fitness circuits and skipping and cross country training

we exercise because we want to get fit and strong and also have a lot of fun
My favourite exercise is cross country training because I am really fast. My record of laps around the field is  12 .
The trickiest exercise is skipping because I can not jump over the rope

Monster Gary

Hi my name is Gary and I adore science maths and reading. I want to be an inventor so I can create a moon gravity car. Some people think I`m a big fat nerd. They say my teeth look like yellow rocks that have been fragmented ever since I was born. I know all about rocks because my class visited the waitomo  caves recently. if I can`t make a moon gravity car I want to be a rock and gem geologist who will travel around the world discovering precious new stones

River Walk

 Room 8 went on a river walk around the mighty Waikato river.

The first bridge we looked at was the Victoria bridge. It has an arch and is made of steel it carries vehicles and pedestrians

we stopped and sketched it.

the second bridge we looked at was the Claudland bridge. It has no arch and it is made of concrete.

this is the Claudland bridge close. It has strong  triangular arms called trusses.

                                                              

this is the last bridge we looked at. It is the  Fairfield bridge. It has tied arches. It is also made of concrete

 We  had finally finished the walk but we were so tired

Picture Prompt

 This is my first time going down a snow slide. It is  so much fun!  Why is everyone running away from me?  Don't they want to ride on my back? The slide is over.  I want to go again and again and AGAIN!

My Farorite Thing About Term 1

My favourite thing in term 1 was probability because I like doing maths. I am in the top math group in the class. Probability means what is the chance of something happening. There are some words to used such as: impossible unlikely possible likely certain.

Camp 2015

Last Thursday the middle syndicate had over night camp. After school the middle syndicate had Burgers for dinner. After dinner we had a delicious Milo. Then we brushed our teeth.  Then as it got dark we started playing spotlight  with my friends. At 8.30 it was time for bed. The person in my tent was Zarian  he had 5 lights. In the morning the people that were awake early watched big hero 6 then we had breakfast. I had weetbix.
