AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE IO, IO, IO AUSTRALIA HERE WE COME !!!!!

FINALLY IT'S OVER, THE X COUNTRY IS OVER HOOORAY !!!!!!!!!!!!

“On your marks, get set, GO !” Whaea Rosina shut those blocks together like a machine with

hands clapping. I jogged all the way up to the trees then I just shut down automatically.

Walking off Kohl-lee, Kiarra and Charlie were jogging in front while Neko and Rangi were

behind me.

As soon I got to the hill I sprinted off and by the time I got their I failed once again to beat

Kohl-lee and her crew. In my mind I was saying

”Come on you can lose you can lose this stupid race and get back”

When I came down the hill and started jogging I sprinted off leaving Neko behind.

Whaea Gaylene was cheering for me but I didn’t bother I just keep going.

As I was coming up to everyone they were cheering

”RUN TRISTAN, RUN LOOK BEHIND YOU THEIR COMING !”

Then I just jogging again Whaea Rosina had said to me if I wanted to do another lap

and I said ok so I slow jogged towards the trees until something hit me “AHHH shit that hurts Ahhh”

I had a stitch on the right side of my stomach. I was in pain through the whole way through the

second lap.

But as I was walking taking in deep deep breaths and breathing all out the pain

started to go and that’s when I had the speed to boost it straight up the hill.

And walk all the way down. Then I came up to Whaea Gaylene once again but I didn’t try at all

I was only taking my time. Then when I was almost finished I acted like I had a stitch then

jogged past.

Finally we were heading back to school I drunk my water bottle dry and the water

fountains had long as lines waiting or more like hurrying because their are some who

take their time and their are some who hurry them along. When I got home I played and went

into the shower and hopped into bed. THE END !

Happy Grandparents Day

DRAGON VS BOSS BABY OMG !!!!!!!!!!

WALT: create a short clip using stop motion.
SC: I will

• make short movements for each shot

What I discovered today was to always press capture then move it because I always seem to press capture all the time and it keeps getting my hands in the way. What worked was how you move your characters and using little steps for each shot. I found this very simple but once you make more it will get so difficult your arms will get tired like those "Disney Animations"

Speech Critique

Today my whole classroom stood up to say there speeches. Everyone was nervous at the time we had to stand up in front of a classroom and say our speeches. When I stood up I was so nervous I felt like sitting back down because I thought I was going to muck up the whole thing but I didn't.

The real challenging part is when you have to stand in front of the teacher and the students. Everyone will look at you while your saying it so it doesn't matter if you do it or not. My speech was about "Why bullying should stop in every school around the world." I think I did alright I just needed to show more expression like really trying to get in there and let it out and more facial expression. But I think I did great actually.

LOOK GUYS ITS MINECRAFT FOR FREE!!!!!!!!

We have been learning to code.  The coding I chose was MINECRAFT.
I enjoyed playing minecraft because it's fun to play and you can add blocks to make a bridge.
It was a little challenging but I got through and my friend who was playing as well was kohl-lee.
I helped my friend get through most of the levels on this code game.
I didn't need help with anything because I had already knew how to code.
It took me 35 minutes to finish the 12 stages.  When I finished the 12 stages I got a certificate.  I took screenshots as I worked my way through the stages.  When you look at the screenshots you can see how I used blocks to create the code which made bridges and to brake down the blocks.
