What I enjoy doing at home

Recently I visited America and one of my friends there introduced me to something called a rainbow loom. Its a plastic machine that you place rubber bands on and then get a hook and loom it. After you loom it you pull it off and it makes a bracelet. I really enjoy making bracelets whenever I have some spare time. There is only one problem with a rainbow loom, the more bracelets you make the more rubber bands you have to buy! I like the rainbow loom because its something fun to do when your bored and the bracelets look really cool. What is your favourite hobby to do at home?

Statistics

In the past couple of weeks we have been learning statistics. At the beginning of the year we had a statistics test and then today we had another one to see if we had improved. I think I did improve. I learnt how to use a protractor to draw in the angles on a pie graph. I also don't think I will be forgetting how to work out the mean, median, mode and range for a while to. I think I still need to work on working out the angles of the sectors on a pie graph using data. I know how to do it but sometimes I forget how to. I think something that helped me learn effectively was probably completing all the sheets for our follow up activity and then marking it helped to because if you look at the answer and if your answer is wrong looking at the correct answer makes you realize what you did wrong.

EOTC Week!!!

Last week was EOTC Week and it was really fun!!! On Monday we went to Nairnville and played field games, on Tuesday we went sailing, on Wednesday we went to this place called  camp Kaitoke and did 3 different activities there, on Thursday we went to Capital E and we made a video or we got to create a game, and on Friday we climbed up Mt Kau Kau. 
 
The most challenging day of the week was probably camp Kaitoke because we went orienteering and I still had a broken foot so it was really tiring hopping around trying tofnd things. I also found sailing really hard because there was a lot of new things we had to learn.
 
My proudest moment was kayaking with a broken foot because everyone was telling me I should do it but I was nervous to get my cast off but in the end I did it and it was actually really fun.
 
My favourite day was Thursday because I was someone who was getting filmed and it was really fun to try and learn the lines to say or watch someone mess up. My favourite part of the day was watching our video at the end.

Waikanae!

In the weekend I went to Waikanae with my cousin to visit some of her friends. When we got there we went down the road to the school. We went to the playground with a lot of monkey bars so that I could swing on them because I have a broken foot. After that we went in to their backyard which is down a large hill and there are lots of forests. We chose one to enter and went along a path with lots of obstacles like trees and plants. ( It was really hard on crutches. ) After a while of walking we turned back and went up to the house because it was lunch time, yay!
