Marbles In A Box

Marbles in a box 

In our maths lesson yesterday we were given a complicated puzzle to solve. We very hard on it trying to figure out the answer, drawing different 3D boxes and sums.  We did figure out the answer after a while but it was a lot of hard work. 

Get out a pencil and paper and see if you can figure out the problem. 

Comment what you think the answer is and I will tell you if it is right. 

Banqer

Banqer: 

Banqer is a website where we are learning about banking and what will happen when we grow up. Banqer teaches us about tax, income, interest and we can even buy houses. I like using banqer because it is fun and I have learnt a lot.

Swimming Camp

Opal Hot Springs, New Zealand

Swimming Camp
This Holidays I went on a swimming camp with my coach and my swimming friends.
We had swimming training in the mornings at the pool where we stayed. In the afternoons we went to the Matamata Swimming club to do our second  training.
I had lots of fun at swimming camp and I really wan't to go again.

Walking My Bike

Walking My Bike 

1963

As I walk through The Gardens of Eden, I feel the cold breeze cutting through my thin coat. My bike bumped repeatedly against my leg but I didn't bother to do anything about it, the soft turquoise colour soothed my thoughts about Ivy's death. I finally found shelter behind a huge oak tree and slept. 

I woke up to a beautiful morning full of prancing birds and happy cicadas. Then it hit me. I need to go back. I run through the Gardens pushing my bike as fast as I could. 

But when I got to the gates they were locked… 

I need to get out. I run the whole way around the gates but nothing is open. So I decided to wait, I think it is the longest wait I have ever had to have wait. 

When the guards finally came out to open the gates I run out without listening to the questions and remarks that followed behind me. 

For our class weekly writing we had to go on a website and find an image to describe. Then write a description on the picture in present tense.

I did mine about a girl around the age of 13, that had run away from home with her bike because someone she knew died. I think that I chose this picture because I love bikes.
