Recount writing

Last week For writing I wrote a Recount about my holiday. we were told to write a recount about our holiday but put in elaboration to our writing. First before we started writing we had to plan our writing. I wrote my story about Xbox and need for speed (bad idea) because i had to elaborate on so many things but I finished elaborating on what a Lamborghini is and what happens in a drag race.

(please beware some of my story might not make sense but please comment and give feedback so I can fix my writing :)

BROOM BROOM is all I heard from the Tv as I drove really fast on a Saturday. During the Holidays me, Logan and Sam Played Need for speed for fun, to race each other and catch up with each other.

On Saturday I logged onto my Xbox one. As soon as I logged in Sam T invited me to a party. After that he invited Logan N to the party, once we were all in the party we all went on need for speed. As soon as we got on  Logan and Sam joined my game and then we drove to a drag race to grind money. To grind money you repetitively do a race. What seemed like FOUR hours was actually finally over because once we finished grinding Logan had 176,000$ in game and I had 160,000$ so Logan bought a Lamborghini huracan. his car is a dark grape purple that looked really nice. I bought a Lamborghini murcielago. My car is yellow with an Enjuku racing sticker on the top of the window with a sticker that says “BYE!” on the back because it's fast. The only things I got on my Lamborghini was a spoiler and the rims.

Once I was finished personalizing my car I left the garage and then we looked at each others cars. Logan had gone with a dark purple, my car was yellow/orange and Sam's car was black. Then we had to grind some more money to max upgrade our cars so once I had maxed my car out it had 1,100HP (horse power) And a top speed of 225 Miles per hour. Then I decided to vs Sam in a drag race.

In the drag race the game makes you do a burnout with a tyre heat meter to show how much your tyres are heated. Once the time has finished counting down the game tells you to keep perfect rpm but if you don't your tyres will spin a lot on the launch.

The car has A pointy nose with vent holes carved into the front. The rear of the car has a carbon strip in between the lights and the lower part of the car is black with more vents for cooling the engine

I thought that my car was going to be faster but I was wrong because his lamborghini aventador beat me in the drag race but I knew I was faster and more skilled than Logan. After that I built a MONSTROUS toyota supra with 1000HP. The car is faster than the lamborghini murcilago (murcielago) which is crazy because A lamborghini is a sleek, fast power house and the supra… is just a generic car but it's the engine that stands out. Once I was finished maxing the car out the final hp rating was 1097hp. Then I added the final touch… the paint I put on a bounch (Bunch) of different languages words that mean good bye because the car was going to be fast. then I started to play forza horizon 3. Forza horizon 3 is a game for car guys.

Once the game finished loading I realized that a youtuber with 600 subscribers was online so I asked him to invite me to his game and then I joined, He and a bunch of

other people were playing around at the airport/dragstrip Because he doesn't do drifting or circuit racing so I had to build a drag car to compete with all the other people but I couldn't keep up because i don't tune drag cars I tune drift cars. After that I went onto online adventure. Online adventure is a series of four races. The goal in the four races is to get the most experience points to win the championship and get an amount of cash. When I joined the game makes you choose a car depending on the class that everyone has voted on. Once I got in I saw that everyone had voted D class which is the class for SLOW cars but… I thought I had a plan but my plan failed because I thought that taking a 400hp 1940 woody wagon with stock tires and three gears would have an unfair advantage but I had the disadvantage.  

Multiplication doubling and halving

In Maths I have been learning Doubling and halving To solve multiplication problems Using this strategy You must take any multiplication question that your stuck on. For example 16X3, So I half 16 and double 3 so that would be 8X6 and the answer to 8X6 is 48 so that must be the answer to 16X3. WALT I am learning to make multiplication Problems easier by using Doubling and halving.

Weather art

This term we have been learning about weather. In art I created a stormy night picture with lightning. First I started with my lightning we couldn't make it thick or strait and it was hard because I had to press so lightly that the brush would only skim across the page. Then I did the black cloud so all we did was dab the page with black so there was like a big black sun. Lastly I did the glue on the silhouette and we stuck it on the paper to the bottom of the page. Here is my finished product

tessellation pattern

for the last week we have been learning about symmetry First we did rotational symmetry then we did tessellation which is this. first we started by learning what tessellation symmetry was and then we did this . We were told to make something to show what tessellation is. Here is what I made

division and multiplication DLO

In maths I have been learning multiplication strategies. I have learnt to solve multiplication problems using five times table. When you are stuck on a maths question do this. For example if I am stuck on 8X6 I would split the six into a five so 8X5=40 then you do 8X1 and that equals 8 so if you put 40 and 8 together it makes 48 so that means 8X6=48 because if you add the 1 to the 5 it makes 6. We also learned about division and how to solve them. For example 56 Divided by 7. So what you do is you split 56 into two numbers 35 and 21 then you put in what times table you used to get those two number so for 35 I used 5 times and for 21 I used 3 times so if you add 5 and 3 it equals 8 so 56 divided by 7=8
 here is my work to explain this strategy.

Rotational symmetry

For the past two weeks we have been learning about rotational symmetry. rotational symmetry is when a object For example a fidget spinner has three parts when you spin it its always going to be the same so we were told to make shapes that had rotational symmetry (a fidget spinner) This is my work

Antarctica descripton

For literacy we have been learning about Antarctica. We were told to write about Antarctica so we had to find facts about Antarctica. We started learning about Antarctica when we went on a trip to the Antarctic center to learn about explorers the weather and the animals that live in Antarctica. Then we were asked to choose a topic between Animals, explorers and weather and climate. Once we had chosen our topic we were told to write a story about Antarctica before we start on our topic. Here is my writing

introduction	1of 7 contenents, desert
characteristics	Cold 25% bigger than europe 2x the size of  australia, covered by snow has land underneath, has 90% of worlds snow . 2500 meters (2.5 km) deep snow. hard to live. coldest place on earth. Surrounded by water. The south pole can be found there. Doubles the size because of sea ice White desert
evaluation	I think that antarctica is a place that you should visit some day

                                      Antarctica

Crisp,white and unwelcoming. Antarctica is considered a desert because it has no rain. It is also 1 of the 7 continents in the world.

Antarctica is 2 times the size of Australia and 25% bigger than Europe. It has some amazing landscape that will blow you away for example massive glaciers and crazy ice platforms that overhang the a white cloudland. Antarctica has an active volcano named Mount erebus, mount erebus first Formed in 1908 and the last eruption was in 2011. Mount erebus also had a plane crash in 1979. A DC-10 with 257 people on board crashed at mount erebus and killed all people on board. Antarctica has 90% of world snow which if you think about is really fascinating because that means that the rest of the world only has 10 percent of the world's fresh water. Antarctica also has 70% of the world's fresh water so If you melted the whole of antarctica the world would have more fre
