Story-Fever

In the story it was about a girl who said she wasn't scared of ghosts but deep down i think she was. She was going on a field trip with her school when she suddenly fell sick she didn't tell her parents about it because she still wanted to go but she felt even worse on the bus. They were going to a old sanatorium and she was worried about sleeping in a bed where people have died in. But she wanted to milk a cow since it was turned into a farm since the sanatorium closed. She sat on a log while people were milking the cow and the teacher saw she was sick and took her back to the cabins where she slept until she woke up to a pale white girl in a white robe at the end of the bed. She  thought she was dreaming until the ghost came closer the ghost was talking to her until it was the next day when the girls mum picked her up from camp to take her home because of her fever.

For our follow up we had to make inferences like basing it off text and pictures we had to guess what we thought was going to happen here is my inferences

What could i have done better in my inferences

My Follow up

Communication

Communication
At the fair my group and I had good communication. During the fair when our shifts would change the next person was already at the station.When I was rostered on twice my group decided to shut down the game until the next person arrived.we made decisions by communicating with each other and respecting each others opinions.
To talk and explain helped everyone know what to do and made everything run smoothly.

How do you think your communication was at the fair?

Creativity

creativity is something we all have inside us so if your making art and you dont think you have creative ideas just know that you might fail sometimes but we all have creative ideas because one half of our brain is our imagination and in stories just let your imagination run wild so never think you dont have creative ideas because you do we all do.

Sport Rotations

So for the past 4 weeks we have been playing different kinds of sports every Thursday. There are 4 different rotations korfball which is like a mix of netball and basketball. Soft ball which is like cricket but not really you have to hit a ball off a tee and the fielders have gloves on and there are 3 bases you have to run past to get home and get points like baseball. We had cricket which I don't think I need to tell you the rules of cricket you probably all know. And for the last sport we had to throw little ball and complete challenges with them like if you hit the middle of the circle you get 50 points the name of the game was lawn bowls we did 8 challenges I think and my team got like 310 points but the other teams got more points then us but we came like 4th out of I don't know how many.

Have you heard of lawn bowls before?
