Father's day piece of Writing

On the 4th of September it was Father's Day and of course all of us love our Father's so much and are all important to all of us. In Gri11 2.0 we had to right for Father's Day writing, a Description a Recount or a Procedure, and today I have Recount on a moment I had with my Dad.

On the 15th of May 2016 my Dad and I went down Rangitikei Street in Palmerston North. We went to Rebel Sport, Stirling sports, and Kelly shoes to fit some rugby boots for the season. It was the first time going out in town with my Dad having a great time together.

We bought some shiny new boots, and went back home. During the day my Dad and I Played Chess and Rummikub. He always made me win the rounds when we were playing chess. In the afternoon the sun comes down and twilight starts to fall .

We have some family time in our kitchen having a drink and eating some food. My Dad had a surprise before we went to go off to bed. He said “tonight we’re not going to bed, tonight we’re going to watch All Blacks vs Wales.”  I was so stoked to hear of what he just said. Suddenly my jaw drops to the ground.  I couldn’t wait another minute to enjoy watching some rugby with my Dad for the first time.

We watch the first  half of the rugby cheering for the All Blacks. Two minutes later Julian Savea scores a spectacular try.

Dad and I were celebrating and having a great time watching rugby. When the game finished the All Blacks won against Wales 46-6. I was so glad that the All Blacks had won.

I was so thankful for Dad because I had never watched an All blacks game with him ever before, and it was so cool to have one on one experience watching a rugby game together.

The next morning as soon as I woke up I thanked Dad for what he did yesterday and last night.

Thanks for being a great Dad and I hope you enjoyed the recount. Xoxoxoxoxox

My Olympic country report

Luxembourg is one of the smallest countries in Europe. It is a landlocked country and its surrounding areas are France Germany Belgium Its spoken languages are French, German and Luxembourgish.

One of Luxembourg environmental issues are a lot of traffic issues in their city.

There other environmental issue is acid rain in their country caused by humans making pollution like oil power plant station for e.g. making pollution in the air which one of their other environmental issue is a lot of pollution in their country.

The population of Luxembourg is 576,243 (2016).

Its attractions are Notre-dame cathedral, Luxembourg, the bock and also many more great attractions in Luxembourg.

In the schools of Luxembourg

The Luxembourg constitution allows the state to organise education. This means most schools are public and tuitions do not have to be paid. There are, some schools that are private schools that follow a similar programme.

The president of Luxembourg is Jean-claude juncker he was born December the 9th 1954 and is the age of 61 years old.

He started his career at the university of Strasbourg (in France). His parents were Joseph Juncker, and Marguerite Juncker.

The Flag of Luxembourg is surrounded by A horizontal triband of red, white and light blue like the Netherlands flag and the french flag.

The production

On the 4th of July 2016 we performed our production Cinderella and Rockerfella and for me it was a big success.

Usually I rehearsed couple of times to practice but since I've gotten even better at my role I"m gonna make it even better tonight.

As I slowly creep back stage my heart pounds a million miles an hour like a plane zooming at full speed and not seeing it with a single trace.

I suddenly realize that I'm very nervous that i'm trembling like an earthquake. I get given my microphone and start warming up to get on stage excited and ready to go.

As soon as I walk up on stage my heart stops beating. I see a whole bunch of people in the crowd but now its my time to shine.  I think to myself "come on Hyacinthe this is what you have been practicing for this whole time."

I finally say my first two lines and then as soon i said my lines i got straight into it.

Overall i had a great time at the production and the production could've been done without the teachers.

My favourite thing to learn in grill 2.0 is…..

In our classroom this year, we have a fancy learning space that no one in our school has for example a list of things like:

Bean bags
Double/triple mini classrooms and big classrooms
54 Apple devices
Hammocks
Fooseball
10 Spinning chairs
and Leaners

Sometimes we don't even know how lucky we are to have this kind of learning space but now I'm going to explain all of you digital people of what my favourite thing to learn in Gri11 2.0 is.

Some of you digital people are probably thinking how do you learn like this in a fancy class like that, but it's our responsibility to get trusted of what we do in our spaces and when we learn, which also includes digital citizenship.

For our learning we have something called fast track, It's a google sheet where you put all your learning links on the google sheet with your names.

You get set tasks from your teacher on a digital device then you fill it out and then after you copy and paste your link onto fast track.

In the old days when you had assignments you filled it out on a piece of paper but since the technology has evolved, our teachers thought we can step forward in our learning and get to learn on devices, ladies and gentleman.

To be honest I think fast track is my favourite thing to learn in Gri11 2.0 because it's such an easy way to learn in Gri11 2.0 and that's what I call a short cut to learning, Ladies and Gentleman.

It's good to learn like that because the teachers can go and check what you have done because the google sheet is shared with the teachers which means they can see what you have done in your fast track instead of calling a student every two minutes to check their tasks.

We've got writing tasks, Maths tasks and even other stuff including integration.

I also do these activities in learning spaces like I wrote on my blog, learning spaces in Gri11 2.0. (go to older posts to check out  learning spaces in Gri11 2.0.)

It's really a pleasure to learn like this in Gri11 2.0 and hope the best in our
Learning.

My trip to france

On the day that I left to France on the 9th of December I knew some fun was going to be organised.

We head on the plane and wait patiently for the plane to take off and vanish away in the sky.

It took a long 1 hour and finally land at auckland airport ready to wait for the next flight which is Auckland to Hong Kong.

                                        7 hours later

We head onto the plane for hong kong and enter in the gates where the planes park themselves.

The plane does a fast smooth take off and disappears in the sky without a single trace. On the plane to hong kong their was some movies to entertain myself and have a great time.

I watched on the plane some movies like, despicable me 2,minions,and paper towns which were some great movies but I can't go through them I have to continue on.

                                                  14 hours later

We hope on our last plane from hong kong to paris which paris is our destination. We had arrived at hong kong 8 hours ago because we had a delay. 

                                                   13 hours later

I couldn't wait another millisecond to land this big plane and go put my first footsteps on french soil.

I finally got to touch the floor with excitement. We take the bullet train to a place called Angoûleme and whats exciting is my grandparents are their to pick me up and so they did.
