Budgeting



For the last couple of weeks, Sophie and I have been deciding our future. We first had to find a job and a house to stay in. Then we had to pay for tax, power, food, car and anything else we want like phones or a dog. What I learned from this is that I will not be a millionaire once I leave home unless I win the lotto.

Bluetooth report

Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard for exchanging data over short distances from fixed and mobile devices.

Bluetooth was invented in 1998.

Bluetooth was invented, so when you want to listen to music or something like that you don't need to keep bringing an annoying long or short cord around with you wherever you go.

Bluetooth will connect to any device that you have. But your device has to be a touch screen device.  

 

This is an example of a Bluetooth ue boom speaker. This speaker will play anywhere you want but you need to keep it charged.
Ue booms are really loud speakers but really expensive.
  
You can also use lots of other Bluetooth speakers likes theses speakers but you can get more.

 


I like Bluetooth speakers way better than wire/cord speakers because they are easy to carry around and they won’t get tangled up all the time. From the experience that I have had of Bluetooth speakers I think that ue boom speakers are the loudest.


Not all speakers are expensive but the cheaper they are the worse they are.
That is what I have learned in the past.

Attack
Defence
Game Plan/Strategy
  • Use balls other than netballs that aren’t as heavy so the speed of the traveling ball also speeds up the game.
  • 4 players from each quad are allowed to sit on the bleachers to stretch their arms and intercept flying balls.
  • People on the perimeter of the quad pass the ball to someone closer to the bleachers to allow them to throw it further into the opponent's area.

I am From

I am from dry crispy grass spiking bare feet, from the loud motors of bikes, kicking up dust. I am from music through headphone's , from scootering around and around in the car port, I am from doing handstands and looking at the world upside down. I am from special birthday dinners out in town, from Christmas's out at the beach I am from a big brother that teases, from Streeter and Stephens, I am from continues

we have been writing poems all about me. here is my peace of poetry
