Athletic

So today for P.E we were still preparing for athletics which is next week, Thursday. The events we did were shot put, sprints, and javelin. In our group was Aiden, Alesha, Alex, Kayla, Ian, and Rojan. We decided that our group goal was to have fun and support one another without being rude. The skills involved for shotput was how you were going to throw the shotput and how your posture is. After we moved to sprints/javelin the skills for spirits that were needed were how to start off (starting position) and the skills for javelin were how you throw it and the way your wrist goes after you have thrown it. Where to next is just doing the activities we need to work on for next week we all think this is going well so far and to take measurements so we can record results.

Grammar Once A Week

Visitor from another planet
Gort a visitor from the planet Haret uses different words when naming things. No one could understand him until  he pointed to different objects.
Naming things

Reet = Tree     Kobo = Book   Tribba = Rabbit   Pleap = Apple   Rast = Star   Poson = Spoon
Blate = Table   Tofo = Foot
The names we call different things are called nouns.

Spaced-out sentences
Gorf was a super-intellegent being and quickly learnt to speak our language. BUT when he wrote down some facts about his planet, we found them difficult to read. (He didn't use any spaces!)
Rewrite the sentences Gorf said, leaving spaces between the words.

1. TheskyonplanetHaretispink. = The sky on planet Haret is pink.
2, TheHaretiansliveunderground. = The Haretians live underground.
3. Childrenonlygotoschoolonceaweek. = Children only go to school once a week.
4. ThecarsonHarethavesquarewheels. = The cars on Haret have square wheels.

A sentence is a group of words telling something that makes sense. Write a sentence telling something about the planet you live on. Remember a sentence starts with a capital letters and ends with a full stop.
ThechildrenheregotoschooleveryMondaytoFriday. = The children here go to school every Monday to Friday.

Rhyme time
If you look closely. you will see that the words Gorf spoke can be rearranged to make the words we use.     e.g    blate - table   gort - frog   Haret - Earth
These are called anagrams - swapping the letters of a word around to make a new word.

Can you work out some more of Gorf's words? You will find that each set of words rhyme.

Keow = woke   Komes = smoke   Olack = clock   Kaos = soak   Kepo = poke   Gans = sang
Gran = rang   Gnab = bang   Nagg = gang   Gnaf = fang   Yehon = honey   Fyunn = funny
Yunns = sunny   yomen = money   nurny = runny

Moving on: Introducing 
Elephant: Hi. I'm here to help you remember the things you need to know about grammar. Whenever you see me, please READ, THINK and REMEMBER.

Give me a name...
Write down six names that you might call the elephant and underline the one you like the best. Then you can colour in the elephant ( Impossible ).
1.) Kepo
2.) Fyunn
3.) Keow
4.) Yomen
5.) Nurny

SDL Goal

Spiritual Song

Today we watched a spiritual video from old days, what I learnt about it is they are singing about how slaves feel when they are getting forced to do things.

Shotput and Long jump

Today we practised shotput and long jump, in shotput we use heavy balls and try to throw them in the field. This is how we throw the ball, you have to put the ball under your neck on your shoulder and release it or throw it above the height of your shoulder with one hand.

For long jump, we go where the jump line is, we turned around and did 21 step, after

A Recent News Item That Interests Me

Corona virus is one of the recent news that I got interested in, I wouldn't call it it's the recent news I got interested in because I only heard it from my parents and relatives but later on I watched it.I don't really know why I got interested in corona virus, It might be because it's the newest virus recently discovered.

I'll be only writing about what I heard or what I know corona virus is. So corona virus is obviously a virus and can kill people who are affected on it, the virus somehow started in Wuhan market in China where they sale wild animals such as rats, snakes, bats etc. I believe corona virus came from bats, it started in Wuhan because people in there likes to eat bats. The virus killed a lot of people. My parents said corona virus have happened a long time ago and being kept secret before it showed up in the news. Corona virus can spread fast and it's dangerous, that's why many people wearing mast nowadays.....
