I just can’t believe that I keep on playing and passing the lessons on Typing Tutor. I HAVE COMPLETED LESSON 5!!! I am so proud of myself. I am now up to lesson six.

Having Fun Playing Badminton with Laurien

After hearing that my class and I were going to practise and learn how to play the sport “Badminton” with a professional, I felt really EXCITED!!!! Did you know that I have been wanting to playing Badminton since a very long time? I was very pleased to hear great news that day. Nearly everyone in my class felt really HAPPY! Few minutes later, “Ring ring ring!!!” The loud ringing bell finally rang after morning tea. It was time for us to go to Badminton in the hall.


As we got to the hall, we saw an expert waiting there for us. Her name was Laurien and she was ready to start off our sports day. First, we had to get ourselves a racket and a shuttle each and form a big circle.( If you are wondering what a shuttle is, it is what you hit the racket with when you are playing Badminton) Do you know how to hold a “Racket?” This amazing female told us that we had to stick out our thumb like we are showing a good sign to another, then we have to turn it upside down and hold it behind the racket.

Next, we had to find our own partner and we have to challenge them with our own moves. So I went and got my best friend, Tui and we had a very tough challenge. We were both laughing at each other when we didn’t hit the shuttle. My friend and I were having a great time of laughter.

While our class were having our fun challenge, “SHUTTLE!” The amazing expert Laurien shouted loudly. That was for us to stop. Our amazing experienced expert taught us some really interesting moves and those moves were the real moves. My class and I felt amazed. She also hit the shuttle with her racket “UNDER HER LEGS!!!” How cool is that?

About 5 minutes later, Badminton was finished and I heard that we are going to have another Badminton teacher for the next week. I heard that her name was Donna. I could not wait to meet her. Also, I bet you that we are going to have a lot of fun with her.

What is the Story Behind Argentina's flag

What is the story behind the Argentina flag? I learnt that the Sun is called the Sun Of May. Do you know why? It is because the bright sun shines in May only. The White colour on the Argentina mean “Peace and Honesty.” Also, the Blue colours represent many elements including Vigilance, truth and loyalty, perseverance and Justice.

COMPLETING LESSON 4!!!

AGAIN? I have completed lesson 4 in Free Typing Tutor. I am really proud of myself for increasing a lot in this FUN game. YOU SHOULD TRY IT!!

FAMILY BURNING ACCIDENT!!

As soon as I heard that a big family of 11 had a fire accident in Australia, I felt really sad and sorry for them. They lived in a two-story house. I cannot stop thinking about it because their whole was in the accident except for the father of the family and I think one other kid.

It started with the house burning in the kitchen from down-stairs, while the family were all up-stairs trying to escape. They had no where to go. But, the dad was thinking and had cracked a window, threw out a mattress, and leaded the way by jumping outside and landing on the mattress. Now I bet you that the family was so afraid of having to jump out, but that was the only way. None of the family wanted to jump out so they stayed inside and then, “BOOM!” They all had died by not jumping out.

Now the father of the family feels that he had been aggressive about his family when he tried to save their LIVES! The main thing about this story is that we have to think and to choose the right thing. DO IT!!!

Our Writing Test

It all started with my class and I doing our plan for our writing test. I felt nervous while doing it. Well I felt happy for my plan but, I was thinking that I will not know what to write about.

Few minutes later, our class started our writing test. Also, I was trying my best at having a good and outstanding story. The writing test was difficult and challenging.

For the last 2 minutes, I had to edit my writing because I had finally finished. I checked all my mistakes and fixed. I felt proud of myself.

Congratulations to ME!!

This week, again I completed my S and L level on Free Typing Tutor. You should play it. Not only it is a game, but it it helps you to be a faster typer.

Faith vs Flesh

Once upon a time, there was a little lady bird sitting on a leaf. Her name was Faith. Although Faith is now 16 years old, she was only 4 years old when she lost her parents. Sadly, Faith grew up with out friends.

Tired of being lonely, she crawled up a grape tree. There was a grape hanging on a little branch, and oddly enough, he had a name- Aaron. He had 70 brothers and sisters. "WOW!!" Like Faith, he also didn't have parents.

After greeting each other with a surprising"HELLO," they turned out to be best friends. While they were playing together, Aaron decided to not share his toys with Faith. He made a BIG lie. Aaron promised Faith that he will always share his toys with her. Aaron the Grape was being foolish. So they argued, and argued.

After that, the Vine Dresser came out to get some riped grapes for he and his family. He shook the tree so some big grapes can fall down. While he shook the tree, Aaron, the grape fell down. Aaron was so happy that he did not get squashed. A few minutes later “SQUASH!” The man accidentally stood on Aaron and squeezed his soft body. That can happen when ever you're being foolish.

Certificate Completed

This is a certificate that I got from the Typing Tutor. Typing Tutor is really FUN!! Because when ever we type as kids to adults, we do not have to look down. You should check it out.

What Are We Learning?

For this term, we are learning about the “Rugby World Cup.” I am so proud of myself because I have learned loads about it. This year, there are going to be 20 teams playing in the Rugby World Cup. Also the Samoan Rugby team is entering it. But then the Kiwi Rugby team is playing too and am also a Kiwi!! In our class, we are studying and learning about four different flags. They are Argentina, Australia, USA, and SAMOA!!! My favourite class option is making a button that will go onto another card. I am proud of “myself” because I am getting more Assignments finished.

What I am going to try and improve is my writing and especially math!! I am also going to try to finish most of my assignments. Last of all, my “Our Team” stack.

Looking Forward to the New Term

After the holidays, it was really good to come back to school. What are my goals? Well, my goal is to finish all assignments instead of talking. My other goal is to listen to my teacher so that will know what to do. Do you know what my last goal is? It is to increase lots and to improve in my learning.

This term, I am looking forward to learning lots about the Rugby World Cup and especially learning about SAMOA because it is my own culture. Did you know that I don’t really know that much about rugby? But I am hoping I will learn lots about it. This term I am looking forward to memorising all of the 20 team that are going to the CUP!!!

Did you know that I always wanted to do good things in school to make people and especially parents proud of me. If I want that to happen, then I should think about it all the time.This term I am going to try and improve in everything.
