Batman in Arkham City part 3

The last chapter finished with the following :

Got it I will silently take down the two snipers dive bomb and take out as many as possible NOOO!!! That sucks! Two Face will shoot Catwoman!!! Ok got it I need to get Two Face down first drop a smoke bomb jump to the roof get the snipers take them down the defeat all the people on the ground save catwoman and leave. Thats a great plan lets see if it can be put into action.

Now :

All I can hear is the thugs laughing at me as I am lying on the ground with blood coming out of my mouth. I can not give up but if the thugs see me even do as much as flinch I will be shot down. I shall drop an extra large smoke pellet , so far so good and then grapple onto the roof awesome Nobody can see me so first I am going to silently take down the first sniper tip , toe , tip , toe , tip , toe. Batman has the guard by his neck and Click!!! He is down. Now I need to get to the other side of the roof to get the other sniper. Hmmm what do we do now thinks Batman. But at that moment Bame walked with a request of Batman. In these exact words he said I will destroy all the thugs in here if you help me. I will also help Catwoman and give back to you if you retrieve all titan give it to me. As you can see I am on my last limb. Batman said ok So Bane stomped on everyone and then got Catwoman for Batman. And two - face well he ran away knowing that two guns and a coin that has two heads on it aren't going to stop Bane.

So Catwoman and Batman set off to find the titan while Bane took care of the snipers.

Alfred come in I have sent for the suit Yes yes It should be there right now. Cool , Smash!!! Goes the suit onto the roof the building. Beep goes the button on the package the metal package opens up and inside Bruce see’s his technically advanced bat suit. Now Batman is suited up he is ready for action.

You boys do know that I just listened to your whole conversation and I can not let you out of here alive. Oh yeah well you don’t scare us oh yeah Says Batman and before you know it they are both gone. Alfred Cat woman's in peril I am going to save her she might need some help.

Reflection on the triathlon!

listen to ‘Triathlon ’ on Audioboo

Today at school we had a senior school triathlon. I was in the non competitive individual. I came fourth , the order of the events were swim , bike , run.

What I was pleased with was my biking. Because I overtook people to get myself in a better place to help going into the run. I really enjoyed the biking. Because it is my favourite part of the triathlon. Something I found hard was the swimming. Because going into this event I knew I couldn't swim well at all so it was lucky that I was good at the other things. Something I want to get better at is swimming. Because it one day could save my life!

Fotobabble on how to make a 2 by 3 by 4 square using 24 cubes!

Batman in Arkham City.

Welcome , welcome people to the grand opening of Arkham City. Anyone is now safe to live here. Hooray , Hooray go the crowds of Arkham. Just as Bruce Wayne was going the cut the rope for the reopening of Arkham City several cop cars surrounded him and out of one of the cars pop Hugo Strange. He mentioned Protocol 10 is falling into place. Bruce Wayne you are under arrest says a thug dressed in a cop suit. He is knocked out. The next morning when Bruce woke up he was in a strange looking room with small tvs all over. On the tvs Bruce saw Hugo talking to him he said “ I have a plan Bruce called Protocol 10. As you can see you are trapped. This is just the start of the Plan HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!” I am going to need to struggle to get off this chair and rock back and forth. Smash goes the chair! Then he kicks the door open and then he is off to the gladiator room.

All the thugs are lining up to get a piece of Bruce and since he is tied up you will think he is defenseless but you will be wrong. A kick for you and you Bruce mutters to himself and sooner on he had an easy path through the room. He pushes himself through the last door on the way out where a thug is threatening him with a knife but Bruce has different ideas. He kicks the knife on the ground stuns the thug puts the knife in the thugs hand and cuts the rope then easily knocks the thug with a kick. Now I need to use my sequencer to get a signal for my batsuit. Damn its not going to work I need to get much higher thats it the top of the G.C.P.D building. I need to go on this ledge got it then this ladder yes. Now I just need to jump from the ledge onto the other one Nooooooo!!!

Reflection about using all our strategies knowledge to work out problems.

