basketball

In term two our whole team learns basketball. We practice and play to learn more skills. Room eight’s maths class go to basketball every Monday. We practice in the hall. Have you played basketball before?

My favorite skill is pivot because you can defend yourself and you can pass it to anyone around you. I am not that good at shooting. I am really good at passing and catching the ball. As I was running I was huffing and puffing and well I was I was sub I could feel the sweat dribbling down my face.a basketball player is as tall as a baby giraffe.

I felt really good I hope next year I will be in a basketball team.My favorit part about basketball is that it is fun.

winter is here

Winter is here. In Auckland it is is freezing!!! I shiver as I breathe and I see a big puff of smoke. Here in Auckland we don't have snow in winter because it isn’t cold enough. Sometimes it hales when it rains and it is always slippery on the grass. There is  fog in the mornings sometimes. There are leafless trees, sometimes you have to put rain coats on and gumboots but most of the time we have to stay inside and do nothing.
