Week 6 is finally here! Lot's have happened this week and here is some of it. On Monday it was a normal school day.

He tries to audition for Romeo because he knows that Romeo gets to kiss Juliet who is being acted by his crush. I a going to audition for the part, Smithy. Because I know that I am good at acting and I am good at singing. On Tuesday, it was our boating session. It was loads of fun and I learned lots.

It was quite fun. On Wednesday, we did some more work on our explanation writing. It is about the wonders of the natural world, the ancient world, the modern world, and the medieval world.
