Term 3 is coming to an end, it is week 10 right now! Mrs Kennedy said we won't do chapter chat next Term because they don't think Granny Gangster is going to be a very good book. I am going to miss Chapter Chat because next Term is the last Term of the year! This Term has gone very fast. Maybe we could do our own Chapter Chat and we post our activities on our blog?Enough talk about Chapter Chat. This Term I took part in the HP speech competition finals. I didn't realise how nervous I was until I walked into the classroom door that day. On the night Mum and I got lost, trying to find the hall. There was a sign on the front office that said "THIS IS THE FRONT OFFICE (NOT THE HALL)". But there were some other people going in there so we ignored the sign and went in. We turned right and entered the hall. I had to sit at the front. I was the last person in year 5s & 6s to deliver my speech. At the end, everyone was buzzing about which ones they liked and which ones they think will win. The judges said it was a very hard thing to deside. I didn't place, but I was still proud. Mum said on the way home, that the ones that did win were true speeches, facts and stuff. I didn't really care. I was still proud.
On Friday last week, we had different teachers because our normal teachers were going to visit a different school. First I did poetry in the Hui. We had to write poems about someone special. I did two poems, one about Kaitlin, one about Jeremy. Second I did maths. We did a basic facts twice and if we bet our first score on the second one, we got a lolly pop. Only two people in the whole Knowledge Seekers got one. Then (Still in maths) we did an animal challenge. We had 20 questions and if you got at least 50% of it right, everyone who didn't already get a lolly pop in your group would get one. My group got 15/20 so we all got a lolly pop. By then everyone had a lolly pop. And I also discovered that I LOVE orange Chupa Chups. Lastly (No longer in maths) I did tree art with Mrs Fraser. You had to draw the outline of the tree trunk with pencil. Then you had to colour the ground with different shades of green. You had to colour the sky with blue pastel with maybe some pink or purple. And you had to colour the leaves with red, yellow and orange.
