Netball.

I think netball is the best sport in the world. The reasons for this is it is great fitness, awesome ball skills and it is just an amazing game. It is great for your fitness because you have training's, and in my team on Tuesday for first hour we only do fitness which is good to keep us fit. It makes you have awesome ball skills because you have to catch the ball even  when it is really slippery. You will learn how to do lots of different types of passes like bounce pass, chest pass which is the main one, high pass elephant pass which some people call it, a side pass and many more.  To me the best part about netball is winning and meeting new people who also like netball.

Another reason is that there is a wide range of positions you can play, so there would probably be one just right for you. In netball there are seven positions you can play. C, WD, WA, GD, GA, GK, GS. I play GA which means that you are allowed in two of the thirds and when the ball is by the hoop you have to shoot it so you can get a point. It is really fun.

This is my story on why I think netball is the best sport.

A long walk to water- section 5

1. Nya notice that the boss would joke around with them and then he would talk to them earnestly and if they still didn't listen he would talk to them angrily but he tried his best not to do that.
2.He is similar to him by his rules, like he would joke around and be like them and then if they didn't do there job he would talk to them in a earnest voice or try and have a conversation to them to make them do it and if they still didn't do there job he would get fustrated and start to yell.

A long walk to water- section 6

1. I thin Nya's father is referring to the school when he says "Can't you guess?" and is seeing if Nya would know what they are building.
2. To Salva Rochester would be a completely different place. One because there are no dirt roads, it would be way colder than his old home and in the story he said "I am seeing more white people in this minute, then I have seen in my whole life. So moving there would be a very big difference from his old home in South Sudan.
3. I think Salva should have listened to his Dad because if he went he probably would have had to fight in the war. Although if he stayed hidden and came out at night he might of been able to go see his family. But it would definitely of been safer to stay home.
4. I think water has the power to bring people together, although in some situations it could bring people apart. Like if water suddenly squirted out of the ground in a place where they don't have water it would probably bring them together, especially if it was clean healthy water. In some cases it could drive them apart if there was someone waiting that was rude and impatient and someone was taking awhile they could get angry and get in a argument which would make it take longer to get the water and drive them apart, but that wouldn't happen very often.

Of course summer is the best season of the year like who wouldn’t agree with me. Here are some of the reasons why summer is the best season of the year. Firstly you can just jump in the pool without it being cold, and swim for the whole entire day. Without getting cold. Normally in summer rivers, beaches and pools are much more warm and you can go swimming in them as much as you want. There are also some really cool floaties that you can play with in it.

Secondly Christmas is in summer, one of the biggest events of the year for me. Because you get given presents and on Christmas all my family comes round and we have an absolute blast. Then the next day is boxing day, on boxing day my family comes to my house and we swim all day and do obstacle courses around the pool. It is way better than staying inside on a cold and gloomy winter's day.  On new years eve on the dot of midnight we sometimes all jump in the pool.

Thirdly you can stay outside until dark and not get cold. Just run around on the grass. Or go for an 8:30 swim and not get cold. You can have a BBQ every night and have your friends come over and play outside until dinner then go back outside after dinner. Or have dinner outside. I love the smell of sausages on the barbecue sizzling away. Those are all the reasons why summer is the best season of them all.

super powers

If I got to have a super power I would have invisibility. It would be awesome. One of the reasons why is you would be able to listen to peoples conversations without them knowing. Like if it is important stuff, or just being noisy and walking up to people and listen to what they talk about. I just think that would be really fun.

Another reason is you could scare and prank people easily. Like walk up to someone and tap them on the back when know one is behind them. Or run up behind or in front of someone and tip water onto them. It would be fun to mess around with your siblings with it, and you could easily win hide and seek.

It would also be great for tricking people like one second you be in one spot and the next you be in the next spot without them seeing you move. You could also watch people who you think are suspicious if you were a police and see if they are actually good or bad. So you could get the case in. It would also work as a spy or detective to clear up or finish the mission or case. Those are some of the reasons it would be awesome to be invisible.

This week we have been practising paragraph writing so here is mine called super powers.

A long walk to water section 4

1. I think Salva would share the water because he wouldn't like people to leave him in that posotion so he wants to do what the people would do to him.
2. I think uncle wants to leave and fight in the war because he wants to help the people but he doesn't want Salva to go with him incase Salva would get hurt.
3. The groups attitude against Salva changed when the uncle got murdered and so he had know one to help him and protect him from the rest so the group took advantage of that and started bullying him. Salva could prove them wrong by finding his own food and water.
4.  Salva thought he saw his Mum and yelled out to her but then he ha d a flash back to his uncles words and realised he was pretty much trying to say your family has died.

7/8 MNL Music

In music we have been practising a song called Smelly Cat so we can learn it. So far I have learnt how to do an A major,  E major and a D major. I have also learnt how to play a couple of notes on the keyboard. I am looking forward to being able to play Smelly cat on the guitar and maybe on the ukulele or keyboard. And listening to the class play it all in a group together.
