Continuous Cricket, Fast & The Furtherest

Continuous Cricket is a modified game of cricket were you are put into 2 teams, the batters, and the
fielders.

Equipment:

• 2 wickets
• 1-2 bat/s
• 2 balls (incase you lose one)

Setting up:

How To Play:

The class is divided into half the class. We are put into 2 teams, the batters, and the fielders/bowlers.
One of the batters faces the bowler, the bowler will pitch the ball and the batter must hit the ball as far as
they can for the best results. The batter has 6 runs, you can either get them by hitting the ball 1-6 times.
To score the run you must hit the ball then run with the bat to the “base”. You can get out by either the
fielders catch the ball on the full or with with one hand they catch it with only one bounce, or the ball hits
your wicket. The batter must run each ball even if they don't make contact with the ball.

The fielders must switch turns being the bowler. The bowler must have one foot on the “bowlers base”
and underarm pitch. The bowler is the only person who can try to hit the wicket. The bowlers job is
to get the batter out by trying to hit the wicket.

How To Win:

To win you must get the most amount of points. The most amount of points on person can get is 6.

Commitment (CARR values)

Today in class we had to go into groups of 3 or 4 and work together to make a presentation about the CARR value we were given. I worked in a group with,Emily, Kahciar and Mikayla, we were given Commitment as our value.

Cyber smart reflection

My favourite thing we did this year was being able to use new tools to help me with my work and learning information that can help me in the future and that is useful to know.

Something I didn't enjoy doing was that I always had to blog my work.

Something that Miss Morgan was that she was clear about everything she taught us.

Something she could do better is that she could maybe be more enthusiastic about the topics. 

Term 1
1.We made digital posters on "How To Use Your Smarts To Protect Your Chromebook"
2.We learnt about why its important to have a safe password and common passwords that we shouldn't use.
3.We learnt about what keyboard passwords are most effective.
4.We learnt about images that we can use and who owns them.
5.We learnt about information about private and public information.
6.We learnt right place, right time.
7.We did a recap of what we have learnt.
8.We did coding 101, hands on and no devices.

Musical Theatre (my character)

In passion project we have been practising extremely hard on getting our musical, to make our role even more believable we got to come up with a backstory and information about our character.

Name:Alex
Age:20
Backstory:
My character Alex was living a normal life when her parents were on there way to pick her sister and her up from school, when they got in a car accident and sadly didn't make it. Alex and her sister were put in the orphanage for about 6 years until her sister got adopted and they left Alex at the orphanage and she stayed there for another 5 years, until she was 14. At the age of 14 she had enough and ran away, she lived on the streets until she was 18 then someone came and introduced her to the boxing world. She has been boxing ever since.

The Myth Of The Bike Of Mysteries.

The Myth Of The Bike Of Mysteries.

Wandering through the Forest Of Mysteries wandering why
its called that? When I came across a tree, but not just a
normal tree it had a bike growing inside of it. I have heard
the stories but I thought they were only myths. The only
story that caught my attention was that, the bike grew in
the tree on its own without help what i thought is maybe
this is all a lie to get people's attention.

What made this mystery so interesting?

Will we ever know?

You can believe what you want, but the story is still a
mystery.
