Blog post- holdiays

In the first week of the holidays I was sick and I absolutely hated it! I pretty much was in bed or lying down on the couch watching tv most of the week. Then on saturday it was my cousins birthday she was turning 16 so we had her super 16 party at our house. The low light about that was I had to stay inside and watch tv because I was still not feeling 100%. On sunday we ending up tidying down stairs most of the day and then I went to the movies with a couple of mates and watched Despicable Me 2.
On the 2nd week I basically went to town and hung with my friends all week except sunday On wednesday my highlight was when I saw an unusual thing and it was a old lady pushing a pram with a big dog in it and said it was her baby when I asked. About 10 minutes after I saw Lisa and Monica with Monica's nana so Sammy (my friend) and I decided to run across the road and see them and I nearly got ran over by a red car but surprisingly I didn't get hit.

My main events this term were cross country, science fair, and our Rimu House camp. My highlight this term would be playing paintball at camp on the first week it was really enjoyable and gave me heaps of memories. I have improved on my maths but not so much my reading for my maths I got a 4B. But I would of got a higher score if I didn't have to rush the last 10 question. I don't really like reading thats why I still need to improve on it. One of my lowlights are not going in the last netball tournament because the one before that was my team came 1st.

The whole Rimu House that paid $10 went to Bay court to watch the 2013 school production called the Most Triumphant Tale it was about 2 hours long. It was really good and funny the funniest bit was when Damian did a slow motion walk behind Liam and when Neitana came out and acted out as Jimmy Hendricks. One of my friends Daminan were one of the lead roles Phill. Most of Rimu House were in the production

Homework- 12 by 12 grid

A1. We have to complete a 12 by12 grid in under 3 minutes. The 12x12 grid is when your rule up a grid that is 12 squares by 12 squares and you have to write the numbers 1 to 12 along top and on the side of the grid. The 12x12 grid is a test on your times tables because you write in all of your times tables. Its called a 12 by12 grid because there are 12 Columns in the grid and you have to write down all the answers for each times table, e.g you go along the top row first answering all the questions like 1x1 then 2x1 and you go along also answering questions like, 9x 5 5x 6 and so on until you reach 12x12. When you finished you have to rase your hand and yell stop. We had 5 minutes to complete it and a couple of weeks after we tried to try and finish it under 4 minutes some people finished it under 3 minutes straight away but as you can see I completed it in 3 minutes and 0 seconds. We did this grid every day of the week before we started our proper maths tasks. I took me at least 3 weeks to finally complete it. 

I thought of this 12 by 12 grid a good activity for people that are not quite that good at times tables When I was doing this grid I found a few different good ways on how to do it fast and and make it right. I found that if you do your 1's timetables and then 2's and 3's and 9's because those are the ones that im really good.