Reflection about using all our strategies knowledge to work out problems.

Something I was pleased with was?

Getting four problems done in time!

I really enjoyed learning?

That  72.8ms is actually 7280 cm not 728 cms    

Something I found hard was?

Understanding question 5 because I did not understand that you didn’t just add 400 to 1600 but they do equal 2000. But I did realise when 400 and 1600 aerent 1600 apart but 1800 and 200 are and they equal 2000. I did end up getting the right answer. The question was : A laptop computer and it’s case costs $2000. The computer costs 1600 more than the case. How much did the case cost.       

Something I want to get better at?

Is using more than one way to solve a problem.

My favourite passage from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Record music with Vocaroo >>

This is my favourite passage from the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. It is in chapter 4 Turkish Delights.

The Avengers strike on Loki

The Avengers Strike on Loki!!!

Once There were the Avengers but not all of them only The Hulk, Captain America and Iron Man. They were working in their labs trying to find who the newest criminal is. When suddenly they got a call from Thor. He said, “I have found the criminal it's the usual. Captain America tells Iron man to to put it on speaker. Captain America says “where are we looking at destination wise Thor. 
“How about this says Thor I will come pick you up in my spacecraft and we will go from there?" 

So the Avengers set off on their task. When Thor is on his way to pick them up his ship crashes right on the destination of he who shall not be named! So it is a bit weird having your brother as your enemy but he has a job he has to do! So when Thor recovers from his crash he is ready for action.The guys come to meet Thor at the mountain. 

LOOK!!! yells Captain America. Its LOKI!!! “Okey Thor are you ready to take your brother in?" says Iron Man.
"Its alright he was adopted I told you last time we went after him remember," says Thor. 
“Let's go” Shouted Captain America. They are ready for a fight (obviously only if they need to.) They approach Locie as if they were the best ever you know like a slow motion walk! When they get to him they explain to him "we're taking you in like all the other villains that we have had to go through. If you don’t come with us you will have to live with the consequences."
"What are they?" says Locie. 
"Well we will either have to take you to our craft in the air or we will have to put in a glass bowl you will have to live in forever because it is unbreakable," says Captain America. Loki refuses to go so Thor throws his hammer straight at Locie and they chuck him on the spaceship. When they get back to the craft they chuck Loki in the tiger proof glass bowl and press the red button so he is locked in until further notice. 

So Locie lay there unconscious while The Avengers sit down and have a cup of tea. Later on they go to check on Loki, he appears to have escaped, says Captain America.  "I know why," explains Thor. "He had his demigod sword and plus there is a giant hole there." Thor would know all about that since they're related. Thor has a chip that can locate Loki no matter where he is. They go out on the same trip again hoping that this time they can transfer Loki into a normal prison.

Decimal Maths

Today at maths we had a special session for Miss Hill. Me ,Thea , Josh L, Lachlan , Hope , Kharn , Libby and Ethany Had a maths session about decimals. Jaedyn recorded us for Miss Hill.

There were two  questions they were 3.5 / 4 and 6 / 7.5.
Here is how Me and Josh L worked out our answers.

Question number 1. 
First we gave each person 3/4s of a cookie. then there was 1/4 of a cookie left on each one. So that leaves 0.750 left. Now we need to split that. We gave each person 0.125 to each person the they have 0.875.                   

Question number 2.  

First Josh and I gave everyone one cookie each. Then there was 1 and a half to work with. So we gave each person 0.250 of a cookie because you get four quarters of a whole and two and that covers for six people. That makes my answer 1.25.             

Question 1

Question 2.

production diary part 4 and reflection

This is the last piece of my production diary.

6/09/2012

Our last performance was tonight and my parents were watching. I was so nervous , I also got to do Seth’s part again because he wasn’t there. So I got to do more for my parents. I was especially nervous in front of my Sister because she would have mad fun of me if I did anything wrong. And I barely new my lines going into the sandpit ad doing the main part.

This a poster I made on a website Mr M sent out.

