Making My Toy

This Term, the toy that I picked to make was the "Rubber Band Ball". I picked this toy because the person that I am giving my toy to loves bouncy things! It took me a week to complete this toy and now that it is finished , I think that it was worth the time making.
The materials I used to make this toy were : Rubber bands

            , A little piece of paper

 and that's about it. Here are the steps of how I made it,
Step1 : First you get a small piece of paper and you scrunch it up real small, making sure it is nice and round.
Step 2: Keep on adding rubber bands to the paper until it gets big.
Step 3 : When the ball is nice and big, you can test it.
If it works out well then you did a great job, and if it doesn't bounce at all , then hard luck, try again.
It is that simple to make an exciting toy with just rubber bands and paper.
At the end, you will end up with something similar to this.

My Favourite Toy

Here is my animation that I made showing my favourite toy. Hope yo enjoy!!

My favourite toy is the volley ball. It is sphere, with yellow and blue stripes. it is roughly about 20 cm long and 21.5 cm long.  It makes a good game and it is really cool to play with. It goes all over the place when I play with it, and goes up and over the net. It is a challenging toy because you have to make sure you hit it right, no too hard and not too soft. I like this toy better than most toys because you can use it for different games for example, netball , basketball, VOLLEY, etc.....
I think that this toy has powers as well, it can make us laugh but at the same time cry.  It makes us laugh by being so amazing and hitting other people, but at the same time makes the person that got hit cry. So I think it can be evil and kind at the same time.

The Relaxation Sensation!

Ahhhhhhhhhh was what I felt as soon as my head, back and feet hit the sand. It was a good feeling to lie down and relax after an exhausting walk to the beach with the girls!

It was the perfect time to go to the beach as the sun was out and the tide was in.  We were all exhausted from walking there , as it was really really hot!  But we managed to get there.
Relaxing in the sun was an amazing feeling! We laid there for a while but then it soon got a bit hot, I then asked the girls, “ You guys up for a swim ?” they answered “YEAH” so we then went and got change and headed over to the water. In line with text | Fixed position



We all walked together towards the ocean as the water was freezing cold and our bodies really hot. My friends were scared that someone might push them in! They were taking for ever so I just pushed them all down !! They screamed like they were going to die! They got up straight up and started splashing water to each other!
It was really fun!!

It was awesome hanging out with the girls. I soon then remembered that I put a volleyball in one of the girls bag , so I ran out and went and got it. I came back and told them to come play volley so they did. After about an hour of playing volley, we then stopped and went and got change into some dry clothes ready to go home.

As we were walking to the changing rooms, one of the girls stood on a glass. She fell down and started crying. We all then looked down at her feet  and there was a massive glass sticking out. We then panicked and called her mum. Minutes later her mother arrived to the beach, she then took my friend to the doctors.
Me and my friends were very worried! We soon then got a phone call from my friends mother that she was fine. It was a relief to hear that! It was getting dark so we then packed up all our stuff and headed home.

At the end of the day, someone ended up getting hurt but we did have lots of fun, We then walked down to my house and had some Ice Blocks to finish the day! :))

"Free Speech"

This week I have been reading and looking at why "Russia And Saudi May Block YouTube" On Monday, thousands of people took to the streets of Afghanistan where they set fire to houses, buildings and also cars. 

It all started with an Anti Islam film that was produced in the USA that had been put up on you Tube, which Afghanistan's and many people over the world found offensive! This film has sparked violence all over the world!

Stomach Churning

Facing my fears was one of the hardest things for me, but I took the risk and hopped into the cart where I met a girl named athena. I said hello to her and asked her if it was her  first time on the ride, and she said “Yes”. It felt good to know that someone else is trying to face their fears!

We waited patiently in the cart until the ride started, we buckled our seatbelts on, making sure that it was tight so we do not fall out. After about 5 minutes, The man taking the roller coaster ride announced on the speaker to make sure we hold on tight and to enjoy the ride!

Finally the ride started, it started off slowly and as we kept on going further it went faster and faster. I then thought to myself “ WOW this ain't so bad after all!  The faster we went the more I enjoyed it! but as I looked to my right where Athena was sitting, I could see that she was not having fun at all! We were then about to come up to where we were at the highest point of the roller coaste, ready to scream our buts off as we come down! I Couldn’t wait till we got there!

Finally we got to the highest point of the roller coaster! the part that made me scared to come on this ride in the first place! As we got there I took a deep breth and wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww down we went!!  I was really enjoying myself when all you could hear was screaming coming from the side of my ear! I turned around and to my amazement it was athena looking like she was going cry! I then just blocked my ears, sat back and enjoyed my ride! Not soon after I looked away from athena, I turned back to look at her and there she was spewing up on the side of the cart, I was really disgusted! Our ride went up and down, all around and so did Athena's spew. I then gave her a plastic bag to spew on instead of spewing on the side of the cart.

At the end of the day one person went home very angry because, well unfortunately the spew landed on her. Jay lee was the name of the angry girl who went home!
So the moral of this story is to don't go on the ride in the first place if you know you cant handle it.
PS: NEVER EAT BEFORE YOU GO ON A ROLLER COASTER!

Powerpuff girls lyrics

There once were three girls who lived in a hall.
One day they went to a powerpuff ball,
when they got there they were full of joy
And that was the end of the girls from the hall.

Olympic Sport Day!!

It  was a great way to end the week last week as our whole school came together and participated in different sports!!

We were all mixed up into different groups that had five year olds to 13 year olds students in it  to represent different countries!  There were more than 11 teams and one of those countries were Portugal! Portugal was the team that I lead and was officially the best (well to me)!

We started off from as soon as the first bell rang for school to start until the bell went for school to finish , so we obviously played through put the whole day! First thing we did when the bell rang for school to start was we headed over to the netball courts and all met up there. Standing in the front of everybody and looking at everyone sitting down was pretty freaky because I was used to the fact of sitting down and looking at my leader! We talked about some things then had a prayer to the Lord to help keep everyone safe and no one getting hurt!

After the prayer we then headed over to our first activity! Our first activity was pretty awesome. It was like netball mixed with water polo! it was awesome, I could see that everyone in my team was enjoying themselves. At the end, we ended up winning the game and got 5 points for good sportsmanship. There were 7 different activities left and already half of my team were already tired!

Moving on to the next event was even better! We got to learn how to play new games that we have never played before and even learnt some skills! As we were going to different groups time by time, the day got a lot hotter and we were having much fun!

At the end of the day I was really happy because I had lots of fun learning new games and challenging other teams! I think that my team did a great job because they always strived to succeed nd never gave up! I would love to have another sports like this because it is really fun and I hope the teachers will do this more often!
