Hi ππ
Today for a reaserch project I decided to do it on a person who did amazing things , I chose Nadia Comaneci , A gymnast . Here is Her story .
Nadia Comaneci
" You must figure out your own destination and the best route to get there no one else knows the way. " - Nadia Comaneci
When Nadia was only 6 years old the only thing she wanted to was cartwheels and and in the time she lived in cartwheels were quite a big deal in Romania (where she was from) but she did not know that . Then one day she was playing around in her schoolyard when a famous gymnast trainer Bela Karolyi spotted her , and thought that if he trained her good she would be amazing . But training was hard , when any of the kid he was training made a mistake he would hit and beat them . They all trained 6 houra a day , 7 days a week . He really wanted his gymnasts to be beautiful and perfect . And Nadia was perfect ... quite literally . When she was 14 she scored a perfect 10 in the Olympic Games . No gymnast had ever got a perfect score before . But she got so famous that the roman leade was getting worried that she would overshadow him so he did not let her leave the country only for competing . So Nadia decided to escape . In the morning she walked for 6 whole hours though mud and more . she moved to the U.S had a family and started a business . She loved gymnastics and worked lots to promote it just the way she liked to ... as a free woman
I have learnt all of this reading Good Night Stories For Rebel Girls 2 which is writen by Francesca Cavallo & Elena Favilli . It is a good book that has alot of good women in it that have done amazing things I hope one day I can be in one of these books . I chose this Woman becasue I love gymnasics and hope one day I can be a professional gymnast. I can do cartwheels , one handed cartwheels , handstands , one handed handstands , and round offs .
I am a Year 7 student in the Uru MΔnuka Cluster. This is a place where I will share my learning. Please note that some of it will not be complete, it will be my first drafts. Remember to be positive, thoughtful and helpful when you leave me a comment.

Ruru sea challenge π’
Hi ππ
I finally finshed my sea challenge on the Ruru blog! The hardest part was the google drawing I did of the coral reef eco system. The plankton was VERY hard they did not want to go where I wanted them to . Reseaching coral reefs has made me want to visit one . My favourite animal is the turtle. Here is my slide .

Party Hat And Soft Play Dough π₯³
Hiππ
For Elise's birthday we were asked to make party hats heres mine
I used paper for the cone and glue to stick it so it stayed like that . I did not use glue for the pom-pom and the sequin flowers, I used sparkly pipe cleaners to fasten the sequin flowers and for the pom-pom I used the same pipe cleaners , I got the end of the pipe cleaner and stuck it into the pom-pom then got the other end of it and stuck it down a hole at the top.
Happy birthday Elise π₯³
Soft Play Dough
Today me and zoey made soft play dough , This is the recipe that we used. Link .
It was really easy we only needed two ingredients , corn flour and conditioner. It is SO SOFT .
