Ormond Olympics

Last week we did athletics at Ormond school on Wednesday the 11th of August 2021.

I really enjoyed doing the high jump because I  found out that I can jump 90cm and I came third.

Something that was a bit tricky was the throw because I can't throw far and I had a sore hand .

I was really proud of myself in the running because I came second place in the 200m sprints. 

I really liked the fun events in the afternoon because we did three-legged races, sack races, gumboot throwing and tennis ball on a spoon race.

 This was our first ever Ormond TV video.

Olympics

These are my slides about Janelle Price who is in the Olympics this year. 

 This week we were focusing on the ancient Olympics and I made slides about them to tell you what they were like in ancient Greek.

For Maths at the moment, we are focussing on measurement, mass and capacity.

Last week I made chocolate chip biscuits for our mass and capacity workshop.

I have written the recipe for you down below so then you can make these biscuits. They are very easy to make because it is just a little bit of batter and if you want a bigger batch of batter, then you can double the amount.

Ingredients:

3 Tablespoons of flour

3 teaspoons of sugar

45 millilitres of egg & butter mix

3 teaspoons of chocolate chips

(We used 3 tablespoons of buttery egg mix)

Method:

Add all ingredients in a bowl and mix until well combined.

Roll into balls and flatten with a fork.

Bake the biscuits at 180 degrees for 10 minutes.

Note: Whisk two eggs with 200g of melted butter for the butter and egg mixture.

They were delicious!

My Holiday.

On the first day of my holiday, we were doing a big tidy up in our house because our cousins and Nana and Poppa were coming up to stay with us for the week.

Finally the day came! We went to the airport to pick up Nana and Poppa and our cousins. We arrived at the airport just in time to see the aeroplane land on the runway. When it stopped moving, people started streaming out of the aeroplane like water flowing down a waterfall. At first we couldn't see our Nana and Poppa because they were the last people to come out of the aeroplane as usual! We all ran up to the window to wave at them, our cousin Ryker didn't even notice us and walked right past looking at himself in the reflection of the big, shiny windows. 

When we got home we unpacked the cars and put the suitcases and bags in my sister's bedroom. Our Nana and Poppa fell asleep on my sister's bed and slept for 10 minutes and then woke up. 

The next day we woke up and me, Kohe and Indie went to Anna & Co to get a haircut. When we got back from the haircut we hopped in the car and went to Galaxy World to play video games. When all of our credits on our cards had run out, we raced to the counter and got our prizes with the tickets that we won. I chose a unicorn glider, some clay and some lollies. I enjoyed going to Galaxy World!
