Little house on the prairie

 My family love the TV series made in 1974 called "Little House On The Prairie" It is based on a girl called Laura. we have brought every season up to seven. They are very different to the books but they are such a great family movie.

Most of it is directed by Micheal Landon who plays Pa, Karen Grassle as Ma, Mellissa Sue Anderson as Mary, Melissa Gilbert as Laura, and Sideny Greenbush as Carrie.

We are in the middle of season seven, so far it has all been great.

Dust storm

On Wednesday we had a dust storm come through from the bottom of NSW. It was horrible, I had to stay inside due to my asthma. It was really weird because everything look orange and the sun and it's light was blue, it all just looked weird. But in away it was quite fun.

These are pictures from Sydney.


As you can see from the pictures it was pretty bad. Although it wasn't as bad where we live as it was in Sydney. We have already had another dust storm since Wednesday.

Hockey

I play hokey for a winter sport along with my twin sister. We both play on the same team. We play on a girls only team. We play with a public school. The girls on the team are really nice.

I have been captain twice and so has my twin sister. I have only scored one goal in the whole season, though my twin sister has scored three. I play a half and my twin sister either plays a wing or a inner.

I play field hockey. This season is my first hockey season and from what I have heard I am doing pretty well. This week is the semi finals, and if we win we go straight through to the grand final. Our team is second on the ladder. The team we are versing are on top of the ladder.

Hockey, I find, is a very fast game, each half is twenty-five minutes and we get about a four minute brake.

If we make it to the grand final I will let you all know.

Narnia

My family love the books of Narnia by C.S Lewis. We also love the movies. We've seen "The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe" and  "Prince Caspian".

I love both the movies. They were both done by Disney, but when they finished Prince Caspian, Disney said that they weren't going too make any more of movies because they weren't making enough money from it. I was so angry because the next book is one of the best. Anyway, later on, 20th century fox said that they would make the movies. They are still working on the Voyage Of The Dawn Treader. Here are some pics.

This is the prow of the Dawn Treader 

The Dawn Treader


There's still a bit of work to be done, but I think it looks pretty good so far. What do you think?

Home schooling

I quite like being homeschooled. Although you do have your advantages and your disadvantages, such as you don't have as many friends when your home schooled as when you go to school, or you often don't meet as many people around your age as you would when you go to school.

But there lots of advantages too; first you don't need to go to school and  you get more time with your Mum or Dad (who ever teaches you at home) or like how we do it at home, you have a certain amount of work to do, and when you have done it all you get the rest of the day off.

With homeschooling we also do a lot of history learning. My favourite subject would be Maths or history. I hate Spelling and English. We also have a stack of books to do with learning.

Another good thing about homeschooling is that there is no homework.

Everyone has there own school books ,and we all sit in and listen to the history lesson. Another good thing about homeschooling is that if we want to go and visit our grandparents or go wherever, we don't need to worry about school, we just have the day off.

I also really like having all my brothers and sisters all togther in the same room instead of them all in different class rooms.

Also, being homeschooled you get ask a lot of questions like "Do you get too eat when ever you want too"? Or "Can you do your school work in your PJs"? But really I don't see much difference between kids who go to school and kids that are homeschooled.

Really I think that the only difference is that we just do our school work at home.

If you have any questions just leave a comment.
