Lakes High school

yesterday we had a really fun day at lakes high school in rotorua.
Thank you to all the people who organized  it. we had a lot of fun.
in cooking we made a  mold for chocolate and made some chocolates and we made little boxes to put the chocolates in.
the funest thing i thought was pe because we had a game of pirates. its when you run around the hall but we had to stay on the line and there were obstacles that we had to jump over and crawl under and swing off the bars with the rops and stuff. it was pretty cool because i won one of the rounds. science was pretty cool because we put these different types of things on the end of the wire and it made different types of coloures inside of the fire.

overall i had a really cool day

storm breaker

Storm breaker book vs movie

This term our class read the book storm breaker and then we watched the movie after the we finished the book. The movie was a lot more existing then the book.

The book was a lot different  to the movie like the bit were there on the motorbikes in the books its a lot more into the movie when there on the motorbikes.

I think that the movie was a lot better because it was a lot more existing then the book and a lot different in some parts of the book. In the book it’s a little bit  slow to get into the hole action bit of the book.

The book is cool but it gets better when you get further and further into it and the ending is different I don’t really want to give to much away

The caricturs are really cool in the movie. There is alex rider the main person then there’s herid sail otherwise known as sail he owns sail enterprises. There’s  alex uncle Elian rider and the waiter called jack (shes a girl).

 Over all I think that they were both really good but the movie I thought was better because it has more of a story line and more action in it.

Minecraft report.

Minecraft

Minecraft is a game were you place blocks to make things like houses and villages but there’s a twist. There a zombies there are creepers there are skeletons and more.

Firstly I think minecraft should be allowed in schools as a learning experience because you can use it for scaling in maths . but sometimes I think it should not be allowed in schools because kids can get add ceded and very obsessed with the game

You are abele to do just about anything like make a house and make things as big as you want it to be you can make alsorts of stuff you can also my for gold diamonds and alsorts of other stuff by just digging down. 

It is also good because you can play with other people on servers and multiplayer you can build with other people and make things with different people. The people can give you ideas on what to build and instructshons on how to build something.

There are some bad points about servers because there are people could griefers they go around destroying peoples houses witht the lieks off tnt aand flint and steal…

In the distance I see the giant trees on the other side of the lake waving as I’m writing this poem.

Above me I see the gigantic white clouds moving slowly well I’m staring at them.

I can hear the really loud dragon fly’s buzzing.

In the distance I can hear the trucks and cars driving as fast as there aloud to along the road.

I can feel the nice cool wind blowing against my face.

I can smell the nice hot sausages cooking on the BBQ
