Terrific Tennis

I love tennis. But sometimes it can make me really tired. Just because I get tired doesn't mean I don't love tennis, but today there was something that made me want to stop half way through a game. Hot rays of sun were beating down on my face and all I wanted was to stop. But the thing is I was half way through a game, so I couldnt. I played one of my friends, Eden. She is super funny and super good at tennis. Sometimes I laughed because she just watched the ball go right past her and she didn't even try to hit it back to me, but sometimes she was really concentrated. Sometimes I liked it but sometimes it made everything a whole lot harder. As the sun was killing me and Eden was smashing me I wanted to stop the whole thing. But I couldn't. At one point it was something like 5-3. Then it was 5-4. Then Eden won. So in the end I lost 6-4. After that I didn't want to play another game of tennis. Before I played Eden, me and my Dad did some hits and he really made me run. I'm not that good at backhands so Dad made me do a lot. In the end I am just glad that one day of tennis is over, and there is only a million more to come. Do you play tennis?

Beautiful Board Game💖

Kia Ora Bloggers! Today we went back to to school because it is the end of lock down! It has been a hard few days, but online school was kinda fun and seeing my friends is awesome! Anyway, during the time of online learning, I made a board game about growth and fixed mindset. The rules are at the top of the game. Have fun!

Have you ever made a board game?

Volcano

Kia Ora Bloggers! Yesterday me and my siblings made an explotion with water, vinegar, dish washing liquid and baking soda. First we put the water, vinegar, and dishwashing liquid in a bottle. Then we put baking soda and water in a bottle. Then we went over to the park in the far corner and put the baking soda slurry (baking soda and water) into the other mixture and stood back. We were quite disappointed at first, but then I decided to shake it, and then we were happy. It exploded everywhere up nice and high. It was awesome. Sorry, but I couldnt get the video, but it looked really cool. It looked a little like this, but in a milk bottle.

Have you ever made an explotion?

Would You Rather......?

Kia Ora Bloggers! My name is Quinn and today I am going to share with you my writing! It is about why out of a school and a computer, you should definitely be a computer! Here is why;

Would you rather be a school or a computer? Hi, my name is Quinn and I am going to tell you why you should definitely be a computer.

Would you rather be a school or a computer? Hi, my name is Quinn and I am going to tell you why you should definitely be a computer. First of all, being a school would mean seeing people argue or find out sad things, which yes, you can do that on a computer, but people share that information at school every day, so it is really sad to be a part of that, since you can see all over the grounds. Now think about being a school and having people stand and jump all over you, all day. Ouch. Plus, being a computer, you can make something wrong with it, and then shut yourself down. Then you can relax and have a good rest. And when the user of the computer is watching things like YouTube or Netflix, you can watch it too. But when you are at school, all you can watch is the education videos, or kids working and playing, which can get very boring. Also, being a computer means that you can have fun. Know what is happening in people's life from what the user looks at. But as a school you can only find that out from people talking about it. You can't find out new information except when people share it with each other at school. Being a computer, means you can be taken away, see the world. And use google maps to find new things out. Reset and start fresh. Kick the user off pages as a joke. And, schools at some point have to get smashed down. That means you die and all your great and fun memories. Computers can download pictures and keep them safe. Be put on other devices and kept safe forever. The only school memories are from pictures and people. In conclusion being a school, means being knocked down and losing memories. But when you are a computer, you can download them and keep them safe forever! That is why you should definitely be a computer.

So, what do you choose?

Lock Down!

Kia Ora Bloggers! It is Monday the 23rd of August and we are in horrible lock down! Ok, so lock down might help stop the spread of covid, but it really sucks. It is sooo boring. No friends to play with, no seeing other family members. No going to fun places. And worst of all... NO TAKEAWAYS! It is super horrible, sad and boring even though it stops a virus spreading. The good thing is, there are ways to contact friends and family members. THE PHONE! I can ring and text all... no most of my friends through the phone! I guess you could say that's one thing to be grateful for today. My phone! Any way, most of lock down I have been playing roblox on my chromebook. But because I have to wait until after 3:30 because I can't sign in to my phone account until half and hour after school ends, I was doing other things on my chromebook that were not roblox like... playing other games, doing work like recording motes on my slides and writing stories. Then at 3:30 I would sign into my home account. Want to see what I was working on? Well... Here is the slide I was putting motes on during the day.

Do you like making Google Slides?

1...2...3 UMBRELLA!

Kia Ora bloggers! This week we were writing about umbrella.

Umbrella

Early one drizzling morning, the door to Miss Elm’s Home For Children slowly opened wider and wider. The girl with the neon yellow umbrella, slowly entered the orphanage, looking at her surroundings curiously before finding a home for her umbrella. Not wanting to be seen, Boris speedily pulled his head around the door frame so that he was hidden from sight. Standing away from the others the girl stood there as the other kids joyfully searched through the box of old loved treasures. The girl smiled as she watched the little boy race round the room like a rocket. The girl's smile quickly vanished as she looked at the umbrella stand to see only puddles left. Her precious yellow umbrella had been stolen.
