Why we should or should not pick where we sit

Why we should or should not pick where we sit 

I recommend that we can’t pick where we sit.

Why do you ask? Let me tell you.

Sometimes you just want to work with your friends but you don't get your work done. Why? Because you talk about your holidays, weekend and what you are going to eat for tea.

We are at school to learn not hangout with friends. That is why we have morning tea. You can hangout with friends and eat but not in class.  

When all of us get older and we need money you need to go to work. You need to learn math, writing, spelling, reading and all the other subjects. You need to learn. 

If you sit with your friends you will say to yourself when you are older “I made the worst decisions when I was younger, I should've listened to my family and teacher”.

I think you can sit by yourself or someone you want to talk to. Thank you for reading why we should or should not pick where we sit.

why we should have phones at school

Have you ever needed your phone and you didn’t have it? You know how much of a problem it is. That is why we need to have our cell phones at school. You can check your bank because we are all getting EFTPOS cards at 11, 12, and 13. The teacher doesn't have to look after our phone and we can be responsible for ourselves and our own things. 

You can call your parents and you don’t have to go to the office and you just need to tell your teacher. If you have a phone and no ipad or chromebook you can use your phone and not the teacher or the school’s chromebook. You can check your bank so you know if you can buy something at the tuck shop. This can be really good so if you forgot  your lunch or a friend did so you can buy them lunch if you want. 

We can hand or phone into the office and then you can get it out at morning tea and lunch. We are 11, 12 and 13 we can look after our things. We can be trusted with knives, why can’t we be trusted with our phones? Some girls and boys have TikTok but we don’t have data and maybe neither wifi.  We are getting to the point that we do things by ourselves. We manage ourselves so if the teacher wants us to manage ourselves they should let us have our phone. 

This is why we should have a phone at school because you might not have food you are sick and you don’t have to go to the ones you  just tell your teacher.

discus grafts

Last week my P.E class learnt howto throw a discus and here is two grafts of the scores.

I think people throw more better when they were standing up because you get more power



I gave myself a rating out of one to 5 and I think i got a 5 because it is my best work because i did get  distracted and I gave myself a 5 for presentation and effort.

shot put graft

Last week my P.E class did skills to now how to threw a shot put. We throw the shot put on our knees. standing and one knee up.

how to throw a shot put you put the shot put in your hand and then you put the shot put in close to your next. then you push the ball now throw.
