Swimming Sports

Rimu house walked down to Memorial Pools last Friday to do swimming sports.
The races I swam in where.. 25m free, 25m Breaststroke, doggie Paddle, dolphin Dive, under water swim and class relay.
The highlight of my day was coming first in 25m Free 25 Backstroke and our class one Class relay.
But the best part of all was seeing my nana down there supporting me.
My mother also brought my friend and I subway with a cookie she also gave me a peanut slab and more...My when I looked up in one of my races I saw my nana on the side yelling at me that made me smile as I inhaled water and lost the race.
At the end of the event we where aloud to have a fun swim and play pool games with our friends!
Friday was a great day but I was really tired at the end.

The Tent that cried.

-My reflection.

What I have learnt. 
I have learnt what evaporation is and how it works!
I have learnt what condensation is and how it forms and what it does!
I have learnt how to do a keynote presentation with some new tools!

-Benefits of working with my partner.

My partner Kate is great we finished really fast and worked really hard.
We were a little lost on the keynote presentation but it was great because Miss Mills helped us!

-Difficulty that I overcame.

Didn't know how to do alpha and all that other keynote stuff until Miss Mills taught me.
