The island


Hi this task was based on a island picture I hope you enjoy.


I see nature and the island as well as cliffs with beautiful sunshine . I see a blue gorges ocean with sailboats and a yacht . I sweep my eyes  to the bottom to sea a few sailboats and clear gorges ocean. I see a beautiful island with white cliffs green bushes and some houses.     


My name is Robb he is tall 6 foot 8 with grey skin who works in a ice cream store. He was a great standout employee who wants to get promoted. He has a hobbie which is playing video games like call of duty of fortnite. And he was good nobody on the island was even close to where he is.  


My boss does not like me because i always clap him in fortnite and cod. When ever we vs each other he says he will fire me when he losses but never happens. Everyone always tells me to stand up for myself but I can not then I will be fired. My girlfriend wants to move of the island but we do not have enough money. My boss also badmouths me to the whole island which is why I do not leave the house much. 



But my boss is moving of the island In 2 weeks and he says he might promote me  if I am a good employee. after 2 weeks he decided he would promote me and my girlfriend said she will stay here with me. And my girlfriend bought a Xbox so she could play fortnite with me and I will go easy.  and I will play with kid when he is old enough.

Summer learning journey

Hello Emma I go to Hornby High School and I am in the Summer Learning Journey. The prizes sound very interesting and everybody here wants them. One thing I think everybody is looking forward to is to see who gets the most points. The best thing about the summer learning journey is the fact that it keeps your reading and writing levels up. I have been in the summer learning journey twice.


Emma why did you join the summer learning journey and what year did you join?

China

This is about a law that was in place a while ago in china

China is the most populated country in the world and a bit ago you could only have 1 child because the world was overpopulated. There is a birth every single second worldwide. The world is overpopulated there is not enough space in china people often there would be a lot of pressure on the one child to look after his/her parents. Lots of people would think this is a dumb law but I think the law was put in place for a reason. Another reason why the law was good was it made the country richer and the families.







   Here a some reasons why the law should be in place  


The world is overpopulated with too many people there is 2 births every few seconds in china. which is
lots if you think about it so in china there is so many people if you look down below you will see a link to
 China population .






Children cost lots of money so families with lots of kids could go homeless 

There would not be enough room in the world




joker running a hotel

In the dark alley there was a clown the joker who ran a hotel but his guests would leave scared he would bring them toes and eyes of other victims. So when no one came to the hotel he lived in the alley anyone who passed he would make them live in the hotel forever and the joker was immortal  but some escaped then everyone else escaped. he could just put them back in the hotel again because they where old. but when the world ended joker was the only one alive.





He became sane again be

Fantastic Mr Fox part 2 post

This is a part 2 to my other blog post about my book I finished the book a while ago now I have to do this post  THIS IS A LINK TO A DLO  . My DLO I would really recommend that you watch the movie and read the book.The book is very similar to the movie the Mr Fox steals food from the farmers Boggis Bunce and Bean so the farmers shoot Mr fox tail. Then they dig his house with diggers after that the farmers blow up the house with TNT, Soon the foxes steal all the food from the farmers farms and eat it all in a giant feast. 



My favourite character  was Mr Fox because he was smart.

reflection on PE groups

Hello Bloggers, I am telling you about PE during this blog. This is meant to be a reflection on Hurumanu for the past term. I hope after this you enjoy reading my blog. My group is called Dragons while the other groups are called Sticky rice, crispy chicken, french fries and Celtics. At the end of Hurumanu 2019 I think believe we had a good lesson and it was very successful. I feel I contributed by teaching everyone about dodgeball. This was very hard and my role was to be the dodgeball teacher for the class.

Something I would do differently was make people do more exercise or more warm ups. I wish this Hurumanu was a even more successful and I would love to do this more in year 9. I learned that dodge ball is a competitive sport and that tournaments are held all around the world. I also learned dodge- ball involves a lot of different strategies

Other sports we did were bench ball, softball, dodge ball and basketball. All sports we did required using a ball. 

I really enjoyed this and would love to play sport more.

Roald Dahl Fantastic Mr Fox

Image result for fantastic mr fox book
I have been reading fantastic Mr fox it has been a very entertaining book about 3 farmers trying to kill a fox that has been eating their animals. The farmers are Boggis Bunce and Bean. At one point they shot the tail of Mr fox. What the family does is they dig very far down. When the farmers try to dig them out of their house the farmers are all mean. Boggis is very fat he eats 12 chickens a day. Bunce is a dwarf he eats doughnuts with goose livers in them and bean does not eat food at all he lives off cider that he makes. The part that I found most interesting was when bean said he lived off cider. I wonder if Boggis would eat his own chicken or buy them.

My C.I.P all blacks

In CIP we have been doing some All Black stuff last week and I think that is super cool that we have got an reply from one of the All Blacks the All Black replied to us was Anton and someone in TZ is actually related to an all Black. I wonder if we would get a comment from every all an entire team one that would be really good. I think that Beauden  Barrett is very nice to be raising money for his sister with down syndrome.

P.E hurumanu dodge ball practise

Today In hurumanu we have been doing some dodge ball stuff we did our drills which was very fun and interesting we mostly just practices our throwing and catching skills. We had to buddy up with some other people in our group for some of the exercises but that is nothing to bad  we had to so a few other tweaks and changes when we did our drills we did something where we threw a ball at the wall as high as I  could and try to catch it I think that was my favourite drill I still am keen to play the other games that some the other teams have done we mostly know how to play them but the other teams might have made some different rules then to how we play normally.

the beeeeeeeeeeep test

I just did the beep test and boy do my legs feel like rubber I thought this would be easy like last year. I think last year we had a different beep test because last year I made it to level 97 but I guess it is because we are year 8  I really hope that we get to do this again. I can not wait to see if my sore changes over time. The teams all chose sports that end with the word ball. But if you want to know my score in the beep test was 9.8 there was dodge ball bench ball  something called tchoukball  soft ball volleyball and some other ones that I do not know the name of.




My goal is my next score to be at least 15.0
My other goal is to win.
The best boy was Gerald with 10.1 and the best girl is someone I do not know.

Give an example of a way that you worked successfully with others? By not bumping into people
Give an example how did your actions and feelings affect others? By getting people to cheer for me
Give an example how did you help someone who was struggling? By saying something engorging to motivate them   


Why did we do the fitness testing? to get fit and to see what out score would be a few weeks later
What were your results  9.8  i tied second along with Bryce
What is an area that you feel you need to improve on  keeping a nice rythim
How did you help someone who was struggling  cheer them on
