Facts: Oscar has participated in many events of the Olympic games. His talent is to run. He is representing his country, South Africa in the Paralympic events. He is competing in the Paralympics because the Paralympics is only for disabled people. Once, Oscar competed in the abled athlete races. Oscar is known as the “Blade Runner”.

Olympism is a life philosophy which draws together sport, culture and education. The Olympic movement was originally promoted by Coubertin. Excellence, friendship and respect is a essential part of the Olympic movement.
The Olympic ideal refers to not only winning, but also about giving your personal best on
the field and in daily life. The values of excellence are participating, giving one’s best and striving to complete your goals.
Men and women are the centre of the Olympic movement. The Idea of team spirit is to build a new bond and friendship with both your teammates and opposition, encourage your opponent and to also despite the difference of culture and their religion.
The Olympic spirit is to respect one’s self, one’s body and one another. It is also to take part, have a positive attitude, play-fair and to follow rules. Every athlete should be inspired by the Olympic spirit.
The Olympic spirit, is all this, and more

This term I think we a really going to find out more about the Olympics because this term our topic is Go for gold. I really hope that I could learn about my favourite sports, boxing and running. We might even be able to find out more about famous olympians like Peter Snell, Jesse Owens and also Usain Bolt.
I am really looking forward to learn about the olympics. I wonder what’s still going to come this term. Maybe we would get a chance to try out and experience more things about the Olympics.
Imagine having a big black spider in your classroom or house. Do you think that will be scary? Well I think it will.
“Ok kids it’s time to take the fabrics off the wall” said Miss King. As we took it down the spider suddenly moved all around and went somewhere else because we had disturbed it. It was angry at us.
The spider in our classroom looked really scary and huge. I felt like it was going to bite someone, but it didn’t. Luckily no one was hurt.
What did I enjoy?
I enjoyed painting my artwork because it was fun.
Things I didn’t enjoy
I really didn’t enjoy waiting for my artwork to dry.
What did I learn?
I learnt how to draw abstract paintings.
How do I feel about my term overall?
My work has made my term really cool.
What did I find most interesting?
When I painted I found out that when I blended my colours it looked interesting.
What could I have done better to help my learning?
I should've learned how to blend like an artist. I need to practise to master that.
