Rock’s Home School
Term 3 Week 1
Monday 17 July 2023
Today is the first day of school, I started off by doing the problem solving in my mental math book, with my favourite lesson being where you have to figure out what the missing number is in the colunm method, where there is the answer, but we have to write what the missing number is from the top rows, and I figured out that the number was 5 because there was a 9 and the answer on the bottom from the text book is a 4, so I knew what to do, and then I put the 4 there from the 14 that got added up with the 9 and 5, so then I carried the one.
I then read my Alex Rider book for 15 minutes, it was about Alex Rider going into a mine, because his Uncle was investigating on the storm breaker, so he is investigating the storm breaker too, in a place called Sayle Enterprises, when his Uncle Ian Rider was in the mine before his funeral at the start of the book, Alex also went in the mine because Ian did, because it is part of the storm breaker. (for where I am up to in the book)
My dad and I went upstairs to practise my DJ skills on mixing my house set, only using my ears, I did well sometimes and I was off beat sometimes to. I finished the day off by going to my dance classes with my break dance teacher called Andre, we learnt some knee dips which is where you put your hand on your head and squat and put your knees out, and also another one of the dance moves is where you put your hand on your head again and kick your legs out with your other hand on the floor.

Today I went to the class room the second I got up to finish school early to play more.
I started by writing right hand S’s and Left-hand S’s.
I then did mental math on the Friday review and did alot better then yesterday, and today was a good day of math because the questions were hard and easy.
I then went to have breakfast while reading my Alex rider book, continuing on the mine part.
I then did a page of science, grouping animals in species and kinds, like mammals, reptiles, vertebrates and invertebrates. A vertebrate is an animal with a backbone and invertebrates are animals without backbones, and at the end there were boxes, with kinds of animals but the animals where above and I had to write the right ones in the right boxes in order to finish.
I also leant that the general rule is that AN is to be used before a vowel, and A is to be used before a consanent.
I finished the day off by updating my website.

Today I started the day off by reading my Alex Rider for fifteen minutes, about when he goes into the mine to the end, where you have to swim out of the mine into the ocean.
I then got my dad, and we did a udemy lesson together on how to draw your own song, just by getting a drum kit and clicking on spaces after you drag the drum kit from all the drum kits and drop onto your midi track, we made the beat that udemy wants you to make, we learnt how to use velocity which is making the sound of things bigger and smaler.
I then went through the samples of The Wizard Of OZ sounds, and downloaded them, so I can make a cool remix of The Wizard Of OZ, called The Whitch Of OZ.
I then went to the home schooling lessons for climbing and finally did a V4, four times, which is hard for kid.
I finished the day off by going bounce, for the 6 o clock lessons, usally my cousin Eva does the classes, but was not there.
