Muskan Devta - An Inspiration

Muskan Devta is a 15 year old who has a health problem called Partial Hemiplegia.  Partial Hemiplegia is when half of you body does not function well.  Muskan Devta is an inspiration to me.

Muskan Devta is a inspiration to me because when she was young, she was a loner which means she had no friends.  When she had no friends, she went to the library and read books.  When she was 9 years old, she published her first book.  When she told us that, I thought about if I do the same thing as her, maybe I can publish my first book.  When she talked to us, I thought she would sound a bit weird but when she spoke, she spoke very good.  I think she could speak properly because of reading books.

When Muskan Devta went to a intermediate school, she began to get friends.  When she was in intermediate, she was a collen writer.  That means she wrote the news for the radio announcers. When Muskan Devta was young, she already knew how to speak 7 different languages.  Thats pretty impressive to me.  When Muskan Devta wrote her 2 books, she raised funds for Starship Hospital.

Muskan Devta is an inspiration to me because even though she had no friends when she was young, she carried with her life.  She told us to not be afraid, and achieve what you want to become.  That is why, she is an inspiration to me.

Brainie

This game is called Brainie.  In this game you have to look t the number on the side and add the numbers to get the number.  For example, if the number on the side is 14, I could go 7 + 7 but I don't have any sevens so I could go 5 + 5 = 10 + 6 - 2 = 14.  If I do that more of the numbers will go away and I will have a higher score.  If you want to play this game, here is the link: http://www.coolmath-games.com/0-brainie/index.html

Rounding and Compensating

This week in maths,we are learning to round and compensate numbers.  Rounding and compensating numbers is hard and easy.  For example, 45 + 28 = ? you have to plus 2 to 28 so you 30 because the nearest number to 28 is 30.  45 +30 = 75.  Then you have to take away 2 from 75 so its 75 - 2 = 73.  I need to learn this because if something like this pops up in college, I can remember what I did in primary school.  This is the worksheet we were learning how to round and compensate numbers:

How to make a cup of tea

                                                How To Make A Cup Of Tea

Tea is a type of drink you make at home.  Tea comes in many different flavours.  Tea was first invented by a chinese emperor called Shen Nung.  People make tea differently from everyone else.  

The ingredients people need to make tea are hot boiling water, a tea bag (any flavour), milk and sugar.  People also need utensils so the utensils are just a teaspoon, a cup and a plate if needed.  Those are the only ingredients and utensils needed.  

To make tea, people need to follow these steps.  First you have to boil water to get hot water.  When the hot water is done, get a tea bag and put it into a cup (get plate to if needed).  Then you have to pour the hot water into the cup and wait for the tea bag to brew.  If people like tea strong leave the tea bag in for longer or if people like tea a bit weak then leave tea bag in for a little bit.  When the tea has brewed, take the tea bag out and put 2 or 1 teaspoon in the cup.  Finally, pour one drop of milk into the cup and stir.  Now you can enjoy your tea.

Many different people like and make tea differently.  Some people like tea strong, and some like tea weak.  People also make tea differently on how people like tea.
