Bubble school



Bubble school

Yesterday we had school. It's not normal at school because we have to stay 1 metre away from others and do work. It's strange because there are not a lot of us at school. There are about 3 bubbles but we are not allowed to interact with other bubbles. We have different kind of year levels at school in our bubble, we have ( year 3 - year 7 ) and more. When we have morning tea and we go and play outside we still have to stay 1 metre away from others. On morning tea we were doing some spots we did some running racing and more. Then we went back to our classroom we did some catch up for maths and reading and DLO. After we did all of that it was lunch time. In lunch time we did some bike riding around the school but after 30 minutes playing on the bikes we had to put the bikes back but we got to keep our own helmet to our self too. Really strange right. And then we had to go to class.

All the bubbles had their own spaces to play outside. All of the kids in different bubbles get our own IMac to ourselves. It’s really strange a whole iMac to ourselves. We are doing online school at school, super strange. Do you think it’s strange? There are about 8 people in my bubbles i don’t know about the other bubbles so yeah we don’t move to literacy or maths. And all of us had to stay in the same class all day, oh and we finish at 2:30 now.some of us will walk home or some has to get pick up from school.

about apex


Image result for apex background
Apex Legends. Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. It was released for Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on February 4, 2019, without any prior announcement or marketing. The game is currently in its fourth season.
Because of its compact, historic neighborhoods and bucolic New England waterfront, Boston is probably America's greatest walking city. Similarly pedestrian-friendly cities such as Cambridge surround it, too. This makes the Boston region especially easy to visit and to navigate with kids, including around the holidays.
Apex Legends" feels better to play, from gunplay to movement to strategy, than any other Battle Royale game available. ... It's perhaps the most impressive aspect of "Apex Legends": The game simply feels good to move around in. The same can't be said for any other Battle Royale game.

I like fortnite


Image result for fortnite background
Fortnite is a survival game where 100 players fight against each other in player versus player combat to be the last one standing. It is a fast-paced, action-packed game, not unlike The Hunger Games, where strategic thinking is a must in order to survive. There are an estimated 125 million players on Fortnite.
Unlike most popular online games, Fortnite offers players the chance to make use of multiple player skills, most of which are optional. At its core, it's a game about shooting people. ... Battle Royale is also a pretty good stealth game, allowing players to creep their way into the end-game without firing a shot.
Fortnite is harmful for kids. ... Besides, Fortnite is violent. Sure, it doesn't show blood, but players still kill each other, and that's too intense for kids. The game is free, but it pushes players to spend money to buy extras, like dance moves for the characters. The game has more than 200 million accounts.
On PC alone the game has 70+ million players, so most of the accounts are on mobile. The ease of use, combined with creative controls and a plethora of other features really makes Fortnite an incredible game to play.
