Taekwondo

Hey guys, I'm back with my learning. On Thursdays we do Taekwondo and this Thursday we did a  kicking challenge for Taekwondo. If you don't know how this challenge works, what we had to do is see who can kick the highest out of the whole class. The pad where we had to kick, kept on getting higher and higher which means we had to jump  higher.  Here are the rules to this challenge. 

1. If you kick and you touch the ground or you fall down your out.
2. If you kick but then you miss your out.
3. If you don't scissor kick your out.

 Here is some photos of this session. 



I think that this challenge was pretty hard because while you were kicking you had to jump really high and kick with your leg at the same time which is hard. Overall I came 4th place. In my opinion, I think I did really well.  I was really surprised that I had it this far to the challenge. Feel free to leave a comment. BLOG YOU LATER!

Cyber smart - Blog Commenting

Hey viewers, I'm back with my learning. So yesterday for cyber smart, We looked at writing a good quality blog comment. First we had to go on a padlet that Gerard made for us and put in some sentence starters for a blog comment. This was like our brain storming. Here is a screen shot of my padlet.

 Then we had to make a copy of a Blog commenting sentence starter template and had to fill it in. Here is my template
This was really easy but took me long to do. I think when you are commenting on a blog post or something else, you should check if you have something positive, Thoughtful and helpful. Feel free to comment. Blog you later!

Maths creation

Hey bloggers, Welcome back to my blog. So today, in maths, we were asked to use tooth picks, modelling clay and card board (for the platform) to make a tent. With the tooth pick and clay I made a big square for the base at the start, and then I thought it was going to take a long time so I made it a rectangle. The rectangle didn't work so I just made it a small square so it will be easy to work with. With the rest of the toothpicks, I made a 3D square and triangle so it will look like a tent. At the end it was very successful. Here is a photo of the finished product.


I think this was hard at first but then it got easy for me because I got the hang of it. One thing that was fun and frustrating was when the tooth picks and clay kept on falling because of the gravity. I found out that it can be harder than it looks like.  You should really do this at home for a challenge. All you need is clay, toothpicks and card board. Feel free to leave a comment. Blog you later!
