ESOLLL

 Greetings,

Today I will be sharing you three things that I have found very fun in ESOL this term. The first thing is doing kahoots I like it because some questions are really interesting and also fun at the same time because you get to compete with your classmates. I also like doing quizzes and playing games to help you with your English or grammar I like this because I also learn new things from it and how to properly say a word or how to properly write a sentence. 

Two new things that I have learnt during ESOL this term would be the grammar and some new English words that I was not familiar with, like cornucopia and contemplate. I've really learnt loads of things in ESOL and one of the biggest thing that I have learnt was grammar because I wasn't really the best at speaking English that much during a conversation, and our teacher really helped us a lot like where to put the right words on the right part of the sentence and to be honest I am not really sure if this blog post has the right grammar in it.

ESOL FUN

 Kia Ora,

Today I will be sharing some ideas that would make ESOL more fun. Like doing less blogging, maybe not blogging every time we come to class and I think that would make the class like ESOL more than they already do. But the activities during ESOL that I found very fun are doing kahoots and doing quizzes.

150 Word Story

 Greetings everyone,

Today I will be telling you on of the most challenging thing I have ever done in ESOL for this term. And this was about making a story with at least 150 words minimum but we needed to include these three words on our story and this were, contemplate, courageous and cornucopia. This was fun and as well challenging since I didn't know some of the words including contemplate and cornucopia. And this was fun because I had a chance to learn this words that I have never heard of. Overall making this story was fun because I got to write a story which I enjoyed writing.

Here is a story that I have made with only 267 words in total:

It was Monday morning at school where it was quiet, dauntingly quiet. It was the assessment day in Joshua’s class, it was a History test. Joshua was about to contemplate his work sheet as soon as the teacher handed it out but as he was skimming through the test sheet the teacher snatched it off of his hand and faced it down.” We’ll now begin the test, you can now flip up the test sheet” the teacher ordered out. Joshua flipped up the paper so fast wanting to finish it first even though he didn’t like tests.

 

The first thing he saw first was a printed out image of a cornucopia and questions about it and the history behind it. Joshua knew the answer to some of the questions about cornucopia on the sheet since he was studying last night about it, but he just can’t exactly remember it. He was stuck at the very first question about the cornucopia while he saw his classmates zooming through the test. But he was very courageous and he wanted to finish the work sheet even though he didn’t like doing tests. So he thought deeper in his mind trying to figure out the question about this cornucopia.

 

Finally he remembered. The pencil on his hand wrote down the answer so fast that the tip of the pencil snapped, but he was happy since he answered the question. He took another pencil out of his bag and quickly went back on the test. Fortunately all the questions were a breeze and he luckily finished the test first and submitted it. 

Term 1 Athletics Blog Post

Greetings Everyone,

Here in this blog post you will be able to learn some tips and some of the things I have done for athletics this term. 

The athletics activities we have done included shot put, discus, long jump, high jump and as well sprinting. Now I will be sharing you a few tips for each of the activities. For shot put you should use your stronger arm and as your throwing put your leg forward as the same side with the hand your are using to throw with. With discus to get more power I suggest you should use your waist. For long jump you should swing your arms up as you jump to get jump for further. With high jump you should only use 1 foot and do a scissor kick.

My score for each activities:

High jump: 1.35

Long jump: 3.8

Discus: 11.75

Shot put: 6.68

Overall athletics was fun because I like being active and play sports. And make sure to bring your PE gear everyday or sometimes you would not be able to play but fortunately I was a good boy and brought other shirts if I didn't have my PE shirt.

ATHLETICS DAY EVENTSS

 Kamusta,

Today I will be talking about athletics and the events I have participated on athletics day. The events I have participated on included high jump, long jump, javelin, house relay, 200 and 100m sprint. One of my favourite events that I enjoyed was 100 meter sprint because I simply just love to sprint and compete with others on sprints but unfortunately I was only competing with one guy so it was just the two of us and I ended up winning. My other favourite event that I did was relay because I like to compete with other people and race with them but unfortunately I didn't get participate on my 200m sprint because I was late and didn't know where to go.

9/11

 Kamusta,

Today I will be sharing you a timeline that I have created and together with what I have learned about the devastating events on 9/11 and how chaotic it was.

This is a timeline of what I think are the most important events on 9/11.

I was interested on the 9/11 events because it was really unfortunate how the plane crashed through the twin towers and I wanted to learn more about.
