Quick write draft

Quick write
There was money everywhere and I was shocked. “Hey guys is this real money?” I shouted. “Yes” replied a stranger. I grabbed a $50 note ran to rebel sports and bought my favourite pair of Nikes. I saw someone drive a bulldozer and collect a lot of money. I ran and jumped in the drivers seat. I yelled that’s my money. The man hopped out. “Yah this is all my money” I yelled. I put all that money in my bank account. I took out 3,000 dollars and spent most of it on clothes. I was soo hungry. I ran to the fish and chips shop.
“Lady can I have large fries?” I asked
“Sure $2.50 please” She demanded.

I paid her and took the bag. As I took a bite I could taste the crisp and the salt. As I swallowed it the taste was delicious.

For writing we had to do a quick write. After that we had to edit it using DRAFT Delete, Rearrange, Add, Fix, Talk. I did this because I want to edit my writing properly. I learnt how to edit my writing.

Presenting at assembly

This was my first time presenting up on stage. I was very nervous and I had butterfly's in my stomach. When I did my practice I thinking about how I would be at assembly. I was up on stage with Victoria. When it was almost my turn to speak I was nervous but what made me more nervous was when Victoria was tapping her legs silently and I could feel the vibration. At the end I was proud of myself for presenting on stage. Thanks to Mrs Anderson because she gave me the confidence to present up on stage.

Trust activity

LS2 did an activity on trusting each other. one of them is to get a in a circle. The next step was to sit. If everyone is sitting on each other's laps that means were doing it right. The other was really fun. We has to partner up with someone we don't trust. The next step was to close our eyes and our partner had to guide us from the junior playground to LS2 back to the Junior playground. I had a lot of fun doing the trust activity.

Maths subtraction maths problem

The is my maths problem I have to work out. This question is asking you what is 381 - 127. This is how I work it out. 
Firstly 381 - 100 = 281
Secondly 281 - 20 = 261
Thirdly 261 - 1 = 260
260 - 6 = 254
The answer is 254. On the third step the reason why I subtracted 1 instead of 7 is because it's more easier to subtract from a tidy number.
