Book review

The sleepwalker (Cherub)
James Adams is a secret agent at Cherub. Cherub uses kids to go on missions because people will never suspect that they are agents. Cherub heard that a kid called Fahim tried to blame his dad for taking down the plane (because he heard him talking about it on the phone.) So they sent James to try and find  out if Fahim was lying or not.

A plane crashes and the 345 passengers all die. 12 year old boy called Fahim called the police to blame his father for the plane going down but he was scared so he hung up before he had finished.

The Cherub series is action packed and will always keep you on the end of your chair. I would recommend this book for boys who like action/fighting and who are 12+

Science Fair

My science fair is on parachutes to see if a bigger parachute will stay in the air for longer. My smallest parachute was 10cm and I went up in five until I got to 30cm. I timed the parachutes as they were falling. Then I put it into a table and graph.

Bad Product or Service

My Mum brought a cupboard off the internet. We had to go pick it up from the Papamoa Warehouse. When we got it home we decided to open the smallest one. We had made half of the small cupboard when we found that they hadn't drilled a hole. I had make a hole with a screw driver but I still couldn't add the next piece on because I made the hole to low.

Cross Country

On Monday the 24th of June 2013 Tauranga Intermediate school did cross country. The races were split up in year seven girls, year seven boys, year eight girls and year eight boys. Im a year eight boy so I had to wait for all the races to end.  The year seven girls race was first and was interesting because Meila broke a record. I was warming up with Lachy because he is one of the fastest people in school. When we were lined up got got butterflies in my stomach because I hate it when there is heaps of people running close together. When I was running up behind the turf my calf muscles got real tight. I ended up getting the placing 59th that was a lot better than last year when I got 78th.

Computer Game

Plants vs Zombies is a game were you have to survive for one round. In Plants vs Zombies you get plants to try defend against the zombies in the backyard of your house. There are lots of different Plants and Zombies The Zombies get harder as you complete more rounds, they get buckets on their heads and get armor. You get better plants when you complete rounds.

My Parents Jobs

My Dad used to be a builder but now he is down in Christchurch now because of the earthquake. He is not a builder he is a person  who decides if the buildings should get demolished. He works in a office that is surrounded by a two meter high fence with barb wire on the top. the barb wire is there so the angry people that lost their homes can't hurt the people inside the fence.

Diaoog

"Hurry up and do the lunch boxes!" "Yelled Kayla."
"Its not my turn, its Daniels," "Ben said."
"Replying angrily," "I did it yesterday."
"No I did it yesterday!" "Screamed Ben."
"Your such a lier Ben, " "daniel said.  "
"What ever," "I said trying to end this conversation."

Free Writing

Next year I am going to boys college  It is going to be different because I haven't been in a class with desks in it before. It also would be weird because of the older people there and because of how big the school is. But I think that Tauranga boys college  is a good school and I will like it after a while.

Weekend

On Friday I went on the bus to my friends house his stop is the last one. When we got there his dad was home. We went inside and got some cereal for afternoon tea and started playing playstation.

On Saturday I had an a rugby game but I wan't aloud to play because of my sprained shoulder. We were playing Tauranga Sports and they didn't have there best player Penny. I was sitting on a bench watching the game and running on the water for our team. I also ran on the tee for my friend Mannaki because he is our kicker. We ended up winning the game 28-21.

Some One Special

My cousin Nickels (Nicholas) is in the army and he has just finished his basic training. He is a very friendly and pilote person he always uses hes manners when he is offered something or gets given something he likes to play soccer because when we go to our other cousins he plays with us. He is in the army for being a helicopter pilot. He is very funny and he always maks me laugh when we play games.

Charging At School

In room 42 we have been arguing that we should be aloud to charge our laptops at school. If we are aloud to charge our laptops in class it could cost up to $40,000 per year. It also is dangerous with 20 chords going round the classroom. People would come to school with dead laptops. I think that we should be able to charge in the third block or we should be able to charge them at lunchtime so that we can still do some work.

A3 Academic Excellence

In the weekend My family went to the transfer to do some recycling at the transfer station in Greerton. The transfer station is tet up so that only some types of recycling can go in like (cardboard only.) I was recycling cardboard and ice cream containers. But you can recycle a lot of things there like glass, news paper and metal. We have also been to Save Mart to recycle some of our old clothes because we have been cleaning out our garage we were also giving our shoes into the bins. When you go recycle your clothes and shoes they go to charities who then give them to people in need.

Felling About The Weekend

On Saturday I was worried about the rugby game against Allblacks and the French. I got more nervous because the French team scored first. I was disappointed when Aaron Cruden missed his first two shots at goal. I was relieved when we got into the lead, but still scared that the French could win. I was proud  
when the Allblacks finally won.

Do a sport for a entire seasoned

G.5
Physical Activity And The Outdoors.
In term 1 2013 I paired up with Damian, Milly and Caitlin from Rimu House. We started of just playing volleyball for fun, none of had ever played volleyball for a team before. Our very first game was against the other Rimu Team, We ended up beating them 86-48. We ended up winning all of our games until we came up against a Kahikatea team which was the closet out of all our games. We were told to look at the notice board outside the sports office at lunchtime to see if our team had made it to a final. We looked at the notice board and we saw our name the (FLAGS) in the grand final. This came as a big surprise to us because we never thought we would make it any were near here. This was even closer than the Kahikatea game. But we ended up winning the whole competition.

Could there be zombies?

In Africa there is a disease called nodding disease, this disease has spread over more than three thousand children in Africa. The disease causes the children to sit and nod but can make them do even more weirder things like seizures and to wander off. More than two hundred deaths have been caused by this disease. Parents have to tie up their children to stop them from wandering off, the children chew on there lead trying to get away. People think this could be the start of a zombie apocalypse.

Why are ants so strong

Ants are so strong because they are so small that their muscles dont have heavy parts to move round. The smaller the insects the more weight it can carry for its size. Ants also have their skeleton on the out side. Ants can normally carry 100x of their own body weight.

Questions

I wonder how the planets move around in space?
I wonder if there are alliens?
I wonder why ants are so strong?
I wonder if Zombies are real?
I wonder what if there were no rules?

Cemetery

On Friday we went down to the 17th Avenue Cemetery to get some ideas for a statistics graph. Me and Damian were paired and we had to find a statistics question. We decided that our question will be if more people die over fifty or below. At the end we had to wash our hands to get rid of the tapu.
