Optimist yachting 4

Today we were kayaking with room 20 and the wind was pretty strong to kayak in, I have created an ptimist yachting and kayaking reflection. I've also created a taxedo of my reflection. Please comment. :)

Reflection for Yachting/Kayaking:Day 4

Something I was pleased with was how nobody tipped their kayaks over and fall into the water because if they did tip their kayaks they would need help to get land.
I really enjoyed learning how to push my kayak into the water because I would get stuck on land and get back into the water.

Something I found hard was controlling the main sheet because it would sometimes come off and we almost sank our yacht!
Something that made me think was which way to paddle on the kayak because I would have to paddle right to go left and left to go right.
Something I want to get better at is kayaking. (What can I do about it?) Paddle strong and rest my legs and arms when tired.

Optimist Yachting 3

Here is my  reflection of day 3 and I have created a lego yacht with 3 people in it, the one with the black hood is me, the one in the green cap is Elijah and the one with black hair is Shivom. I hope you like it! Please comment. :)

Reflection for Yachting/Kayaking reflection: Day 3
Something I was pleased with was that people participated and didn’t lose their paddles in kayaking because if they didn’t participate they WILL lose their paddle.
I really enjoyed learning how to steer the yacht with the rudder because it was fun to steer and I knew how to tack.


Something I found hard was kayaking in a double because I would get a sore back and my legs would get tired.
Something that made me think was which way to turn when it was my turn to do the rudder because I would need to know to tack, or turn left or right, or, just make the rudder go straight.

Something I want to get better at is controlling the main sheet.(What can I do about it?) Let someone else do the main sheet?

Optimist yachting 2

Here is my second reflection of optimist yachting and kayaking and it was a bit windy,  but at least I had fun. I created a Taxedo of my reflection on Tagxedo - Creator. Hope you enjoy my reflection and taxedo! Please comment. :)

Reflection for Yachting/Kayaking:Day 2
Something I was pleased with was how nobody fell out of their yacht in the windy wind because if they did they will get cold and will be unable to kayak.
I really enjoyed learning how to go under the bridge without snapping the end of the paddle because if I didn’t learn it I would have broken the paddle!

Something I found hard was balancing the boat because the wind was tipping the boat and making it go all crazy and the boat went fast when I loosened the main sheet.
Something that made me think was kayaking because I would need to know which way to left and right backwards and forwards.
Something I want to get better at is paddling faster. (What can I do about it?)  Put my back into it?

Optimist Yachting

Here is my Optimist Yachting and kayaking reflection of day 1 and I also created a Go Animate video, I had fun riding the yacht and kayaking. Please comment. :)

Reflection for Yachting/Kayaking: Day 1
Something I was pleased with was how people didn’t sink their boats because if they did it would cost maybe $100.                       
I really enjoyed learning how to capsize and steer the boat while someone moves the main sheet. I really enjoyed steering the yacht because it was fun and amazing, I really liked capsizing because it was scary and cool.


Something I found hard was controlling the main sheet because I would have to loosen or tighten the rope so we wouldn't crash into the people who were kayaking.
Something that made me think was watching were the sail/main sheet was heading because it would hit my head and I did not want to end up unconscious.

Something I want to get better at is controlling the sail. (What can I do about it?) Maybe when I need to go fast tighten the rope and when I need to slow down loosen the rope?

The Minuscule Dragon

Here is my dragon story about a dragon and I put compound sentences, complex and simple sentences. This story has WALT or WALA sentences in it and they are compound, complex and simple sentences. I hope you have a great time reading my story of The Minuscule Dragon.
         The Minuscule Dragon


The minuscule dragon flew into the room from the window and layed on my fingers.He small dragon set flight from the tips of my fingers. He bursts out lava like fire that goes right through a tree! The dragon lights up with fire, I think his name must be Torch. All of a sudden Torch turned red and stayed that way. I looked up “what do tiny dragons eat” and the computer had some links to look at. I clicked onto ‘WIKIPEDIA’ (or Wiki) and it came up with heaps of things. It came up with meat, fish, vegetables, fruit and people!! I gave Torch some of my uncles hand that died last year. Torch didn’t like the hand, I was lucky that he didn't like the hand. I asked mum if I could have some meat, she asked me why.I told her it was for a project for my blog. Mum left and I gave Torch the 50 centimeter meat. Torch ate it in 10 seconds, he must have been hungry. I walked down to stairs to get more food. When I got back upstairs Torch was 2x bigger!! I gave him some more meat and he grew 4x bigger. Then he changed color again but is wasn’t his body it was his wings! The red wings turned Dark but he wasn’t turning evil or something.He flew out of the room leaving a hole in the wall and a 1 metre plop of poo on the road. Torch blue green toxic fire going through buildings and making hole through the concrete wall. The city was in a gigantic mess, Torch flew back to the house. When Torch got closer I saw a huge angry mom of people who had their town destroyed. I jumped on Torches back and he flew into the past to his family. There were different kinds of dragons, blue and orange dragons too. There was another dragon and he was all black. He looked kinda evil but he was just Torch’s dad making copies of himself. The weirdest dragon I ever saw was a Cockatrice. I also saw an army of people on horses.
The army had a catapult with a burning rock aiming at one of the dragons. The dragon quickly covered his scaly body with his wing that made the rock rebound back to the catapult. The soldiers retreated and I left for home. I said goodbye to Torch and he gave me a slight burn on the palm of my hand. “Ouch” I said. There was a picture of a dragon skull on it. “Woah” I said as Torch was flying away.
The End!
