Statistics Unit
We have finished the Statistics unit, I enjoyed it. The graph that I liked the most was the pie graph. It had the use of the protractor. I liked learning the measurement of the angles, for me it was easy. I found out that there is a difference between bar graphs and histograms. My friend got it wrong on the first time. He thought that the bar graph was the histogram, and so he got it wrong. I also learned about averages, mean, mode range and median. I memorised it because you can easily get it wrong. In the end I learned a lot about it.

E.O.T.C Week
E.O.T.C week finished and it was fun. Not one day did it rain, everyday was either sunny or cloudy. Mostly sunny.
First was Walk up a mountain which was excercise, but I didn't quite like it. Next was sports at the gym, games was what we actually did. Now that was enjoyable. Then came the film festival, it was boring except for the first part which was interesting. But the rest sadly was really boring. Next we traveled all over the city visiting the space observatory, a museum and a gallery. Now that was amazing. We even got to record videos to share in the end with an Ipad. Finally came another art gallery but we got to swim in the pool afterwards.
The week has given me some new experiences that made me learn a whole bunch of things. It was not only educational but it was awesome with excitement everywhere we go. While we did this year 8's were at camp and had their fun too!

E.O.T.C (education outside the classroom)
While year 8's are at camp year 7's will have a week of trips to various places. Firstly we tramp up Mt. Kaukau, a mountain not far from school. Then activities at a recreation centre, probably sports. Film Festival is next but I have no idea what it is, maybe like video and camera stuff. Capital E connections is like museums, history and more educational stuff. Finally we visit an art museum and swim in one of my favourite swimming pools
Learning German
Languages is one of my favourite subjects. It not only let's you learn the language but sometimes learn the whole culture. We learned the basics like hello and bye, but i don't know if we learn deeper into the language. We have been given a work sheet to work on and we have been given a task to drawa title page.
Writing an Origin Story
Writing an origin story is not that hard for me. I'm actually great at it, I even got an award for it! I'm not going to tell you about it all, but I'll tell the highlights. I combined it from alot of fantastic books I've read and made it my own. He's a baby sold to a bad society and made an experiments. He was a failure and put down for adoption. He was adopted by a rich couple and soon began to learn his unexpected powers secretly. His parents are murdered and robbed and soon is put into the orphanage. In university he thinks of an idea to save the world from crime, by doing that he's avenging his parents with out murdering. I've written alot of good stories and for a minute I wanted to become a writer. But I'm going to be an electronic engineer.
Superhero Comic Art
In class we are suppose to make a three panel comic. It has to be coloured in and have alot of shading.We have to make a superhero, that means alot of detail. My superhero, Psychromancer, is a psychic and necromancer. Psychic is like teleporting, telekinesis, future sight and all sorts of stuff. Necromancer is death, shadows and scary stuff. I'll try to upload a picture if I can get some help from a classmate. Now back to the art, I'm going pretty well but I've ruined 3 pages and I am on my fourth.
