Run, Jump, Throw

Hello everyone welcome to my blog today I am going to be sharing my task called Run, Jump and Throw and I did this task with my learning buddy Nick. Okay you are probably wondering what this task is all about. Well we had to watch a video of athletes training and we had to write down what kind of skills that they did and if they showed sportsmanship, all the letters in PRIDE and other good attitudes. We then asked some questions that popped into our heads.

My Holiday favorites

One of my holiday favorites was seeing Born To Dance with my friend Sophia, my sister Caroline and my sisters friend Brooke. I ordered some medium popcorn and a coke and it was really good. My favorite part of the movie was of course the dancing. Everyone in the movie was a really good dancer and I mean really good.

My other holiday favorite was going to Georgia's birthday party. The first thing we did was open the presents and have a little snack before we went out. Then we went to Laser force and I came 5th in my first game and second in my second game. Then we went to the park and had a little play around and that was really fun. Then we went back to Georgia's house and made some pizza and then had some cake and that was the end of Georgia's party. It was delicious and I had an awesome time.

I turn around and in front of my eyes I see the most amazing scene. The glimmering blue sea shines from the sun light into my eyes. The turquoise sky glides above the earth as far as I can see. As I move my feet into the nice silky smooth sand, I can see some wavy green trees in the distance. The palm tree blows in the wind like a tornado. Spooky shadows in the water has been created by the fluffy clouds. A perfect place for a holiday.