Reflection for the production. 

Something I was pleased with was?
Our ad getting lots of laughs.  

I really enjoyed learning?                 

To use my best expression when I am speaking on stage.

Something I found hard was?
Not getting nervous when I needed to speak.

Something I want to get better at?
Is putting my mask on better.     

Plane wreck part 3

Plane wreck part 3

I am finding it hard to get up I am stuck under heaps and heaps and heaps and heaps of pieces of metal. I am trying too to get all these pieces of metal off me but I just can’t.

I ask everyone if they could help me. They try to help but it just doesn’t work. They can’t get all the metal off me. Someone has called the cops because I can hear the sirens creeping closer. The cop cars pull up to check the scene out.

The cops slowly walk up to me And say , Kid we're taking you in. So they must have found what I had done , I tried to explain what had happened but they didn’t care.

I was going under no matter what. When we got to the station my parents were not pleased to see me. Then they asked me what made me do something so stupid. So I tell them that I had to otherwise I could have died because there were some alien things that were going to eat me. Of course they were not going to believe me I sounded like a maniac. Nobody will believe you when you say alien in your sentence (Not even your family.) They told me I don’t even know how to light a match , so I pulled out my packet of matches and let one off.

They were amazed , But they still didn’t believe me. What was I going to do with my self.

I accidentally signed up for choir

I accidentally signed up for choir

My name is Bradley Smith. I love doing chores it’s like my hobby. So when I look at the billboard and there is a poster saying chores please sign up I knew it was for me. I made it in but it was weird in order for me to have gotten in I had to sing. It was almost as if I had misread the poster. I think I may have possibly signed up for choir.

So the next day when the choir teacher said welcome to choir I knew what I had done wrong. So I try to explain to the teacher what had happened and then she said in her tone of voice “ I am getting the impression you do not want to be here” At the top of my voice I yell YESSSSSSSS THAT IS EXACTLY TRUE!!! So I got kicked out, thank god for that.

After all of that I got sent to the principal's office. That is totally unreasonable I mean that teacher was soooo stupid after I told her all of that the least she could of done is dismiss me. So I got detention in her class for the rest of the month.

For the next month I had to listen (uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!) Everyone was staring at me I was so embarrassed people where even mucking up their lines because they were just giggling and laughing at me. so they all got into deep trouble and were told not to look at me. I wasn’t even let out for lunch I had to watch all the other children playing  Soccer which was the worst experience of my life!!! Which  is my favourite sport.

It was a long rest of the month I can tell you that. But when it was finally over I was so happy that I could play Soccer with my mates. It was weird everyone knew my name as the guy who was in the  girls choir.

The end!!                                                                                           

Production diary part 3

3/09/2012

Tonight was our first performance. We had to be at school at 6:20 to get changed. It was a bit of a rush because Seth wasn’t there to do the main part in his ad so I put my hand up to do it , It was in my head that I didn’t know the lines but I really did. So when I filled in I felt a little bit nervous but when I did it I was fine.

4/09/2012

Today our practice was in front of the junior school. Our ad went perfectly fine but the little kids were talking so nobody really heard.

4/09/2012

Tonight we had a performance in front some other parents. It all went pretty well but tonight I didn’t get to fill in for Seth because he was here.

5/09/2012

Tonight we had another performance in front of some more parents and other people. Our ad was pretty good but I think it was not our best. The production was all round good but I was so tired and nearly fell asleep.

these photos are from our ad.

         

Usain Bolt

Usain Bolt Usain Bolt Is still the fastest Man Alive. He has some amazing achievements like today Winning the 100 metre men's sprint final this year at the London 2012 Olympics. Four Olympic Gold Medals and he is an amazing sprinter. He is currently holding the world record of 9.58 seconds that is amazing and nearly bet it this year with a whopping 9.63 seconds. The Jamaican has a close rival Yohan Blake another Jamaican at 9.75 but he just doesn’t compare to the Lighting Bolt.  Here is the link to the race video.
