Year 7 Girls Zone Cricket

Yesterday 11 year 7 girls competed in the Zone Girls Cricket Competition which was held at Pukekohe Intermediate School fields. The games were played with 10 overs, no boundaries and no leg before wickets. We played 2 games with the first game at 9.40am versing Green Meadows and we won by a lead of 11 runs. The second game was versing Mansell from Papakura we also won that game after 6 overs. I had fun yesterday and i hope i get in the team again next year.

Student Learning Plan

Towards the end of the term each student had to complete a student learning plan. It was a reflection of what our goals are and how we can achieve them. Above are some of the goals that I put on my student learning plan.
I hope I can achieve these goals by the end of the year.

Book Bag

As part of homework for a book review the students from room 23 had to make a book bag from scratch. Firstly we made the actual bags at school. We then bought them home to complete. We made a book review to put on the bag which was encluding our favourite character, our least favourite character, the rating for the book, why you chose the book and who you would recommend the book to. I did m book bag on Best Friends its a book written by Jacqueline Wilson and is a catchy book to read.
This is my plot summary...


Born on the same day, Alice and Gemma have been best friends since birth. They both complement each other as they are exact opposites. Gemma is very loud, sporty and messy whilst Alice is gentle, very neat and likes playing with dolls. Gemma is the risk taker whilst Alice is reserved and wants to please people. If you've got a best friend you will be able to imagine how Alice and Gemma feel when Alice's parents decide to move along way away, to Scotland. The news devastates them both, having been used to having each other close to hand, suddenly they have to face the prospects of being miles away from each other. First there iis the sadness. Next there is blame. Gemma blames Alice's Mum for splitting them up. This is followed by Alice's own fear she tells Gemma that she wants to run away. The heart of the story is that their circumstances are out of the girls control. No matter what they do, the adults have made their decision and the children have no choice but to eventually cope with a situation they don't like. When the pair are split up, they have to find a way to keep in touch. Whatever Gemma does she cant do the right thing. Even when she tries hard she always seems to attract trouble. It is a book about growing up and the ultimate question is will the relationship between the two girls change or can best friend still be best friends from far away?


I enjoyed completing my book bag am happy with my end result.

ME Project

During this term we have been working on a "Me Project" at home. The projects were to show our personality and back round. We each had to chose a shape that represents ourself and what we like. I chose a jandal because i love the beach and the outdoors. I think they all look awesome on the wall and i enjoyed making them.

Touch Typing

Over the past few weeks our class has been practicing touch typing on a site called Dance Mat Typing. It teaches you how to touch type and about the home row keys. Today we took the test with covering the keyboard on a site Sense Lang. I got a result of 20 words per minute, with 69 characters typed, 23 mistakes and a success percentage of 67%. I believe i am a much better typer when i am able to see the keyboard.
