Art Challenge #1

So our art challenge has been fun for everyone. My whole family has done one. We have done : A burger left-handed, a City Scape with a never ending line and a normal beach scape. My most favourite one was the one where we did the normal beach because I had an idea from the start and it turned out really nice. My least favourite was the city scape because I had an idea but, I didn't know how to finish it. Here are some pictures...

Jedi Academy - Jeffrey Brown Book (01)

Summary
Jedi Academy is about a young boy named Roan. Roan wanted to go to Pilot Academy like his dad and brother. Unfortunately, Roan was rejected and wasn't allowed in the school and would have to stay on Tatooine in Plant School. Luckily, He got an offer from Jedi Academy and he decided to go there. Roan feels out of place but he makes friends very quickly. Roan thinks that he is going to fail everything and is destined for Plant School. Roan has troubles using the force with a D+ in the first semester but, in the last semester he completely knocks it out of the park with an A+. On the way back to Tatooine he realises that there is starfighter flight training in the next year and can't wait for  next year.

Favourite Part
My favourite part of the book is when he goes on a field trip to Kashyyyk and he is surprised by a tree because he had never seen one before.

Rating
****.5
There were some funny parts and the book was entertaining.

Weekly Story 1

2 Months ago, I got a call from LA, Mexico City and NYC that there had been an epidemic. I was told that I had to do something fast or the world would be engulfed by these new disease Yellow and Blue. Me (the medic) and the researcher were sent out to clear the world of these new diseases. We got an quick epidemic in Paris and infections caused a double outbreak in LA and Mexico City pushing yellow into South America and Oceania. We do a lot of cleaning and the researcher gives me all the knowledge I need to cure yellow. The researcher collect some more information and we cured black. Very soon after we eradicated it and now we had only 2 diseases to go.

           Around 1 month later, we got a new epidemic in Sydney but I cleared that pretty quick.  We found a lot of knowledge to cure and eradicate Blue. We were onto our last disease but we did not have any knowledge on this disease. After 5 days we got an epidemic in Buenos Aires and the researcher saved us from getting an outbreak. We quickly got an epidemic in Hong Kong but we were very close to curing red. We cured and we walked around and we eradicated everything. We were thanked from all over the world and we came back to Atlanta so that we can take a break from our jobs and I wrote this wonderful story about our adventure.

Welcome to The Big World of Little Adam Summer 2016 & Memories of Kerrisdle Elementary 2008-2016

Hello,
This is the first blog this summer. A few updates to this year's blog. Sunday's blog will contain stats about Daily Mile Daily Smile Club and Pandemic Club.  Monday will be about the past, Tuesday will be a small story. On Wednesday I will be doing one about a book that I have read. Thursday will be about the art club that we are doing. Friday I will be write about something that happened this week. Saturday will be an overall about the week. In the comments you can choose to write an dare. A dare is something that you guys want me to do. I'm not going to choose the dare if it is too dangerous. If there are more than one dare, I will pick one out randomly. I will post a video of me doing the dare on my Monday blogs.  Onto my first blog.


            Unfortunately, this year was my last at Kerrisdale elementary. My favourite memories at Kerrisdale were all the overnight field trips. My favourite one was the trip to the aquarium in grade 3. It was my favourite one because we arrived  at 8 when there was no one there. We explored where you normally don't get to explore and we stayed up until 12:35 AM the next morning. We woke up early and explored some more and had some breakfast. Then we got picked up at 8:00 and skipped school in the morning. Pls tell me if you want more about my past years at Kerrisdale.

Bike Adventure

Today Mom, Dana, Dad and I went down to kits (at 11:30 but reached kits at 12:15) to watch Ryan play wheelchair tennis. When we got there Ryan was winning and won in the end. I was very helpful. I went to Segal's to get some lunch. After we went with Sheri to Stanly Park by going around Vanier park and onto the burrard bridge and around the seawall to the park. We found the Lions Gate Bridge and went over top of it under it and on both sides(in Vancouver) and finally over it. Then we went to a Vietnamese for Dinner. We got spring rolls, Salad rolls, beef and noodles and chicken on a skewer. The only problem was that instead of salad rolls we got spicy chicken. Then we went to Ambleside to take a picture and then back over the bridge. Sheri went home when we reached Prospect point because it was getting late and me and Dana had ice cream. We biked home and arrived at 8:35. I had a bowl of noodles and then did my Daily Mile Daily Smile

Stay tuned
