Bakeing

Hi, welcome back to my blog.  You may know this already but I love to bake and quarantine gives me a chance to experiment with different recipes. I have made quite a lot of baking since lockdown.  Unfortunately or fortunately my Dad keeps eating all the baking so I get to make more. I have made Afghans biscuits, Banana muffins, blondies and more Afghans biscuits. Today I am going to make a lemon cake and I hope it tastes good.  I also love to be in nature and since yesterday was sunny me, my brother and my Mum went for a bike ride in Burwood Forest, it was really fun. We went on a awesome track and got to go up lots of hills. My brother is a great mountain biker and loves to go down hill but dislikes uphill and I am an average mountain biker, love to go uphill and dislikes down hill. I am really glad that we are allowed to go outside for walks and bike rides and am grateful that I live in an area that is safe to do so.

Do you like to bake and if so why and what?

Favorite things to do

Hi, Welcome back to my blog. Today I will be telling you a bit more about what I like to do while I'm in quarantine. As I said in my previous blog post I love to read. Right now I am reading book 4 of the Twilight series and I am really enjoying reading the book. I love to read about any mythical creatures and vampires are my favorite type of 'monster'.  In between having my " nose in my book " as my Mum likes to say, I like to dance. Yesterday I had my first two online dance classes. It was really nice seeing everyone from my dance class, but it came as a bit of a shock when I found out how inflexible I had become within 5 days. I think that it is really nice how the dance school is trying to still keep up the lessons, but still I wish that my ballet school would put up dance classes online. I thought that the online class when really well considering how much space most people had. We learnt the rest of the syllabus for contemporary and learnt a combo to a Billie Eilish song - Everything I wanted. I also got to do some work in my pointe shoes. ( It is my first year with pointe shoes so I am super excited to use them )

That's what I like to do in quarantine. What do you like to do and why?

Quarantine

Hi, welcome back to my blog. Today I will be telling you about what I have been doing in quarantine, what I like about it and what I don't like. When I first heard that school would be shutting down I was quite nervous because that meant that Covid-19 was in the community, but it was not that bad.  This is day 8 of quarantine and I am still alive. We are allowed to go outside for walks around our area as long as we keep two meters from other people and don't play or touch playgrounds. At home I have to still do maths, reading and writing but I can also play a lot more and I have more time to myself. One of my favorite things to do while in quarantine is to read. I love reading and now I have a whole lot more time to read. I am a bit disappointed because I cannot go to my dance class and even though I can dance at home I still have a LOT of things that I can improve on, that my dance teacher could help me with if I could go to dance class.  I  have a online class with my contemporary and lyrical dance teacher today but it will be different and I wish I could have a class with my ballet teacher too.  something else that I enjoy is sewing and knitting and I have had the chance to finishes a unicorn pillow that I have had for ages.

That is what I have been doing in quarantine I am now of to bake a cake. Have you been in quarantine before and if so how was or is it.

Reading task

Hi,welcome back to my blog. This week for reading my reading goal is to: Identify some text events and what they make the reader think about. For this goal we had to read a story and then list what the author did and why then we had to make a summary of the story on a poster.

That was my poster. Do you think about why the book is laid out the way it is and of so why.
