Lol, I do!!!!!! ;) Love you :)-Shany Hello i don't know if anyone still reads this but anyway HI!

Hey Charlie! Don't forget my memory stick!!!!Shan:)

My app idea

 Emma and I came up with an idea because we have both played the same game on my dads iPad and found it really fun.  The app we are basing it on on is called 'Frisbee'. Frisbee is where you control a frisbee and you can tap (or tilt to) one side to turn in that direction. You have to fly through hoops to get to the end of the level. We came up with the idea called 'Paper Planes'. Where just like frisbee you can tap (or tilt to) one side to turn in that direction flying through a paper world. You will be able to earn different planes when you move up certain levels starting with a not very good plane and slowly the planes you earn will get better. At the beginning you will be able to design your plane how ever you want! !

Week 1. Term 4 (already :- Homework

My Ipad app I chose is one my dad and sister are OBSESSED with. To be honest I don't see how it is that great but I thought I would do it for them. The app is called Smurfs village.

Description of App

Smurfs Village is a ipad, ipod or iphone app about the famous little, blue um. . . . people. In it you are the creator of your very own Smurf Village when the evil Gargamel destroys the original village and scatters the smurfs. You start with only a few smurfs and the more coins you earn (by buying seeds, growing and harvesting crops) you move up levels. Each time you move up a level you 'find' a new smurf which can help earn points if you invest in them ( Quite like being an entrepreneur ).

1. What are the common features in apps?

Colour - Fun - Addictive - Learning - Cost or free - Themes

2. What makes you want to get them?

When they have colour, are free, are addictive, word of mouth ,high ratings, are fun!!!

3. Does money stop you from getting them?

For me it depends on how expensive. I find that I would not spend more than $3 on a game but if it were a more useful app such as Keynote I would consider spending more. Smurfs Village is free.

4. Four images from the splash page

Wow Term 3 has gone so fast. I have really enjoyed creating our Survival Kits this term and am really proud of them. My favourite part was getting the products and seeing what we had ordered. I also liked meeting with Terry (the girl) from Hibiscus Matters. My over all favourite part of this term was definitely our 'Black Out Day'

I am also really happy with my test scores this term.

What I want to do next term would probably be something to do with going on a class trip (camp does not count) I wish this year would never end!!!!! (I don't want to go to college)

Term 2 Reflection

My Goals for term 2 were: To get a gold certificate on mathletics - I did get it and was so proud. To beat my score in the beep test 11-3 - I did beat my score and ended out getting 12-2 To have 3 completed shows for sloop - We did only get 2 shows done but the ones that are done look GREAT! Although theoretically I did do three shows because I made a Sloop Extra show as well. Over all I think I did quite well.

Well done Charlotte it is great to see you striving to achieve these goals. Very impressive. Mr Barrow

Cross Country Reflection
 * Gulf Harbour school had their Senior cross country on Monday the 9th of May. [[image:runner_clip_art.png align="right"]]
 * The walk down to Shakespeare Beach wasn't too bad but everything was wet so I spent all day in wet shoes! :-(
 * While I waited for my race all of us year 8 girls cheered on all of the other racers.
 * Then it was my turn.
 * The first lap wasn't that bad and I wasn't panicking. However the last lap was absolute pain (not really but it was definitely hard)
 * I felt really great when I finished the 3.2 kilometre race and I had come 8th.
 * When we got back to school, I hung up my bag and then sat down to relieve my aching feet.

This is my Week 6 Homework. Designing ideas for our class

Well done Charlotte. It is now a shame that we cant do them because we dont have any computers. Mr B
