The Rocket challenge.

Over Term Two, A guy came and taught us about Rockets. One of the topics to do with the rockets is safety. Safety was a big thing that we learned about because we had to be safe and then when we learnt about all the rockets stuff. We started to design and make the rockets. Some people put parachutes on them but my group tried to but it failed. Then when we made them, we launched them. These are some photos down below. Something that I learnt is that when we used big fins our rocket didn't fly high So we are going to try little fins for our next launch.

No words, Just notes

I come home from work on the first day of June when I hear music coming from the streets in Paris. I walk to my window and look outside and there is the cutest boy standing outside playing the guitar. Happily, I sat there listening to his songs all afternoon. As he was playing, I noticed people walking up to him and putting money in his hat sitting on the ground, so I thought I would do the same. I walk down the stairs from my apartment and head over to him with 5 dollars in my hand. I pop the money in and walk back up to my apartment. When the sun went down and the moon came up he packed up his stuff and walked off.

The next day I come home from work and hear the same music playing again so I went to sit next to my window and watched and listened to him all afternoon again. As it started to get dark, the boy started to pack up but before he left he yelled out and said bye to me, so I said bye back.

 A few weeks went by and he kept saying bye to me every night but on the 16th of June instead of saying by he said “hi my name is Jason what’s your name”. And I replied “hi my name is Kathrine”, then he walked off.

 Every day from then on we had an awesome conversations about random things, until one day when I came home from work there no music and there was no Jason. That night I went to bed worried because Jason was not there.

 The next day flew by and when I got home from work, Jason wasn’t there but what was there was a nurse standing outside my door. The first thing she said to me was “ Hi I am Jason’s nurse. Jason is in the hospital because he is very sick”. When I heard the word sick I was so devastated I almost fainted.

 The next day was the weekend so I did not have to go to work. The whole weekend I had to think of a plan to help Jason, but first I needed a team. So I called all of my friends. The next day was Sunday we spent the whole day discussing ideas which could help Jason and at the end of the day we had a plan. The plan was that we will try to make as much money as we can, by fundraising and then donate the money to the hospital for the patients, including Jason.
2 weeks went by and we ended up making a lot of money for Jason and the hospital.

As the following weekend came by we went to the hospital and donated the money. While I was at the hospital I went to visit Jason. When I walked through the door  Jason was laying in the bed with tubes all around him. I felt so sick seeing him laying there like that. He wasn’t awake so I didn’t really say anything.

A few days after I went to the hospital I had work again and when I come home from work I heard music. So I sprinted to the window and there was Jason playing the guitar. As it got late and he finished playing I invited him to dinner so we could talk.

When we were having dinner he said that a bunch of people donated a lot of money and that is how he got better because of all the medicine. He then said that he was so grateful for those people that did that. All I said was that it was me and my friends and his answer was a kiss.

The mystery of Max!

"Max come here"! My day started off with a nice walk until Max my dog started to run off. I think he was chasing something but I was not sure what it was. I start running in the direction he went which was up the hill. But he is so much faster than me I had to pick up my pace! As I was chasing after him all I was thinking about was that how he has never done this before. so then I ran over to a boy and his dog in the park and asked if he could help me find Max.

The boy's name was Henry and his dog's name was Molly. We both ran off looking for him every where until we come across some foot prints that looks exactly like Max's foot print's. So then we decided to follow them.

 We were walking for about an 15 minute's but it was worth it because as we walked through a bush, over a little hill there was Max laying in a bush with a little herd of pine cones. When I saw max sleeping with the pine cones My heart melted because it was the cutest thing in the world.

 Before Max and I walked home I said a big thank you to the boy that helped me and so now me and the boy Henry walk our dog's every day together and we have became best friends.

The runaway

I was hiking through the woods with my family and best friend on a sunny and hot day. It was so nice and peaceful. All you could mostly hear was birds singing and leaves rustling. 

As we made it to the river we decided to have lunch there and maybe even try out the kayak that is sitting in the water next to us. As we just sit down we here a noise it sounds like a roar getting closer and closer to us. Next thing 2 giant bears jump out of the bush.

My family, my best friend and I start running we run and run with the baby in my wife’s hands. We run up to the boat and stumble across the paddles so my best friend and I jump up the front and start paddling why my wife is in the back keeping my daughter safe.

 When we start paddling we notice that the bears can swim because there they are swimming towards us in the river. Next thing we hit some rapids so we had to hold on because they were so strong we almost fell out of the boat. But as we got our balance again we were off.

After a while of paddling the bears still had not given up and my best friend and I were getting tired. So when we started slowing down the bears got closer and next thing there were giant paws grabbing onto the boat. But just then my wife thought of a plan she said we can through things at them and might get them to stop so we tried it.

 A Few minutes later there was a bunch of thing floating in the river but no bears chasing us anymore.
