Week 3 Term 1 Reflection

During week 3 I was in the danish rounders team and we had our semi-final game on Tuesday and we won so now we are in the finals with room 13. I learnt that in danish rounders you cant get out running to the first base unless the ball gets caught. We also did an Astle writing test last week and editing. For the astle writing Mrs Crowe came up with a random subject "Is sport more important than music" or "Is music more important than sport". I choose sport is more important because I beleive sport keeps you more healthy then listening  or playing music, I also have some more reasons in the writing. Also we had WIMS swimming trials and times for the finals in a couple weeks. During this we got to choose what ever swimming events we desire and swim them, these races were timed for the finals helded in a couple weeks and also the best times in each swimming event for each year group (yr 7 girls, yr 7 boys, yr 8 girls and yr 8 boys), are elected to go to WIMS swimming which is in a few weeks time. We also did our visual poster about "me". In this task we had to do past, present and future columns, we had to add photos or images to describe what we wanted in the future, what we have now and what we used to have or add photos in the columns etc.
