Yr9 Gymnastics
My favourite apparatus is the trampoline because it was the only one where I felt like I already knew what to do. I've learnt how to do a full turn properly.
I have learnt to like it a little bit more than I have. I've also learnt some new skills on the different apparatus.Wednesday, October 27, 2021
Grammar
This week the tasks are based on Grammar. The task that we have to do is to rewrite the sentences to make them make sense. The theme the sentences that we have to rewrite is social media madness.
1. I have a few good friends there you'd have a lot in common with!!!
2. Why does life have to be complicated, I'm so lonely, wide awake and have nothing to do. Some guys are real jerks. How can you tell someone it's over and not tell them in person?
3. What's happening on Saturday? Oh wait is it someone's birthday?
4. Well on my way back from New Orleans. Headed straight to Georgia in the morning. Making that money. Y'all got to cash out, won't be till late afternoon but wanna chill a little bit before I leave. Who's down?
5. I just want to say thank you to my aunt since all of us were little you have always helped us whether it was just a simple life lesson or taking us to do something fun. To this day you continue to teach me and help, I can't express how appreciative I am for everything you've done. So this is for you aunt Tina, thank you, I love you and you're the best aunt anybody could ask for.

My holiday
I'm going to write about my time during my holiday.
Physically, I went with my friends to walk around the mall for her birthday but most of the time I was just laying on my bed watching a show on Netflix. The only walking I did when I was at home was walking to my bed all the way to the kitchen or going to the living room.
Intellectually, I didn't really learn much since I was just eating or sleeping. I also learnt that my brother wasn't bad at cooking when he cooked us dinner and when he would make us brunch.
Emotionally, I felt good when I went out with my friends and family but for the rest of the break, I didn't feel that well because it was raining for the majority of the school break. I didn't do some of the things I was supposed to do because I had no motivation to do anything because I just felt pretty sad and I didn't know why. boredom played a big part in why I didn't really feel good because I didn't know what else to do but it felt nice that I didn't have to wake up early to go to school.

Quotation marks
This week we are learning about Quotation marks, like where and where not to put them, for example, you put quotation marks when saying a title of a book, song or other works. One of the other things is where to put the commas and full stops. Here are some examples.
1. Write a sentence where someone speaks.
"I don't have my work," says Natalie.
2. Write a sentence using a song title.
One of the songs I listen to is "Dreams" by Grent Perez.
3. Write a sentence where someone asks a question.
"Can we get ice cream?" asked Kurt.
4. Write a sentence where someone says something, and there's an exclamation point.
"I need help!" yells Mum.
5. Write a sentence where someone says a quotation from someone else.Tuesday, October 19, 2021
