Rumbustification

On Friday we had Rumbustification day. One of my favourite activities were the crazy bikes. The bikes were all placed in the middle so when you got off you could pick another bike without a bike running you over. 

When you got a bike you had to go around in a circle, and you had to go a certain speed so you wouldn't crash into anyone. My favourite bike was the two person one with the seat next to you. Most of the time I had to push Ava around. My legs started to hurt. We switched between bikes a lot, so other people would be able to have a turn. Me and Ava mostly switched between two people bikes. 

My favourite part was the bouncy castle. It was a superhero one. We had to wait in the line for so long, 10 minutes or so. I went on the bouncy castle with Ava. You had to go with a group of like 9. And your time was limited. The lady stood there with her phone in her hand and set the timer when everyone was inside.

When you walked into the bouncy castle there was these blow up stick things that you could run into and bounce on, there was a basketball hoop and also stairs that lead to a slide that you go down whenever you want and when you have to get off. I mostly went down the slide, and bounced around in the main part.

Yr8 Formal

Last night we had yr 8 leavers formal. You could arrive from 6-6:30pm. I came with Ava and Alexa. 

When you arrived you had to get a photo taken. Then you could dance or sit down. I hung out with Ava and Alexa. You listened to music when you waited for dinner to start. 

When dinner was called you went into the library where the tables were set out. You got to choose where you wanted to sit. For dinner I had bread roll, pulled pork and potato salad with sprite and orange juice. Then it was dessert. You could choose from blueberry cake or this other one with ice cream. I didn't have any. 

Then after dinner you got to do whatever you wanted, like dance, listen to music and talk with your friends. 

After like an hour or so, it was time to get picked up. At around 9:00 pm. 

How does my work show belonging

Mine and Ava's work shows belonging because we made docs of what our parents used to listen to when they were our age. Then we listed all the songs underneath the artists. 

 

Options

For options I'm in a group with Ava. We're making a playlist from our grandparents and parents listened to when they were younger.

fraction trees

 

This is my fraction tree. We had to divide it into quarters. I chose to divide 72.

Today in languages I learn't new words such as naranja, azucar and vaso. Vaso means glass, naranja means orange and azcuar means sugar.
