Duolingo!!! Spanish

Welcome back blog viewers who read this blog. This blog post I will be talking about Duolingo. I will be talking about what I like about it, if I have found anything difficult, has it helped me and do I have any tips about remembering words.

Things I like about Duolingo is that it's a fun way to learn a language. It is also cool when it says a certain percentage to show how much Spanish you can speak fluently.

Some things I have found difficult is remembering certain words, but after a while I slowly remember. Also trying to remember every day, but since I have it on my phone I can remember a bit more easily.  

It has definitely helped me because it repeats words but in different sentences and contexts. 

I only have one tip to remember words. It is to try and memorize the word and keep it locked in your brain.

That's my blog post for this week,
GOODBYE!!!

Tech 2016!!!

I'm back with another blog post. This weeks blog post is about Technology (Tech). We do Tech every Monday afternoon from 1:00 to about 2:15.

Tech is held at Mount Cook school which is a very big school. We catch the bus the to Tech, we have two buses one for year 8's and one for the Year 7's.

There are five different activities which are Movie making, Cooking, Wood Work, Sewing and Electronics. At the moment I am doing Wood work and I am making a Battleship completely made from wood.

In the next few sessions I will still be making parts so I can put the whole thing together at the end. Also filing and sanding while take up a lot of time.

Some classes I'm looking forward to would be would be Cooking and movie Making cause I really enjoyed them last year and I am really excited  to do them this year.

I'm Back!!! New School Year 2016!!!

This year of 2016 has started off with a Bang and has started at a new level compared to previous years. This blog post I will be talking about people I have gotten to know, what I have enjoyed so far and what I have found challenging. Also how well I have used my time for work and some ideas that would help make the year a touch better.

Some people I have gotten to know better would be Dhyanesh and Hugo. I have gotten to know DJ (Dhyanesh)  a bit better cause he sits next to me on my desk. Also he is basically the only year 8 friend I have known a while. Dhyanesh is a great person cause we can work well together and get along well while having a great time. Hugo is Oliver's brother and last year I was good friends with Oliver last year so this year I'm friends with Hugo. Hugo and I get along well cause Oliver told Hugo a lot about what I'm like. 

Things I have enjoyed so far would be first day at tech which I am doing wood work. Also I have enjoyed dodge-ball on Friday, which is pretty obvious. The task system isn't such an enemy this year with some tasks that I enjoy. I have also been able to tasks done because I don't have to much activities on at night so I can work for a bit in the afternoon.

I haven't found to much stuff challenging cause there has only been a little amount of tasks but I will find it harder later in the year. With quite a few school trips at the start of the year I have some days out of school which made me go a bit harder but it wasn't to hard though.

Time management and organisation skills have come in helpful for the first few weeks. When year 7 I didn't have much skill in time management but it has definitely helped for year 8. Having the task system helps me do activities outside of school with much more ease.

I don't have many ideas at the moment but some ideas might come to mind later on in the year.

Good bye to many wonderful people come back for another post.
