Week 10 & 11 Highlights

Hei alle sammen (Norwegian),

Welcome back to my blog, today I will be sharing with you my weeks 10 and 11 highlights.

Cross Country

This week on Tuesday we had cross country. I came 7th out of all the year 7 girls. We did 6 full laps of the school and it was so hard. I was super duper tired. The complete week of 9/10 we did training for the big day. It was all worth a new yorker pizza at the end.

Reading

For our reading, we are doing an individual task sheet and if we did 6 tasks before week 12 we will get privileged to watch a movie. Of course, the teachers will be choosing the movie so it is appropriate for the topic. I'm not sure what it is but I will tell you in my next week's blog! 

Cantamath

Next week we are starting cantamath so I am excited about that.

Cantamath is a school competition (in this case class for us) that we enter each year and we have to create exciting projects and also enter a problem-solving group. Problem-solving is another thing we do in the classroom. It is where we are in groups of 3 or 4 and we get a problem and we have to work it out.

Ha det, (Norwegian) Lexie.

Week 6 | Highlights

Aloha kākou apau,

Welcome back to my blog, I am very excited as we are back to school this week. It has been a very cruisy week because we have been catching up on what we have been doing during lockdown/isolation. I am happy because I get to see my friends and teachers again and we have caught up and shared what we did during quarantine. 

Positive: I get my friends and teachers and get back to a normal routine

Minus: I found it kind of hard to switch back to our normal timetable

Interesting: Our classroom setup and schedule has changed and is changing

Thank you for reading my blog, 

hope you are all well and safe at home,

Lexie 😊

Quarantine | Week 4 of School

Bonjour à tous (french),

Hope everyone is doing well, today I will be talking about what I've been up to during quarantine.
I have been doing lots of things to keep myself entertained during this pandemic lockdown.

Drawing/Art

I have been doing some painting, like I painted an L (for Lexie) to be a sunset. I have also been using this app called procreate, procreate is a really cool app where you can choose different brushes and textures. I have drawn lots of things and here is one of them:

Zoom

I have also been doing some zoom calls with my friends to keep me entertained, we just talk like we would usually do at school. And also my best friend and we play games together.

Mothers Day

Tomorrow for mother's day, I'm going to make my mum a cake. I have never made a cake before so I'm going to try my best.

Here is a link to the recipe we are using!

Map Makers Race Book Review

Aloha Everyone,

Today I am giving you a book review about a book called, "The Map Makers Race" by Eirlys Hunter.

The main characters are called, Sal, Francie, Becket, Joe, Humphrey and (we can't forget their parrot) Carrot. The book is about a Race about making a map for a competition. There are lots of teams competing, Cody's Cowboys, Solemn Team, Monty's Mountaineer, The association of woman explorers, and most importantly, The Santander Family.

If I were to rate the book out of 10, I would rate it an 8. It was quite entertaining and I would totally recommend it! The book is really fun to read and it is good for people who like adventure books!

Term 2 Week 1 - Isolation

Hola Amigos,

Today I will be talking to you about what I've been up to in Quarantine/Isolation. Hope you are all doing well and staying healthy during this pandemic outbreak.

Spanish

You may have noticed in my introduction to this post I said "Hola Amigos", I said that because I am learning Spanish through an app called Duolingo, Duolingo is an app where you can learn any languages and they will give you little lessons on different phrases and more. One thing I remember the most is "Yo bebo agua" which means "I drink water".

Online School

Of course, we have started online school on Wednesday and it has been good, a couple of technical difficulties but other than that we have been doing well, our teachers have given us a timetable with things we can do throughout the week like posting a blog post.

Thank you for reading this week's blog post,

Lexie
