My Pool is the Best Persuasive

 

 

I came up with my idea by thinking of something I love and have than I planed with boxes and bullets then I did a practice write. I liked writing because I got to say and explain why I liked my pool. For me the hardest part was the organazation because I just wrote and I barely thought about it. I liked the adobe recording and pictures a lot because I needed to do it, it was fun and I got to share about what I liked about my pool.

Partner Book Club Reflection

My favorite part of being in a book club is that I had a lot of books that I liked and that I was able to share my thoughts.
The most challenging part of being in a book club is that I needed to write down my thoughts, that is because I wanted to talk about what I thought.
I think that my favorite book that we read was Ellray Jakes is not a Chicken because it was the most descriptive book that we read. My least favorite book that I read was The Sloppy Slipup. I think that because there was no concept and it was really boring.
I think that I did good with my jots and that I did pretty good with punctuation, capitalization and organization. I don’t think I have a connection with any of my characters in any of my books.
I think that the most important part of having a partner in a book club is that you get to listen to them and revise yourself and tell your partner suggestions and compliments and corrections.
I learned that I love to listen to other people’s points of view so I can understand them and what they are trying to tell me in their way, and it inspires me to do that for my book partner.

Expert Book: The Piano

I came up with my idea by writing down my hobbies, sports, collections, and the holidays I celebrate. I thought that I should Write something I love like the piano. I started playing the piano in the last year of preschool, so I have been doing it for a long time. I love the piano so much. I picked one of my hobbies. The process of doing it was hard but the work paid off. So first I did the ideas then I did the hand then I wrote it in my journal then I did it on slides! The most difficult part for me was probably the organization and the paragraphs because I don’t really like to organize the book. I like to go straight on and continue the book. I probably needed the most help with the pictures because it was really hard to put them in at the perfect spot. In the end I was really happy with my book and it was really fun.

This is my expert book.


Thank you for reading!

Maglev Reflection

We had the track covered with 4 strip magnets. And the car had 4 disk magnets on the bottom in each corner. The original plan did not work because it was not balanced. We took away the 2 middle strip magnets and added those 2 strip magnets to the side of the track . We added one on each side. We also took away the disk magnets on the bottom of the car, and made them strip magnets on the sides. 

 

There were 4 strip magnets on the track there were 2 stacked up on each side that repelled the car so it could levitate because we pushed through the problem of the car not being balenced.  So if there was a magnet on the bottom there would be a magnet over it. It is fun , and takes more than 1 try. And yes, creating was my favorite part.It was really fun to work in a group.

 

The Great Closer

It was the perfect day to play baseball. It was hot, but shady. 

I was catching in the second to last inning. 2 strikes, outside corner strike 3. I still remember the speed on that pitch. 

Next inning I was pitching. There was sweat running down my hair. I was warming up in foul territory. My arm had hurt from last game. My team was chanting, “Austin Austin!” Once I got to the mound it sounded like they were screaming!

I felt confident. I threw a pitch it blazed right past the batter.

I threw another pitch, this time the batter ripped the ball down the third base line. The third baseman threw the ball to first, 1 out. I sighed in relief. I got into stance and threw 3 balls and two strikes. Then I threw an outside corner strike 3. I was one out away. My heart pounded and I threw a pitch. The batter hit a chopper to me. I looked at home.  All I saw was dirt I looked at first. I saw a runner sprinting. I threw the ball to first …

The ump yelled, “Out!” My friends yelled and tackled me. Soon there was a dog pile. I was so happy. 

We had Scoop Shop. At Scoop Shop my friend Chase came over to me and said, “Nice win Austin.” “Thanks.” I replied. 

And that is the story of one of my greatest games I ever pitched, I thought. That was one of the luckiest games I have ever played. My head wasn’t hanging down on my neck it was the exact opposite of that.I was grinning. I said, “I guess I really am a great closer.”
