Information Report

By Anonymous -
This term we are writing an information report about a country. We got to choose what country to write about and I chose South Korea. First we had to make a plan we have to write 7 paragraphs and a conclusion. We then categorized where each information should go in terms of different paragraphs so it flows better with the help of our teachers. We then found a bunch of information and wrote it in a doc while doing this we had to remember to link where we got the information off so we can credit them at the end. Once we have finished our plan we would then start putting our information we found into structured paragraphs. Here is my plan:

This week we got to draw a piece of paper out of a box and that would have a random country on it. With that country you had to do some research about it and write some instructions on a skill or game from that country. Next week we will be picking a type of food and making it then bringing it to school so there will be a whole assortment of food for everyone to try from all over the world but I will only be sharing my instructions maybe next week will be about the food. :) Here is my instructions on how to play Hul Gul: How to play Dutch Hul Gul Materials: *Buttons or any large quantity of small objects. *People to play with ( Any amount of people except by yourself) Gather buttons Give each player 10 buttons Each player places any amount of buttons up to 10 in their hand. Player 1 then holds out their hand face down with the buttons in hand so the other player(s) can’t see. Player 1 now asks another player (Player 2) how many buttons do I have in my hand.

Cross Country

Last week on Thursday my school had cross country. In my age group the year 8s had to run 3km and I came 5th which means I will be going to zones. At 9:00 am the whole school walked down to Walter park to start running, first was the year 8 boys and we finished with the year 6 girls. Everyone ran really well and tried their best I had a lot of fun running and cheering people on. After everyone was super tired and exhausted. Have you ever done cross country if you have how did you do?

For the last few weeks every Thursday we have been rotating between 4 sports in our home base's: Cricket, Lawn Bowls, Softball and Korfball.

My home base has done all of them except Lawn Bowls and in our next rotation we will be doing that. Have you ever played Korfball before?
