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.

Cartography in our classroom

maps 010On tuesday we started work on mapping we drew a map of Gold Coast,Queensland.And today was test day and we drew a map of Orford Tasmania.We had no help from Miss Wyatt or Mr Hand i think it was harder than the one we done on the Gold Coast.I dont think mine was very good cause i can’t draw.We had to put our key or legend in the top left of the page or the bottom right of the page.Miss Wyatt said that we could draw on a piece of scrap paper really hard and wipe it on the paper for effect but i didn’t do that cause i just finished in the time that we had.We had the whole lesson to do and after we finished we took a photo of it and stuff like that.

Sorell junior football club

Triumphing over adversity

Neil Armstrong landing on the moon

Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon on the 20th of July 1969.The reason he triumphs over adversity is because no one thought he could make it but he did and he had 11 seconds of fuel left before he made it to the moon.

The reason nurses in the hospital triumph over adversity is because everyday they could catch diseases and get flu such as swine flu and get very sick as well for surgeons they have years of training and I reckon some of them feel like quitting but most of them don’t.

A person with a drug addiction triumphs over adversity because some of them go to rehab and stuff like that.But some of them don’t and you can’t really do anything about that.

An umemployed person

An umemployed person triumphs over adversity is because they might not have any money and no house and could live in a cardboard box in the street. But they could get a job and get some and a house and stuff like that.
