Canadians Win Gold

Canadians win gold at the Vancouver winter games. Women' s hockey Canada vs U.S.A. Canada won the game with a score of 2-0.


I only watched the first period and Canadians showed U.S.A up.

The goals were scored like 2 or 3 minutes apart from each other.

There are 21 girls that play on the Canadian team.

Transition,, Olympics - X Games

Now, as most as you know, we are doing a lot of Olympic things in school. However the Olympics are coming to an end. We are getting into skateboarding season. Currently, we are 114 days from Go Skateboarding Day. Go Skateboarding Day is an unofficial annual holiday conceived by the International Association of Skateboard Companies (IASC) to promote skateboarding. It is usually marked on June 21. Also, we are 151 days from the X-Games. The X-Games is a commercial annual sports event, controlled and arranged by US sports broadcaster ESPN, which focuses on extreme action sports. The inaugural X Games was held in the summer of 1995 in Rhode Island. Personally, I like skateboarding because it's just a thrill when you land a trick. I love it.

WE'RE THE WINNERS

AN AMAZING GAME LAST NIGHT WHICH WAS 7-3 FOR CANADA, WHOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super shoulders and gold and silver

Super shoulders was a challenge! My arms were burning and when i put them down, it wrenched my shoulders. It felt like i needed to keep them up! I am excited for the next challenge we need to do. The sports quiz was fun too!

Newspapers

Lately in E.L.A. class we have been learning: memorizing words eg. cutline (a.k.a. caption), city editor, columnist and we've also read and summarized and much more. Today we were to make up a caption to a picture from a recent newspaper. We got a picture and a little piece of paper. The paper we folded in half and on one side we made a possible caption for the picture. On the other side we put a humor caption. Can you make a caption (humor or not) for this picture?

5...is the dream still alive?

Long way to go 8O, but I am guessing that a group of you may be watching the Canada - Russia match and might be posting afterwards.  Last I checked, score was 7-3 Canada.

As CP says (shouts) "Go Canada Go!"

Good luck. 

No Homework! Science Fair

I think the Science Fair was pretty cool and there were a lot of good projects. I like the idea that we have no homework but we have to get 18 posts instead.

For the class Olympics I agree with Cody that we should get to know what the challenge is first before we decide who has to go in it. Go Athens Go!

As for the Olympics on T.V. I hope Canada wins against Russia. GO CANADA!

NO HOMEWORK

I think that the Science Fair was amazing and the talking through the tin cans were cool because you could hear the person on the other sde talking through the cans and I never thought that would work but I guess that I was wrong.

In the first peroid Canada has scored 4 goals against Russia and they have 1!!


GO SPARTA GO

Sparta is good at the physical activities but not the knowledge thing for the Class Oylimpics!!

Don't Like Homework

Ya I don't really watch the olympics on TV and I don't really care to but I still like it if we get a gold medal. Our olympic thing is pretty fun but we should have been able to know what the individual activities were before we had to choose who went in them. Go Thebes Go!!! We can win and everyone knows that we are the team to whatch out for. They are right!

Science Fair

Well went to the Science Fair it was pretty cool I liked the paper airplane one and the fossil one... And it turns out that the cookies were for the judges not pointing any fingers here... HMM HMM HMM HnHaHtMhMaMnM COUGH christian COUGH oh got to drink some water... me... oh where did that come from... Ahh funny.

Joannie Rochette

After the womens figure skating short program, Joannie Rochette is in third place. She had a really good and clean program. Kim Yu-Na in first with 78.50, Mao Asada in second with 73.78 and Joannie Rochette in third with71.36. Joannie's mother passed away 2 days before she had to skate but she was strong and did her performance. She said "Mamam" as she tearfully finished her routine which earned her a season's best. Go Joannie!
