My Letter

Dear mum and dad ,
How are you? Hope you are well.This term at school at school I have learnt many things like how to put up a tent, different kinds of nouns ,and what statistics are and metaphor.This term at school I have already joined some sports witch is softball,netball,and i have also joined rugby this year .I have already done some tests witch was really hard!

At school this year we were lucky enough to have net books witch is exciting and I have got a blog so far on the Internet and I have only posted two.Thank you for paying for my my camp witch was really fun! I really enjoyed my time at school learning different things each day.The other thing that i enjoyed at school is Technology and what we do at tech is that there are different groups witch do different stuff and at tech I am in the food group.So that's what happened at school so far.

How to put up a tent

Materials: 1 hammer Tent (3x people ) ‘Fly’(1x) Pegs(11x) poles (3x) Ropes (8x) Method: 1 .Find a clear,level ,grassed area away from over hanging branches trees. 2. Open the bag and place the base flatly on the ground. 3.When lying there flatly get out the pegs to hold down the corners of the tent so that the tent does not fly away. 4.The next thing you will do is to get the poles out and stick them together.When you have stuck them together there should be all together two black long ones and one short one. 5.After that you get the one long pole and stick one half on one the ground and stick the other side opposite side from where the other pole is. 6.When it is opposite each other then you will find some clips on the tent and you have connect those clips onto the poles so that they stick together.That is also what you to do with the other pole on the other side and then on top of the tent is two strings and then when you have finished tie the two poles together . 7.Next thing to do is to get the fly (witch is the cover)and put it on top of the tent to make sure that the rain does not fall on you when you are sleeping. 8.When the fly is on then you get the strings that is on the fly and pull it down so that it can stay down.When you have done that make sure that you you get it in the middle or else you will end up with e cricket tent! so make sure that it is in the middle. 9. After you have pegged the strings down in front of the tent where you go in is a hole witch is under the front cover and that is where you put the last pole through . 10.Make sure that you have pegged the front strings and they are in a angle so that it tight ! 11.When you are finished then you are all done and your tent is all ready for camp!!!!!!

My Thoughts About Camp

Guess what !!!!!,Next week on Monday our Team 5 camp is starting and I am really looking forward to it. Our camp this year is called ‘Camp Take Charge.’ I am really looking forward to it because we did really fun activities last year. I am also excited because I am going to be there with my friends and that will be much more exciting!

Yesterday we had our first meeting and that meeting was cool because that’s when we were told what groups we were in .I wish that my friends were in my group with me.

Yesterday when we got to know what groups we are in, the next thing we did was this one activity and it was quite hard. It was hard because there were like thirty of us in a group and the game was that you have to get your whole team across the hall without touching the ground ,even if one person falls off the whole team has to start again.Our team did good but we left one person behind and as we were trying to go back we were called back to sit down.

Our team leaders Helen and Charm really motivated us and so we did good except for the one person we left behind! The best group of all was the ‘PARTICIPATORZ!’ yes that’s my group.There were five other groups.I reckon the teachers picked that game so we know how to participate together as a team.
