Cricket - Energy \ Beans

Crack! I hit the ball with all of my power, It roles to the boundary line. I  block a ball that seems to come down to me at 100KM per hour. My bat hits it with a crack, I look at the new chery on my bat.

I can just taste the victory salivating  on my tongue.  I get ready to face the 6th ball of the over, I get ready to crack the ball in half. I hit  the ball like a pro, it travels to the long boundary A fielder chasing after it, I ran 2 runs before it hits the boundary.  The 13 overs are up I head off for drinks break.

I  strode back onto the pitch ready to start the 14th over.  

I block the first ball. It rolls straight back to the bowler. He walks back to his marker for his run up. He runs in at full speed, I hit it to a fielder  He thinks it might be his chance to get me out the, good thing is that he dropped it.  

“Last over” the umpire shouts out. I get ready to bash the ball, I hit it, oh no it’s going to hit my other  batsman's foot I yell out “move out of the way” he quickly steps to the side and it speeds to the boundary. I have reached my thirty runs, I have to retire.

The rest of my team-mates make a cricket bat guard of honour for me to walk through. I hold my head high. My team congratulates me and gives me high fives.

Millau Viaduct

                Millau viaduct

Millau Viaduct is the most amazing bridge in the world. The Millau Viaduct is located in southern France. It was designed by a French bridge engineer Michel Virlogeux. He worked closely with British architect Norman Foster.

The bridge was 245 metres long and 2.5 KM. They built the bridge on a 3 percent slope to make the drivers feel more comfortable. At the highest point of the bridge is 343 that is 23 metres taller than the Eiffel Tower.

The bridge opened on the 14 December 2004. I the first year it carried 4,430,000 vehicles. Many more than it had been estimated. The bridge is guaranteed to remain in good condition for 120 years.

By Joshua Heibner

My favourite part of the bridge would be when you look down when you are at the middle.

The cricket ball

The cricket ball By Joshua Heibner

I’ve always been lucky

For Christmas 2013

When Santa gave me my

first cricket test ball.

It was so shiny and clean

that it would shine at

night and it had not been

dropped since I opened it that

night.

It is white with a light green

seme and it has gray, black

and silver words.

Each day I polish it

to keep it gleaming clean

I hope one day it will be

used to hit a 6.

Key words about me

Ordinary Day

One ordinary day at 7:00 AM I wake up in my ordinary room in my ordinary bed I eat my ordinary breakfast, I brush my ordinary teeth and pack my ordinary bag. I walk across the ordinary street to my ordinary school. I walk past the ordinary class rooms to my ordinary class. I say hello to my ordinary teacher and head out of my ordinary class.

I walk onto the ordinary court to play some ordinary touch rugby I score an ordinary try. The ordinary bell rings and the ordinary kids go to their ordinary class. My ordinary name gets called in the ordinary role. I go to my ordinary computer to make an ordinary comment. I do my ordinary maths and the ordinary orange card gets handed out by my ordinary teacher. I get my ordinary brainfood and get my ordinary computer out and do my ordinary writing. But something extraordinary happened, one of my ordinary best friends walked into our ordinary class. My ordinary teacher tells us that he will be joining our ordinary class for the rest of the ordinary year. I felt over excited and let out a big extraordinary “yes” amongst  my ordinary classmates.

I go to get my ordinary morning tea. I sit beside ordinary Henry and ordinary Sam and have an ordinary chat. The ordinary bell rings and I go out to have my ordinary play. I walk around the ordinary school and the ordinary bell rings. I head back to my ordinary class and sit down on my ordinary seat. I get the ordinary instructions from my ordinary teacher and head on to my ordinary reading. I read my ordinary book and fill in the ordinary worksheet.
The ordinary time flies by and the ordinary lunch bell rings. I head out onto the ordinary field to play some ordinary touch rugby. I score lots of ordinary tries then the ordinary bell rings again and Henry,
Sam and I head back to our ordinary class. My ordinary teacher reads our ordinary class book to our ordinary ears. We head to the end of our ordinary day with an ordinary game of splash!!!

Thanks for joining me with my ordinary day/extraordinary day :)

It has got words from my reflection




Here is my reflection



I was so pleased with how everyone did their part.

I really enjoyed learning how to work more with my class   

I would like to have a go at being the giant

I loved how crighton played his part well

I would like to get better at speaking louder.
