Jump Roping

Hi everyone!

Today I jump roped 36 times!  I found a really cool jump roping video.

On Monday I scraped my knee on the ground and the day after that I had my flex try outs. When the try outs were almost over I hit my knee on the ground again! I am doing try outs today too. I think my knee will be fine though.


I found a Cashflow game online if you want to play with me. Tell me the name of your game.  You can email me if you want to play with me.

Beowulf the hero

Hi!
This is what i learned today;

I learned that the Celts were British warriors and the story of Beowulf the hero.  This is how it goes....
Once there was a warrior named Beowulf.  He was very strong.  Sometimes the other warriors would go to fight the giant, Grendel.  But every time they went to see Grendel he would eat them all up when they were sleeping.  Then Beowulf went to fight Grendel with his men.  Then Grendel  tried to eat one of Beowulf men and Beowulf twisted Grendel's arm and the arm fell off!  Grendel ran out of the room and drowned in a lake.

I learned how to indent the code on karel. First you indent the top code then the code insid that code and then the code inside that code and you keep doing that until you don't have any code left. The last code should be indented the most.

While loops

Hi!
Today I learned while loops on Karel. A while loops makes the thing you typed go over and over again and makes the stuff stop when something you typed is true. A while loops look like this:

 while (frontIsClear( )){
            putBall( );
            move( );
}

This week i am doing Boxcar Rumble and A Day at the Carnival for piano.

I learned on How Things Work an object that is in motion stays in motion and if you push against a skater and I push against the same skater at equal force the skater will not go anywhere.

In the Story of the World I learned that when people first made pyramids they were white. And the Romans called the Visigoths, Vandals, Huns, Goths and Ostrogoths barbarians.

If statements, Inertia

Hi!
Today I learned if statements in Karel.  If statements are thing like if you have the ball move two times. Or else if you don't have the ball turn left. This is what an if statement and looks like:


if (haveBall) {
    move();
    move();
}
else{
    turnLeft();
}

I learned science on How Things Work. I learned that a thing that is still stays still unless you push it. It is called Inertia. If you put some stuff on the table with a cloth on the table and you put the cloth off the things will stay in the same spot they have always been.

I did spelling on page 64 in Why Johnny Can't Read.

Karel

Hi!

This morning I did  programming with Karel on codeHS.com. Karel is a dog in programming. You can do stuff to him. I learned comments. There are two kinds of comments. There's a one line comments and several line comments. In the beginning on the one line comments there are two slashes like this //. And in the beginning of the several line comments there is a slash multiplication star like this /*. And at the end like this*/.

The Smithpopper's Adventure


     This story starts around the Smithpopper's house in Cherrydale Mississippi . The Smithpopper's are:  Annie the big sister, Max the big brother, Maya the little sister, Tom the dad and Susie the mom.They were planing to go to Atlanta with the Bellowhere's and the Kurtainbob's.  There teacher, Mr.Grgg is  funny he falls down a lot.

When they go to the airport Mr.Grgg comes too because he goes to the store next to it. Then he got bananas at the store and he ate one and threw it and walked on it and slipped into the Smithpopper's luggage. While Mr.Grgg was loaded in the back, the Smithpopper's were flying to Atlanta Georgia newly opened "Animal Palace Zoo"and staying at a hotel for 5 days.

When they came to the zoo a guide showed them to the dolphin pool that was 10 feet deep and had glass walls. The guide said that they could swim with the dolphins but Maya, Arya and Max couldn't swim so well so only Annie, Tom, Susie, Bob, Mary, Beatrice, Jon, Emily, and Robert went. When they went in the pool the guide told them the dolphins will come out and put there noses on your feet and push you around and they did.

Mr.Grgg saw the lock was open a little bit so he  knocked it and it opened so  he followed the people into the zoo but he accidentally fell into the dolphin pool but the lifeguard saved him.

The Smithpopper's were surprised Mr.Grgg was there but Maya was gone! Everybody ran to find her. Finally Susie and tom found her in the tall lions cage. They called the guy with the ladder and he climbed up and got her.Then everybody went home and lived happily ever after!

The End
