.A soft small ball 

.(10-20) players

2. The player with the ball gets to throw first but silently

My Term 3 Reflection

In term 3 room 8 and I have being doing some fun writing, reading and maths. My favorite was doing the quick writes. Here is an example:

 the exhausted Bengal tiger passed out in it's cage.

 And my favorite part of maths is ... measurement in temperature. Did you know at the moment the temperature  is 12 degree Celsius.
My favorite part of reading is the performing plays. My group did one yesterday HOW WANTS TO BE A SUPER FLOWER and it was a big success.

In swimming i really in joyed going on the hydro - slide on our last day I didn't want to go on my own I went twice with someone and once on my own.
I hope we have good term next term good luck everyone for next term and have a fun and safe holiday

fireman saves a kitten

             
One day lots of firemen came to a house fire to extinguish it . But before they left the house they did one final check for any people still surviving. They didn't find anyone, but they did find an unconscious kitten lying desperately on floor. The fireman rushed to the fire engine to get water and a oxygen pump. They put the oxygen pump on the kittens mouth and splashed water on it. It sprung back to life and excitedly let out a soft meow.

student lead conference

Last night I had my student lead conference .

At first I felt scared and nervous.

My mum said her favorite part of learning was my kite poster for my calender art .

My dads favorite part was my pelican writing and my masquerade mask.

My sisters favorite part of learning was all of my maths. Mileka loved the fractions. Her favorite shape now is a cube. 

At the end of my conference I felt proud and extremely happy about myself.

  

Cross country

Room 8 and I are training for cross country.
 I can only do 2 or 3 laps a day.
 I go huff and puff just after 1 lap.
How many can you do? Jayden can do at least 5 or 6 laps of our field.
The whole school will be doing cross country at 29 of August.

Circuit poem

             Circuits are when I exercise my body.

             I see running skipping jumping and kicking .

             I hear music and people running.

             I smell sweat coming from my body.

             I touch the sand as I do the bench jumps.

Get a BIG long strip of paper and rap it around and around then stick it on the mask and put paper on to stick it on.Now for the mouth get some paper and make a happy face then put it on the mask and strip paper across the mouth.If you have done that it will look like this.Now you are ready to paint you mask you can paint it any kind of pain you want to.Here is some photos of room8's masks
