Introduction : I am writing about Action World at Henderson , I will try to make more than  6 paragraphs in this trip .


Pulling over to the right as the bus tries to stop it opens the door as we jumped out we all rushed out to see how it looks like i thought it was going to be even better than the video on website but it look’s like not what i expected,  unless it’s better than nothing.


So we sat down in our group room 15 , 19 , 20 , 21 and 22 there was a man named Jerry the first thing he said was “ eye’s on me “ then as usually we say “eye’s on you ” than he started to say the rules and he chose what activity what you shall do today we started of with the Jump N Slide Activity I  started first for the slide it was looked fun than the others .


When we started to go on our lines first we had to read the rules i volunteered to read it as i’d began to read i kind of struggled reading it out then our supervisor said that i was the first one to go on the Jump N Slide I started with the Slide i used something so i can slide our supervisor said “ put the then green on the bottom and the yellow part to me”.


as’d i ran as fast with it i did what he said then i looked down it looked like that i was going to fall then i said “ i am a man “ then i went down but luckily  I landed on my back instead of landing on my face then i went off the bouncy castle the girls said “ was it  cool the others said was it cool Brent than I replied “ Yea it was cool , it was Awesome.


Then Tyla-Marie had the next turn she went very fast than me the others said the same thing except me i said “ it was scarey ah “Tyla Replied “ It looked like you're about to go straight down ” I replied “yea “ in a cheerful way next was , well i very do not know who went after Tyla but yea let’s get back to the story well every single of us had like 3 or 4 turns we swapped activities then we went to rock climbing .


On Rock Climbing we did the same thing as the others did was TO READ THE INSTRUCTIONS !!! first we had to climb to like 1 meter away then we star fish of and land on our backs safely asd every single one of us had a turn we had to climb higher , lower or just anywhere but just two people went while the others just waited and waited for their next turn after the last person almost reached to the top we went Jungle swings .


The Jungle swings looked easier than it looks but when i had a turn man i wanted to fall down but i tried to stay on like a professional but i only went to two bars and fell but unless i tried my best and the others except Doorman he was not allowed to jump over the sissy but he never listen to miss king he swang like about 10 times  then he fell .


Then it was rocky’s turn he was the last one i think he made it like about two to three swings im sure he laughed when he fell done Jeremy blew the whistle as we ran to the crazy ladder we stood in a line as the teacher said the instructions first person went and fell down the 2 nd person went and fell down  then the 3rd person me i went i climbed but fell .


I tried , and tried and tried but didn’t get use to it but Wyatt did miss king betted anthony if he could reach to the top she would give a billion dollars to him because she is rich and has too much money .


we had 2 to 3 turns on the crazy ladder then it was lunch time we ate our lunches when jeremy started to pump up the jousting so we can play on it i went on it i versed Mr Katly , Texas and Mele i lost against Mr Katly and Mele and won against Texas Jeremy said “If you make it to the fourth swing you are good to do javiling ” you have to do two swings and let go .

it was time for us to leave we went into the bus and sat down as normal and talk but i wanted to sleep so i tried to get comfortable and sleep but i couldn’t sleep with all those noises

Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela Introduction: An important event of the 1990’s was Nelson Mandela’s release from prison on Robben Island in South Africa where he was serving a life sentence. An international campaign had lobbied for his release, which was granted in 1990. After becoming ANC President, Mandela led negotiations with President F.W.de Klerk to abolish apartheid and establish multiracial elections in 1994, in which he led the ANC to victory. Nelson Mandela became the first black president of South Africa in 1994, serving until 1999. A symbol of global peacemaking, he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 , Nelson Mandela was born on July the 18 , 1918 When Mandela was 9 years old, his father died of lung disease, causing his life to change dramatically. He was adopted by Chief Jongintaba Dalindyebo, the acting regent of the Theme people a gesture done as a favor to Mandela's father, who, years earlier, had recommended Jongintaba be made chief. Mandela subsequently left the carefree life he knew in Qunu, fearing that he would never see his village again. He traveled by motor car to Mqhekezweni, the provincial capital of Thembuland, to the chief's royal residence. In 1939, Mandela enrolled at the University College of Fort Hare, the only residential center of higher learning for blacks in South Africa at the time. Fort Hare was considered Africa's equivalent of the University of Oxford or Harvard University, drawing scholars from all parts of sub-Saharan Africa. In his first year at the university, Mandela took the required courses, but focused on Roman Dutch law to prepare for a career in civil service as an interpreter or clear regarding as the best profession that a black man could obtain at the time. The End This is all I know about Nelson Mandela

Chromebook Refection

Having a Chromebook is cool because you use it for work Like
-Blogging
-Writing
-Maths
-Inquiring
-Literacy
-Searching stuff like about the history from the 19’s
-And more
 I think having a Chromebook is cool it is better than using your pencil and paper but sometimes i forget to use capital letters but i will get use to it soon . I have learnt many things this year because of my friends helping me on my chromebook my teacher helping me with my learning and my family , making me learn more manners at school and at home or other placers but except on friday the 12 of december because i had a fight , and it was not a good fight because that was not me i wanted to be a role model of the point england way i didn’t try hard enough to be a prefect or a house captain but i will be a role model in my heart and my soul. check out point england's website.

Question 5


How many triangles can you count? 17

Question 6


Turn this triangle around 180⁰ by on







Question 7


The name of the game is Petals Around the Rose, and that name is significant. Newcomers to the game can be told that much. They can also be told that every answer is zero or an even number. They can also be told the answer for every throw of the dice that are used in the game. And that's all the information they get.
The person who has the dice and knows the game, rolls five dice and remarks almost instantly on the answer. For example: in Roll #1 the answer is two.
Roll #1.     
"The answer is what?" says the new player.
"Two."
"On that roll?"
"Yes."
"Would it still be two if I moved the dice without turning any of them over, just rearranging the pattern?"
"I can tell you only three things: the name of the game, the fact that the answer is always even, and the answer for any particular throw. In this case the answer is two."
"So that's how it is. What am I supposed to do?"
"You're supposed to tell me the answer before I tell you. I'll give you all the time you want, but don't tell me your theory, just the answer. If you figure it out, you don't want to give the idea away to these other jokers around you. Make them work for the answers, too. If you get the answer right on six successive rolls, I'll take that as prima facie evidence that you understand the game."
"OK, roll again."
Roll #2.     
"I give up. What's the answer?"
"The answer is eight."
"Roll again."
Roll #3.     
The answer is fourteen.
Roll #4.     
The answer is zero.
Roll #5.     
The answer is four.
Roll #6.     
The answer is... 4

Question 8

How many goats do Anne and Michael have? 1 each
