Netbook Reflection 2012

I must admit, this year has been pretty challenging but it has also been a lot of fun. I love using my Netbook to share all my journeys with the world. It is also a great learning tool. For example...

Our Netbooks help us to learn at school and for most of us at home too. There is an advantage to taking your Netbook home. Like, getting ahead or catching up on your work. At my class we work independently. So we can work on whatever we want, when we want. It is also helps us to be cyber smart. We also like to take charge so instead of bugging your teacher or our friends, you can just search it up on the internet. Plus it’s way better than working on a boring old books and pencils.

But Netbooks are not perfect. Sometimes the internet doesn't work. I think we should make the Netbooks safer and stronger because it can break really easily. I would like our Netbooks to be a higher quality. And the webcam is also has a couple of problems.

But over all I have loved working with my Netbook. Thank you to all the people that made this happen. I'm very excited to use this amazing tool again next year!

Have you heard of Archery?

Archery is one of many olympic events. The aim of the event is to shoot arrows at a target and they need to be the most accurate to be crowned the winner! Did you know that the first Archery competition was set in Finsbury, London, in 1583. It attracted more than 1,000 participants!

If you are thinking about trying Archery you will need a bow, arrows, a target, and gloves to protect your hands. You can play Archery indoors or outdoors. In indoor Archery competitions archers must shoot 20 ends using only 3 arrows at each end, the distance that indoor archers must shoot from is 18m to 25m. Outdoor Archery also has the same rules except the distance for outdoor Archery is a range of 30m to 90m!

It will take a lot of hard work to win gold in the olympics for Archery. You will need to have great hand and eye coordination and also great accuracy be able to even be considered to be in the olympics! The most accurate person and the one that shoots their arrow from the furthest distance win the big gold medal!!!

Why don’t you try out Archery and see if you are good at it. If you are you might even end up in the olympics some day!!!

Tickets to Auckland


This week end my mum and uncle brought some tickets for my Grandmother and Grandfather to come here. They really just want to see my cousin because they have not talked each other face to face in five years!!! They must really miss each other. My granddad didn’t want to come with my grandmother because he was worried about the house but my grandmother but she might miss her flight, she almost did the last time she went out of the Philippines but good thing my granddad was there. Come to think of it, it is her first timeout of the country by her self. So he had no choice he had to come with her firstly because we begged him to and secondly he was worried about my grandmother. It is so exiting.

This morning we talked about where would we take them? First we said Waihiki island but its winter its going to be really cold at the beach. Then we all said in the same time “Rotorua.” It’s perfect sins its winter we can go to mt.Ruapehu. “Can not wait.”
