A girl in another world

This is a story I made up for our free choice blog I hope you like it!


One bright sunny day Scarlett, a normal 10 year old was playing with her little sister poppy and her three older brothers James, Ashton and Matt. They were at there weird uncle fords house to stay. He was a scientist and did lots of wacky things.She didn't want to get involved with any of his experiments because she had no idea what she might go through. She went to try find the bathroom but she didn't remember were it was she found a door and decided to take her chances and go through but Scarlett new it wasn't right and left.

All day Scarlett was curios about the room. That night when she went to bed she couldn't resist.She jumped out of bed and wondered down to the room. in her nightie she opened the door and looked inside. She saw that there was a combination. Suddenly she tripped over hitting five tiles. Oh no she said she expected an alarm or something but instead she found out she had done the password.

She walked into a strange lab with lots of cool things in it. She steeped into a hole by accident and found herself swirling down into a another dimension! She closed her eyes swirling down and then when she opened them back up there she was in a funny looking dimension.  She walked through a acrid and into a dessert '' HELP '' she cried ''I don't know were I am'' suddenly a voice came for a distance. '' come, come with me I will help you.''

Scarlett walked Ford to the voice and there in front of her was an old lady. '' I am Ersalamapa'' she said '' you can call me Ersal.'' Over some time Ersal and Scarlett became good friends and she was invited to Ersals house for some super. Ersal told you to sit down'' I have something special prepared tonight I hope you like it, I now I will. Ersal liked her lips and walked away. Scarlett didn't think anything of it through and just stayed sitting down.

  
Scarlett looked over into the kitchen and saw an an arm the fruit bowl, As well as a foot and head! ''Ahhh'' Scarlett screamed. She new exactly what was going on Ersals a cannibal! She quickly ran out back to the acrid and was sucked back up.Scarlett opened her eyes and found herself back in her bed again It was morning now. her mum came in ''did you sleep well honey'' she said ''just fine.''  
   

TTS

TTS stands for Traditional teaching styles.

We did this on Tuesday. There was nothing we had in our usual class.

Only tables and chairs in rows an old projector and a hop that you had to sit in if you were being bad.     

We did a CSI on it 

A CSI is a colour symbol image. You put the colour you were felling the symbol you thought of and the image you think of. We did one on on TTS and one on learning in GRI11 2.0

Adventures in The mansion!

In our class GRI11 2.0 we made something called a Pick A Path.
Were we write a story and there's two options and you have to pick one. I had lots of fun making them and I really hope that you like my Pick A Path!

Sports Rotations!

At my school C.S.N.S We have something called a sports rotation. Every Tuesday we go to the place are sport is being held. We always have two activities to do. My favourite activate is the hokey. The hokey is run on the school turf and couched by our year five and six school sports couches.

I like the hokey because they make it fun and teach us skills we need for a game of hokey. We usually get a hokey stick and we play a game of seaweed except the tagger has to hit the other persons ball out. After that we usually do some skills and then we play a mini game of hokey with our friends.

I really love the the hokey at sports rotations but I also like the other sports as well. The sports I,v had throughout the years are Tennis, football, soccer, badminton, golf, basketball, circuits and cricket. All of these are really run and I love doing all of them. I cant till next Tuesday so I can do more sports rotations.  

The wellington trip!

2/5/16

In the second week of the school holidays after term One, I went to Wellington! I went with my mum and my sister. The first part was the boring car ride. Sitting in a car for three hours waiting to finally to get there. We were going to meet our cousins and auntie down there. We decided to meet them at
Toy world so we can go on the segway.

It was really fun I had a go and I went around whole store! my cousins weren't really interested in the segway the were more excited about all the Lego. When my sister had a go she wasn't as good as me. She went ford and crashed into the Lego friends shelf then she wanted to get off but the segway started spinning round and she didn't know how to get off. She finally got off and then we went to the park.

At the park there was a big white slide everyone wanted to go on. My cousins,sister and I all rushed up the slide.My auntie had meet a friend so she was talking and my mum had a work meeting with someone so she wasn't here for Toy world or the park. We had all got to the top of the slide and were waiting to go down. I went down second. It was so fun after that I went on the swings then we left we case were all hungry!

We all went went to Starbucks and had a great time and then we went home and we played some games. We played The game of life, a game with some toys and tag on the tramp. I really loved my day in Wellington and I cant wait till next time!

This is the park we went to!

Swimming Sports!

It was time. We all gathered our stuff and piled onto the buses. It was Tuesday the 12th of April, 2016, the day of Senior Syndicate Swimming Sports. We all got off the bus, one by one and walked into the Lido. Everyone sat down. Some were finding places to put there stuff, some were getting into there togs and some were just sitting and talking. I could sense the nerves in everyone waiting for the first race to start. 

Finally the first race started - Boys Freestyle. There were some people who stood beside the pool and they handed out blokes to the people who came 1st, 2nd and 3rd. We had to put it in the box that had our house colour on it.

I did two races - Girls Freestyle and Girls Backstroke. On my first one I was so nervous. I jumped into the pool and got ready for the loud bang. "On your marks, get set, go!" "BANG". I kicked of the wall and raced down the pool. To my excitement I came third! For my second race I was a bit more used to it and I came second!

I sat waiting. It seemed like a really long time. They announced that there were now championships raes. I sat and watched the championships and then after that we had some relays. My team (Kea) came third and we also came third for how many points we got. When we got back to school I was so tired! I loved swimming sports and I think nearly everyone else did to! 

       

GRI11 2.0 fast track!

GRI11 2.0 Fast Track!

In GRI11 2.0 we have something called a Fast track. Fast track is a digital way to keep track of our learning. It's called fast track because its fast to track. It has all our learning activities on it for the week and where to find them. When we've done the task we put a shortened URL link of our learning in to show we've done it next to our name, under the right task. 

In fast track the black bit tells us the task, the grey is where it's found (like GC is Google Classroom) and the white is where you put your links to show you have done the task. 

Fast track is found on Google classroom on the GRi11 Home Page, which is the new way we do our learning. We have a Google Classroom for each learning area. The tasks are put in the classroom related to their topic. 

Fast track is a great way to access your learning and to know what you have and haven't done.

 I would recommend other schools to use fast track for their learning. That's the GRI11 2.0 Fast track.

The hub is good for me because I like big spaces to work in. In the hub your aloud to talk as much as you want, I like to talk with my friends while I learn so the hub is a good space for me.

In the hub there is lots cool stuff and spaces to learn in the Hub we have lots of tables and chairs we even have some ottomans (there like little couches.) We have a mini fridge, foos ball, ping pong and the normal classroom stuff.
