The Three Jamaicans In The 200m Race


“WOW,” there were some of the fastest runners in the countries I have ever seen in my life. With among the Olympic competitors in the 200m race, There was three Jamaica's, Usain Bolt, Yohan Blake and the third runner Warren Weir.

Warren Weir, was the third competitor from the Jamaican team that ran in the 200m race.He   won Bronze medal. He is a 22 year old man who would like to be just like Usain and Yohan because they are the fastest runners and he always dreams to be like them.

In the London Olympics, in the 200m race there was a 22 year old Jamaican who came second place who won the silver to try and be the best runner there ever was.I think all he wanted to do was to make his country proud and happy.

Man, Usain Bolt,sure is the fastest man that I have ever seen run in 2012 in the 200m race.In the Olympics,he also took first place out of all the Jamaicans in the whole world and even set the world record that is one of the best times there is for him and his fellow comrades.

When they were about to start the race,straight away I knew that the first place winner was going to be the greatest runner,Usain Bolt because of all the matches that he’s won over the past 4 years and on ever since he started the running event at the Olympics.

The Olympic Rings



The five basic colours blue, black, red, yellow, and green are boring just like the  five basic shapes that look just like circles, however the countries that these colours symbolize is a different story.Which are the Africa's, America's, Asia's, Australia, and last but not least the Europe.

"What is the reason for the rings interlocking. You say? well let me tell you about it."  When the rings are locked together it’s a sign that means that the countries join in one place and battle it all out in the Olympics in order to win the medals Gold, Silver, or Bronze for their country.

Why are the Olympic rings circles.? I always seem to ask myself that question, until now when I went and searched all over the net and found out that the reason why they are the shapes of circles is because five continents join their hands together and play against each other.

In 1914 Baron Pierre De Coubertin was the founder and designer of the rings that represent the Olympics today, he was also the one who discovered the countries that 
the rings symbolize in the Olympics and he did the same thing with the 20th anniversary.

I think the reason for the choosing of those colours was because in 1984 there was a guy called Robert Barney who discovered that in ancient times they used circles and the colours that we use now.

Weekends



"Cool” we all said once we heard that we were going to have a BBQ and a party to celebrate my uncles farewell because he was going to Australia to live, it was fun when we had all our family coming to my house with all of my cousins for the weekend until the day they left for Melbourne.

Later on that day we started to hear heaps of cars coming down the driveway and the roads. Our garage would fill up until some people had to drink outside of the place, while our uncles were preparing the food and the table.

“Oh that sucks" we said, because a few of my aunties and uncles had to go home and make sure that their baby was alright with their babysitters. But it was still fun when they came over and had the party with all of us.

As everyone went home I thought about the fun things we did together and hoped that we could do this again with all our family soon.

Archery



Archery is a skill of good eyesight, used for hunting and combat in modern times, however, its main use is to use it for worthiness.

The reason why I chose archery as the sport to write about was because I like the bows and how you can try to hit the target just like video games but in real life, it was very fun to do archery for the first time in my entire life at camp for the year sevens only.

The thing I really really love about that sport event in the olympics is that you are allowed to shoot them at different targets to win the tournament, and also because I like watching those super heroes on television like Hawk Eye, and Green Arrow.

The last time I did archery was the time at camp when rock up came to our school and told us all about these events just like we were at a Carnival, and at a theme park full of the students from our school and teachers who came to supervise us as our Captaine.

What I enjoy about archery is that we get to have fun and wild from everyone screaming and yelling from all those wonderful events.

I wish they will come again to the school this year.

On the holidays...

The last 2 weeks were the best days of my life,because we got a game called Rubik's race and a rugby ball. We were able to play these games before the BBQ we had on Sunday to celebrate my little cousins 6th Birthday.

When we played the Rubik’s race it would get more difficult until I lost the game against my family and visitors related to my nana and papa that played with us. Some of their children came over, so it was much better when we had a game of rugby outside.

Later that day it was time to have dinner,”Man that was nice” the best thing that went with the BBQ was the minace (looks like potatoe salad). That was one of the coolest homemade dinners I have ever had. We all enjoyed the last day we had together and spent the last moments with a game of touch in the back of my uncle’s house in the schoolyard.



This was a very enjoyable day with family and friends.

Term3 Week1


“Wow” I said to myself because of all the great things happening today. When we started our new term with a new topic called “go for gold”  then straight away I knew it would have something to do with the olympics.

Out of all the olympic sports in the world. My favourite ones would probably be Swimming and Javelin because I like sports that can cool me down and that is much more challenging.

The reason why I chose swimming and javelin as my top sports was that I’m a pretty good at throwing the spear the furthest and, always come in second place in swimming every time.

The goals I try to strive for is to come 1st in swimming and beat my own record in javelin, and to see if I can beat other swimming competitors fastest time in the whole school. So to fulfill my goal I must practice, practice, practice to make perfect and to achieve my goal.

Picasso

Picasso
HI I am from Room 18, and I will be telling you all about one artist that stands out of all the rest from my point of view, first of all the  artists was the one that had a good art hand and good at doing different kinds of perspectives and ways of his own to paint others and objects that makes everything interesting, is Picasso.

The reason why I chose the artist Picasso was because of all the talents and hard effort that he puts into his artwork with all his kinds of imaginary pictures and how he likes to mix up stuff in the background and  when he draws people's faces then ending up mixing them up in all different styles, then turns into a weird looking paintings.

What I enjoyed about Picasso’s work is when he starts on his background and then turns it into broken glass, but the thing I liked the most is with his creative idea how he makes some changes and shapes to the people he draws.
