World Toilet Day

On the 19th of November it’s world toilet day. It’s a day to realise that some people in the world don’t have toilets.40% of the world do not have sanitation or toilets or 2.5 billion people.1.8 million people die from the fecally-transmitted diseases every year.There something called the big squat it is when thousands of people squat for one minute to raise awareness.Our class done it and most of our class struggled to stay up for one minute.

On the 20th and the 21st of October we had our school athletics carnival the house groups are Bridges,Davis and Hart i am in Bridges.The track events i went in were the 100m,200m and the 800m i came third in the 100 4th in the 200 and 5 or something in the 800.The field events i went were the Long Jump,High Jump and shot put i came third in Long Jump equal third in High Jump.I also went in the 4×100 metre relay our team came first in my team i had Luke,Douggie and Marcus.I reckon Bridges will win becaue we won most of the relays and they are worth extra points.The two days were really fun i had making the banners and painting my face Blue it was fun.

Motivation Media

Yesterday to the P.A.C we watched i show about rebounding and there was stories about people who rebounded from something bad that happened to them.We had it on two huge screens and it was really loud and i got a head ache at the start.

One of the people was Anna Mears she fractured her neck and it almost killed her it happened when she was competing she ran in to the back of someone else’ wheel and she landed really hard and and slamed her head on the ground.When she got out of hosbital she was always training everyday and could only last 2 minutes before her eyes got all blury.In 2008 she competed in the Beijing Olympics and she got a silver medal and she was crying after she won it.

There were two other people I cant remember there names but they kayaked from Australia to New Zealand it took them 3 years to decide if they wanted to do it or not but they were only out at sea for 62 days.  About half way there they went into a whirlpool they were paddling as hard as they can to get out of it but they didn’t get anywhere it took all there energy so they had to go in the cabin for a couple of days.When they got to New Zealand  there were heaps of people waiting there for them.

Three Goals For This Term

My goals this term for behaviour are to try not to get any yellow forms and try to go on pep and not be distracted by other things in the classroom and do the work that i am suppossed to do and also listen to the teacher when they are talking .

My goals for home are to do more chores around the house and not kick the footy up against the house and try not to break stuff and not jump around in the loungeroom and not break stuff in there as well.

My goals at school this term are to bring all the equipment to the class that i am going to also i would like to get better at guitar and learn other instruments.

Australian Rules Football

Hi my name is Isaac and I live in Australia and one of our biggest sports in Australia is Australian rules football or we call it AFL.We use a oval shape ball and you can kick it handball it and you can kick behinds or goals and the two best teams in the final series play in the grand final which is played at the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground).Some of our other grounds are Subiaco which is Western Australia the Telstra Dome which is in Melbourne as well AAMI stadium which is in South Australia and the GABBA which is in Queensland there is also AURORA STADIUM which is in Tasmania there some others but the teams don’t play there much.There are sixteen teams I go for Collingwood there guernseys are black and white stripes. These  are some good websites to learn about AFL http://www.afl.com.au/   http://www.smh.com.au/sport/afl/ If you don’t know anything on AFL you should go to this website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_football

Where I Have Improved This Year

This year i think i have improved on my automatic times table and Algerbra.I also have been getting better with my measurement.I have improved on my computers and my blogging work and stuff like that.Our maths teacher always gives us simple methods to do our maths work.She always tries to improve our times tables by putting the numbers in a different orders and in a shape.

Next term i think i will probablly improve more om my computer skills and blogging and stuff .I reckon also that i will improve more on my time tables and other maths stuff.Hopefully we will have the same maths teacher as we did this term cause she is a really nice teacher and a good one.
