Mirror Image

 Hello guys! Today I will be talking about the story "Mirror Image", I will be describing what was similar to the people that was in that story, what was different and why the Mirror Image was the suitable title. Let's get started!

In the story the similar thing was they wanted to stop the apartheid and have fairness to the black people on South Africa so there wouldn't be superior races on America. The thing that was different in the story was Zodwa wanted the Springbok to be beaten while Meggie wanted to stop the apartheid. Why Mirror Image is a suitable title is because it talks about both of the wanting peace which suits the Mirror Image on the title because when you look on your mirror it does the movement you do but for Zodwa and Meggie it's their feelings like they are the same person doing the same movement but it's about their wanting.

I hope you guys like my post! If you want to see the story here it is:

Why Is Being "Cybersmart" Important To Our Kura And Our Learning

 Hello Guys! Today I am going to show you why being Cybersmart Important!

Being Cybersmart is important because if you don't know how devices works then you wouldn't know how to hold it properly protect it properly or use it properly and if you know how to use it then you know how to fix it easily with just a glance and you'd know how most or all of the shortcuts work and knowing what they do! Plus knowing how devices work you can know what your extensions do! It helps on your learning if you know how all of the buttons work so you wouldn't need to have a problem about how those buttons work. If you don't know how most of the buttons work it's ok you can ask someone that is an expert and they can help you with everything you need to know about your device. I hope you guys like my post goodbye!

Things About Music Class

 In Music Class I have enjoyed playing the instruments I never got to play before and learning the notes which I didn't know the name of. I have learnt genres that were popular and new, the notes for the instruments and Music I haven't heard of before. My favourite genres are Rock, Rap, Alternative and Indie because they sound amazing than other genres I know and sounds like, my favourite song is Heatwaves because it has nice music and chorus and my favourite band is Maroon 5 because they have cool sounds and their songs are good even if I said that Heatwaves was my favourite music and it isn't sung by Maroon 5 does not mean it's not my favourite band that sang my favourite song! I enjoy playing piano because it has some interesting facts like it's from a two different families and those families are called Percussion and String which is a cool fact I didn't know about the piano until my teacher told me. 

I hope you guys like my post! Goodbye!

Why You Should Play Hockey

Hockey is a good game to play because playing it is like soccer like there’s a midfielder, defender, goalie and striker/attacker. Plus hockey could be hard to learn but once you know how it works you can be a good player and win a goal(depends) for your team! It feels good when you win but losing is good too which means your progressing and progressing until you can win against the team that beat you in hockey. Even if hockey is boring it's probably too easy or too hard you just gotta try your best even if you lose a lot of times because losing means your getting better and your improving but if you just keep winning it means you don't progress. So try playing with people that are challenging from the teams you have beaten and play hockey with them because those people could just be enough to defeat you and you can keep progressing again so you can be much much better than before and improve much faster rather than playing with the same team you keep beating.

It’s easy to play but you have to remember that you can’t use the back of your stick to hit the ball. You can only hit the ball at the front side of you stick. It’s easy to play hockey if you know how to play properly but if you don’t know how to play it’s okay because you can learn from your team. Here is how to play hockey(from what I think): So you got the Defender, Goalie, Midfielder, Left Striker, Right Striker and Middle Striker you play paper scissors rock between the Middle Strikers and whoever wins get the ball you can only move when the enemy passes the ball or if you pass the ball the enemy moves. The defender can only go to the half of the field to the goalie and the midfielder can go anywhere(I think so?). The striker can go anywhere too but not on the goalie's semicircle. Strikers/Midfielder can only goal by being inside the semicircle not outside it the same as how the enemy does too!

Playing hockey is fun because you can learn easily by asking one of your team(s) or coach how to play and they can explain how you play it so you can know how play it and how the game works. Hockey looks easy but it isn't because you just started playing hockey you need to know how the game works so it would make more sense to you or it wouldn't make sense for you. If hockey is too hard it's not because you're bad at that sport it just means your getting better at it and never give up until you win and making yourself proud because you've beaten that team wit your team using teamwork because without teamwork it would be hard for you and your team to cooperate and you won't be friends with them.

Hockey is fun because it’s safe unless you got hit in the head. Like I said it’s like playing soccer but with a stick because it’s how the game works plus you don’t need your kicking skills for hockey because you just need your hitting skills and moving the ball skills. Even without those skills it’s just fun that you need because you don’t need to be great at it because it’s just your fun is what’s keeping you motivated to love that sport. Playing hockey can make you have friends because your team could be different people. No matter how bad or good you are it's just hockey there's nothing special on it but what makes it special is you trying your best and cooperating with your team and it would be easier for you guys to win if you cooperate with the people your team with.

I hope you guys like my post! Make sure you comment on what's your favourite sport and what's good about it. Goodbye!
