Obsession+Elizabeth=N+M+B

(N+M+B=Netball+Minecraft+books)

Like my sum? I don't really have any obsessions to be honest. But I guess I need something so this is what I came up with: Obsession+Elizabeth=N+M+B=Netball+Minecraft+Books. It pretty much says my obsessions are netball, minecraft, and reading.

I love netball. I spend all my spare time practicing, mostly against a stone wall. It actually make good partner. its always there, dosen't annoy you, never drops the ball and normaly dose sensible throws. I've just finished the winter season. My team (me, Aisling, Maddy, Katie, Lily, Samanalie Aimee and Messalia last term) finished second in our grade, C2. My mum was our coach. I'm going to do summer netball. Are you obsessed with any sports?
  
I'm guessing you know what minecraft is. You do, don't you? If you don't know find out. It should be quite easy. (Clue: It's a really popular and fun computer game.see my last post for more info and pictures.)  I only started playing this year and I don't know much stuff yet. I prefer creative. I'm making this really cool house on creative. It's going to be a giant pyramid fountain. I also play survival. Yesterday I died in a pool of lava when I had about 100 redstone and coal. Have you made anything on minecraft that you are really proud of?

I really love books. They're so cool . So far this term I have read 47 books. My dream is to became a writer. The cool thing about books is that they take you far away without actually moving you.When you read them you kind of became another person and see stuff though their eyes. And when you write books  you create world and make your dreams come true for somebody else. You can tell stuff to the world or entertain your audience. What do you dream of becoming? 
       

Medival minecraft viillage

Over the least few weeks we have been working on a making a medieval village on minecraft. I made the granary and a few of the farms. Here are some screen shots. What building would you of done and how would you design it?

Medieval times

At school we have been learning about medieval times. Reading books has really helped me learn stuff and also enjoyed watching powerpoints and videos. Recreating medieval buildings and pretending to be be medieval people on minecraft are also really fun and effective ways of learning.

we learnt a lot about people villages and knights in this unit. I feel like we could of focused a bit more on towns and people like kings and knight. Also food and entertainment are two things we could of looked at a bit more

Electives

This year in electives I have done science and now I am doing technology challenge.

I found science a bit boring, though we did learn quite a bit and get to take home some cool things, such as ice-cream, bath bombs and sherbet We did lots of experiments and found out about our body, chemical reactions and heaps more.

In technology challenge we got a challenge to do every. Normally it is to make something out of a range of household materials, such as newspaper, cellotape and string, So far we had to make a caase to protect a egg, a searcher that carries 10 kg and a freestanding tower that is  as tall as possible.  

Tech

At tech so far I have done movie making, electronics and woodwork. At the monument I am making a spoon. I have learnt how to make a movie, and how to use tools such as saws and drills. Movie making has been my favourite class so far 

The Middle ages

Our top at school at the monument is medieval times. So far we have learnt about medieval castles, different ranks in medieval society and about merchants in the middle ages. It has been really interesting. I would like to look at medieval food and cookery, slavery in the middle ages and the basic life of most people in the middle ages. A fun learning idea would be cooking our own medieval meal.

Book group

At school we have book group, or book clubs. My group read running out of time. It was quite good for getting me to qask questions about what I was reading and helped me not to read opn and on and lose sense of time
