Reflection Of Netbook

This Year was easy with netbooks because of last year and at home. The only thing that I think the netbooks need are better mouse pads because they wear out too easy. If I could design my netbook to make it better I would resize it.

I like browsing the internet to research for things about my homework, and playing games. They are little which I think is good because it is easy to carry. The keyboard is tiny compared to my laptop at home. Other than that I love my netbook.

Year Seven Challenge

Yesterday on the 29th of november all the year 7’s had an awesome challenge that required us to use our imaginations. We had to make a christmas tree for task one. Sing a christmas carol for task two. And a slingshot challenge followed by the secret circle for task three.

After we thought about it for 10 or so minutes we then started to get along with our tree. Our group struggled because Ahsin was putting everyone off but in the end we finished. The tree looked awesome because of the decorations but we didn’t place anything.  

Two more minutes and it would be time to sing a carol. We thought we were going to ace it but instead we failed. My group and I laughed way too much because of Ahsin and his paper sword. Our carol sucked!

After morning tea for task three was a slingshot challenge and secret circle. We had to pick someone who was good on the shooting and one on the catching. Our whole team had to make a circle by sitting on each other’s knees. We didn’t communicate or work as a team which caused us to fail and not place anything.

Overall I think the day was awesome because it made us use our imagination and it was different. From doing the challenge it showed me how to construct a steady circle from sitting on each other's knees.

Bush Walk

On a day when the sky was dim and the sun was shining faintly my family and I decided to go on a hike because we were bored. We researched to find out a good route to go on. Finally we found one that was going through a forest. The moment we got there the sun started to shine brightly and the sky was now beautiful.

We were walking along when suddenly we found a map of the route we were taking. We saw that the whole hike would take three hours so we got prepared with our training clothes. I was in the appropriate clothing for this while my dad and sister were still thinking about what to wear.

I hopped out of the car and within three minutes I had got to the map. Then my sister came along and then of course my dad. The starting point looked the hardest but turned out to be quite easy. I was huffing and puffing after two hours but I didn’t give up.

We had a little break. We noticed that my sister was nowhere to be found. She had either walked ahead or had taken the wrong path. We decided to keep going to see if she would be up ahead. We shouted and shouted “Where are you”, but there was no reply. We got to the end. There she was waiting for us. She then said “I went the fast way it only took 30 minutes”, and then started to laugh.

We got home and had a talk about what happened today. My dad said to never walk off alone especially if your only nine. She then said sorry and we went to bed.
