Winter Sport- Basketball

Last week on Friday, eight teams competed in a small basketball competition.My team, Team 5, played against Team 1. We played three games all against the same team. In the first round our score was 1-0. Zero to us. After 20 minutes of drills and a small team talk, we played the second round. This time we did much better. We scored three goals, two of which, scored by myself. In the last round, the opponent team scored one goal. Overall, the score was 3-2, a close score. The other team played very well as well. We all had a fantastic time! In our practice sessions, I learnt many other helpful skills. For example, shooting, dribbling etc.

My Leadership Roles

I have a series of leadership roles at school this year, as becoming in the intermediate section of our school gives us more opportunities. At the moment I am in senior choir, am a librarian, am in the student council, have a part in the school production (I also had a main part last year as well) and am a Winter Sport at Oaklands team leader.Hopefully more rolls will come either this year or next year.

Winter Sport Leadership

Recently I have been chosen to be a leader for Winter Sport at Oaklands. Being a leader consists of :  running the sports drills, planning the drills, helping the group perfect their sports skills, making sure my team works together and simply being a role model. Each week Tamara,the other group 5 leader and I will plan our drills for our team.

My Landscape Art

In my art I think my landscape is at the relational stage because I have used a vanishing point and horizon.My next step is to ask for feedback.

King Tutankhamun

Introduction

In 1341 BC, a king to be was born, Tutankhamun.His father, the Pharoh of Egypt was ruling at that time and was married to an egyptian woman, known as 'The Younger Lady'.After nine years, the young boy took reign, and was known as King Tutankhamun, 12th ruler of the 18th egyptian dynasty.

Childhood

Tutankhamun was born in Akhetaten in 1341 BC.He was born to Amenhotep (also known as Akhenaten) and his mother 'The Younger Lady'.At nine years of age, he took reign and fixed all that was wrong.He was King Tutankhamun, 12th ruler of the 18th egyptian dynasty.

Family/Middle Years

At a young age he married his half sister, Ankhesenpaaten, who, later, changed her name to Ankhesenamun.They later on had two daughters, that sadly died.One died at five or six months of pregnancy, the other, nine.

Death/Afterdeath

In 1323, Tutankhamun suddenly died.There are many ideas on how he died, some thought he died of Maleria, and others thought he was murdered.The tomb was prepared hastily for the 18 year old DEAD king to lie in as he died suddenly.His tomb was discovered in 1922, nearly 3000 years after his death.It was found in what is now the Valley of The Kings, by British archeologists.When the tomb was found, it was robbed at least twice.It is well known for its amazing treasures, which have been moved to museums throughout Egypt.

Impact

In Egypt, a Pharoh would oversee the temples, law, crops and other important things.Tutankhamun's father left the country in a bad condition, which only left Tutankhamun to fix it.He succeded immensly, and was one of the most respected Pharohs.

Conclusion

Overall, Tutankhamun was a very effective leader and put all wrong, right!He is most famous for his amazing tomb and its bejewled treasures.
