My Birthday Party!
On Friday the 13th of May I had my birthday party.
I had it at wave rave at the lido aquatic centre.It was so fun there was foam,inflatables,and lollies,
I got out of the car and helped my mum carry some things I picked up the birthday cake.I wanted to eat it so bad the smell of the velvet cake I imagined the taste in my mouth yum yum!
The sliding doors opened I felt and urge of excitement ruining through my veins we proceeded towards the counter and paid.We found our table and set up. Finally my friends were all here Dom,Tyler B,Ben,Hyacinthe,Terado,We decided that we should go in spa first usually its 16 year olds only but because it is wave rave they let you in if you are ten and up.We all stepped into the spa I was so relaxed and tired.A couple of minutes later my friends had the idea that we should go on the gigantic inflatable I did not agree with that idea because I was so relaxed and comfortable the spa was so hypnotic.But I had not tried the inflatable so I got out and went.
It was my turn finally the life guard said go and I sprinted to the first obstacle climbed up it and jumped down and slid.Then the second obstacle was a weaving through the giant inflatable pillars the last obstacle I climbed all the way up looked down it was a jump into the water. I did a huge jump into the water and watched my friends do it and cheered them on.
All of my friends and me entered a competition that you had to have both hands behind you back and there was a chocolate fish on a string and who ever ate it first wins. The prize was a mini nerf gun.Terado came first we all rushed over to congratulate him.
We had some more party food but then eventually it was time for my friends to go home unfortunately we were all very tired because it was nine o'clock at night.I said by to all my friends and then helped my mum pack up all the leftover pizza and lollies and then drove of.
I can't wait till my next birthday.

Traditional Teaching Style CSI
TTS means Traditional Teaching Style. It was a block where we were taught in a traditional teaching style. We were sitting in named desks, with straight backs and weren’t allowed to talk. The work was all out of textbooks and we even had to do dictionary skills.
TTS was to show us how school used to be and to build our knowledge of student agency.
A CSI is thinking tool that we use after an event to show our thinking about what happened. C stands for Colour, the colour you think of when thinking about the event. S stands for Symbol, the symbol you think of when thinking about the event. I stands for Image, the image you think of when thinking about the event.
This is the CSI I did after TTS and it shows my thinking about what happened.
This is the CSI I did about learning in GRi11, and it shows how I think about it.

Sports Rotations
At our school we have sports rotations. Sports rotations is a block where we learn different sports from coaches (professional and student coaches). It is on Tuesday afternoons and it includes soccer, golf, hockey, badminton, tennis, circuits, touch, table tennis, basketball and games.
My favourite sport in sports rotation is badminton. It is awesome when you have a long rally with the other player. It also awesome when it gets competitive and the other team member does tricks to get you out. Badminton is coached by Joonoh and Anneka. I have learnt so much from them about badminton and how to play the game.

I wish we had cricket for a sports rotation we did have it once. I have got a plan of how it would be set up. There would be a bat on one side with a tee and on the other side a ball. You would hit the ball off the tee to your partner and repeat 30 times, that way every kid would get a long go. They could also practice throwing, balling and catching.

My Term Holidays.
In my term holidays I went to my holiday programme and and there we do really fun stuff like sports stars.Sports stars is when in the afternoon the supervisors set up an obstacle course that we have to get through.We do two activities a day and they are action packed.The last day that I came we had van rely.Van rely is when there are 5 or 6 vans and they do a scavenger hunt. We have a list per van and we have to get all the items on the list.Who ever gets back first wins everyone wants to win so we take risks so we can get ahead.
We all had the idea that when the supervisor said go that we would drive on the grass onto the road"..3...2...1 GO!" the supervisor said."Full speed ahead!" I said we drove over the grass we all clapped in excitement.We were in second place now we all were excited that we were second we though that we should do the easy things first and then do the other ones last. finally we had finished our list and were racing back to the programme. We were pulling in to the car park....
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! we were last but how? Wait a minute they are only four vans here we were weren't at lest we were not last. we got out into the hall they said "ha ha your last!" we explained that there were only four vans and we were the forth one we settled down and played a game.
And that was my holidays.
