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.

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!
