Our Talk with a Really Famous Man!

Guess what we did on Friday after school at 3 o'clock? Well we talked to a famous man. He is the Nike Shoe designer. Anybody know who that is? Well that is D'Wayne Edwards! Cool isn't it. We had a really good opportunity to talk to him. Unfortunately we didn't get to talk by a mic, we had to write it in a text box and send it like a comment. We asked a lot of questions which were so helpful to us because it helped me and the extension group on designing our shoe. It was great.

He told us about some of his pair of shoes and some off the oldest ones. He even designed shoes for Michael Jordan. D'Wayne said to us that in his closet he has 400 or more pairs of shoes that is designed by him!. That would be incredible. He also told us some of the things that made him believe that he could be a lead shoe designer. One of the people who made him believe that was no other person than his......MUM. She was the greatest to him and said to him that he could do it. He even opened a school which just made people learn how to draw. It was called Pensole. He said that he named it Pensole because the pen was how he learned to draw and the sole is the thing he did on the shoe. I hope we will get to do many things with D'wayne and by the end of the year we will know how to do at least 2-5 shoes.

Rugby for Rosie, My Upcoming Podcast

Hi my name is Mubasshira and I am going to tell you about the ending of the book Rugby for Rosie. If you want to know what happens in the book Rugby for Rosie than you will have to go to the KPE blog (A shortcut is go to my blog and click under the KPE Podcaster badge where it says 'Click here to check out my podcast') and find it there. So here it is.

After when Rosie, Mandy Mega Women and Mrs Ace had finished talking they had reached their classroom, where all the other girls had been sitting. First when Mrs Ace said that Mandy Mega Women was the women next to her, nobody believed her so then Mandy Mega Women took off her coat. Suddenly a head popped up and said it is true she is the real Mandy Mega Women. After a while when everyone in the class was quiet for moment 1 of the girls just stood up and said "But you wear mini skits and you are not like that". Mandy Mega Women said that everyone has a unique personality, everyone has a inside of them and a outside personality just like on screen and off screen. She took herself as a example. Mandy Mega Women said " I wear mini skirts on screen but off screen I am very dirty, a little like Rosie". Rosie giggled.

A while later Mandy Mega Women had persuaded all the girls to play rugby. Rosie was so happy and do you know what the other girls did? Well they cheered for Rosie and the Fly Hards (Their Teams Name). The next day was the other tournament and the other girls promised Rosie they will turn up. Well do you think the girls will turn up or do you think they will deceive her?

Well if you want to know more then you will have to read the book for yourself. So this was Mubasshira telling you about the book Rugby For Rosie by Frances Adlam. Kaki te ano.

I have been working so hard to finish this movie and finally I have got it on my blog. In this movie some of the things that will be happening will be that some men are going to be putting some Kumara into the ground they had just plowed. I hope you enjoy my movie and will show you how people lived before. Thank You

My First Presentation!!

"Oh no!" I felt so nervous. It was 7:45 am on the 22nd of February 2010 and guess what? It was my first ever presentation. My legs were shaking and I was so nervous. Their were 8 presenters and I was the last person to give my speech. These were the presenters Angela, Selena, Ala, Aiden, Toreka, Erene, Seini-Mino (Technician) and me. I had learnt it of by heart but I still got a few mistakes.

In my presentation I was talking about Google Docs which is a application on Google. I really liked it it was a really nice.

I will come back and tell you more but for now I really felt nervous. I am really going to work on speaking loudly because I think lots of people thought that I really needed to speak slowly. Thank you.

Prize Giving Night

"The year 5 podcasting award goes to... Mubasshira and Selena!" Mr Burt announced. I was so excited, I was going to get a prize and also a award! I was at the Pt England Prize Giving which was on Thursday 10th of December 2009. The whole school was there. As I walked the red carpet, inside me I said to myself that I was a lucky person.

As I walked onto the stage to get my prize Mr Burt said to the audience "These 2 kids are very lucky because they have got a Ipod!" I gasped. I was desperate to open it. As soon as I got off the stage Mrs Tele'a was just sitting down there. She gave me a necklace full of chocolates. Yum! We quickly sat down after we gave all of prizes to the teacher.

"The Year 5 people presents an item song" you might already know who said that. That was Mr Burt. All of the year 5 people went on the stage and sang "Tonight's the night lets live it up I got my money..." The name of the song was "I Gotta Feeling". The moves were awesome. The year 5 teachers had made it up. As soon as we got off the stage Mr Burt started to say the year 6 awards and extra things. It took us so long. I couldn't wait to go home...

"Yay!" I had reached home and was all ready to open up my Ipod. COOL!!! I was so happy that day. As soon as I had my Ipod by me I got it and connected it into my laptop and it had started charging. After about an hour it had finished charging, with the help of my sister we looked at the instructions and started putting some songs on to it. I was extremely happy.
