just got a text message saying,’  we are going to Whangarei ‘

So we ran home excitedly. I was pumped to see the glory of Whangarei. When we got home, I got my stuff ready as quick as a leopard. My mum said we were leaving in about an hour. BUT it turned out we did not leave until 7.30pm.

As soon as we woke in the morning , it was a phenomenal day. So we ran across the road to the beach to play some outstanding football. And we did for the first ten minutes and then it started to pour down it was heavier than  sacks filled with rocks. I was bummed that we could not play.

We ran inside to get dry because we were soaked. Then we watched a movie called Madagascar 3 Europe’s most wanted.  Even though I have seen it before but it is a great movie. My favorite part is when the plane crashes in the jungle where Alex’s family is.

Later we went to get some food but instead of food I got some delicious lollies. I got a bag of lollies and my mum and my brother had zombie chews. We were slowly eating our lollies on the long walk and of course on they way back there was torrential rain.

So although the weather was bad we all had a fantastic time. I would love to go again in SUMMER when it is not raining.  

                                 

      

Soccer

How to play soccer?

Soccer is a game played all around the world. It is every day sport in Brazil , Spain and Germany they will be playing it all day and every day. Soccer is played with goals and a round ball.

The rules in soccer are, you can not tackle the player with your hands , you can not touch the ball with your hands unless you are the keeper. You can not slide tackle with your studs up. If you get two yellow cards you going to be sent off. Or a red card is just straight off. You can  not pull people’s shirt or you will be sent off. Those are all the basics that you need to know.

First you start off with the ball in  the center of the field  with the ball on the floor. Then you pass the ball to the person beside you when the whistle blows. You have to try and score a goal by passing to your teammates so that your team can shot and maybe score. There is a keeper that will stand in the goal box and try save the ball with his hands or feet. The keeper can catch the ball or hit it out of the box with his hands.

Next if the ball goes out of play like on the sideline then it is a throw in for the opposite team. You can not take your feet off the ground when you throw the ball. Also it has to be an overarm throw or it gets handed over to the other team. Also if you kick it out where you are defending then they get a  corner kick. So you put it on the corner and try and get it into the box so your team can score.

So that is how to play soccer/football I think it is a great game to play.  I think you should play this outstanding game.

Basic facts

W.A.L.T play a fraction game.

This game is about adding the denominator and then writing the numerator altogether. I found it tricky because the timer goes really fast. I would like to do a geometry one of these next time. And also get faster to beat the clock.

Shapes

W.A.L.T- learn my shapes on a game

This game is all about geometry. Because all you are doing is recognizing the shapes. I found it easy because I knew all the shapes. I really like this game and I would like to do it again and again to get faster at it, and a bit better.  Next I would like to learn angles.
