GooseBumps

For the past whole week my class have been working on a book and the author of the book, which is called GooseBumps. My group done it about the author who was called R.L Stine. He is pretty old and he also wear's glasses.

I done the character study and my friend called Matali did the books he had wrote and Gloria done it on when did he First invent GooseBumps. I think my slide was the best out of all of them, I also done the title with slappy the dummy for the book. When we had finished the writing on our Chromebooks we had to write something off one of our slide and when we had finished that we had to put it on a black piece of cardboard that 2 girls painted. This boy called Samuel was good at drawing so that made it easy for his group to get pictures, He drawed Slappy The Dummy, Frankenstein and This Zombie looking kind of thing.

At the end it looked very cool with everyone's work that got glued on.

Getting Two New Notes

On Saturday Me, my little sister, My dad and my little brother went to Otara to get some meat from the meat shop and buy some other stuff.

When we were out in Otara we had to go get the meat but they didn’t have any good meat so we went to this which was kind of like pak n save and countdown to get some more meat with tin foil and other stuff. When we finished getting the meat we were driving past an Ice-Cream shop and my dad asked my sister if she wanted an Ice-Cream and she said yes, so I had to buy it with my $30. When I walked in my sister was happy and she asked for some lollies that were there too so I bought her that as well. As soon as I got my sisters Ice-Cream which was the berry bliss she ran straight back to the car and I was waiting for mine, I got the goody goody gum drop and orange chocolate chip, I bought my dad one to and the flavor I got him was Lemon and lime because that would have been sad eating a cold ice cream in a warm day without your dad having one when he is the one getting out of the car and in.

Then we went to the shops and I bought me some hot chips, lollies and a drink. When I got my change I got the new Five dollars and Ten dollars. Then when we went home my uncle was there, When we walked in my sister showed my uncle her wallet and he gave her ten dollars and I tried to steal it out of her wallet when ever she leaves it her bag or when she is doing something. Once I told her that I will give her my two dollars because it was more the her money and she gave it, than a minute later she told my mum that I have her ten dollars and she told me to give it back to her.

Then I started playing the PS4 (GTA 5) and I was annoying people online with the microphone and they got angry and left my lobby, I Had a fun day on Saturday.

Clay Modeling

On Tuesday my class started using Jovi Clay and made some cool stuff like phones with cases and can come off the phone, Laptops with a mouse, keyboard and Hard drive, Pear Phone and the thing I made was an iPhone 6. My case was a sponge bob square pants and my phone had lots of app too. I made me a camera and it looked cool when I finished it. I was happy to finished it on Thursday which was today, and I was angry because I had to keep starting over again because my friends who are annoying keep breaking it and squishing it, And I was angry with that.

Here is an image of my clay model that I finished today:

Touch Rugby Lessons

Today (Was our last day of touch) and the last three weeks, our school from Rooms 6 to 12 have been doing touch lessons with our new coach called Trevor. We also had a game of touch.

It was cool getting taught how to play the real proper ways of playing touch, and some skills to do while in an actual touch game against other people. We have learnt lots of skills for those three weeks and they all might help us in the future.

The only proper way that I learnt was Plant and that is when you put the ball under your legs and not roll it, just leave it in one spot and step over it then step back. Then we had a race in 3 teams, Our coach Trevor gave the 3 groups a ball each and we had to pass it to the person next to you and the person had to run to the front of the line and pass to the next person. Then we done the same one but we had to zigzag between every person in line and pass it to the next one. Then we played a passing game which is sort of like Pig, Donkey or whatever you want to call it and if you drop the ball you have to go in the middle.

I liked being taught all of those things because of coach taught us the best games to do when you are training for touch and also our coach was funny. Thanks to Trevor we all know how to play proper touch.

UB40

The reason I chose UB40 is because my dad got me into their music by listening to it while he drinks his beer or when he goes out in the van. I also choose the UB40 because they have nice and calm music to listen to while doing something and also can put you to sleep at night.

The UB40 had made lots of songs and some sound like reggae songs to me a bit just like how Bob Marley sings his song. I also like the beats of their music and how it’s a group that makes that beat and someone sings the song. There are 6 people in the band and most of them speak the same language and come from the same country, the both country they come from are  Birmingham and the United Kingdom. The band started advertising themselves before they even owned any instruments. Posters of UB40 were put up all over Birmingham by two of the founding members, Ali Campbell and Brian Travers.

The 6 people’s name Ali Campbell, Duncan Campbell, Robin Campbell, Astro, Horman Hassan, Brian Travers, Maxi Priest, Earl Falconer, James Brown and Michael Virtue. The best song they have ever recorded in history is called Red Red Wine and this is the link to the song (Red Red Wine).

I hope you liked reading about my favorite band and how I got in to them.
