Ripstik
Ripstik
A ripstik is basically a skateboard and a bike. It has two weals like a bike and is flat like a skateboard. To ride a ripstik you need balance. To move the ripstick you need to wiggle your legs. Using the ripstik is good for your leg muscles and helps you balance (plus the fact that its fun). Since the start of my second lockdown I've been practising using my ripstik. I started off going 60 centimetres practising with my sister. I asked my sister if I could try teaching myself so she left. Then I went a metre and before I new it I could go two metres. The next day I practised turning so I did a lap of my court. Then started learning to do two laps by turning the ripstik. After a lot of practise I'm now really good and can now go from my basketball hoop to my netball hoop and can do as much laps as I like. Anybody can ride a ripstik.

Calving
Calving
Ever since I was born I've been living on a farm. From November to February we start making silage for the farm. From August to May it is milking season. From August to September it is calving season, when its calving season we get baby cows (calfs) and feed them, so some can go to a different farm or we keep them so they can grow up and eat grass.
Right now it's August (calving season) so I help mum everyday to feed the calves. we start by getting some milk then the calves change pens after there feed every morning. After we have too much calfs we take a fence away so there are lots of little pens and a giant big pen. If there are to much calves we can't feed them in that pen we drive a really huge feeder and put it in the pen. When all the calves are fed we wash the feeders. We only wash the feeders in the mornings not the afternoons.
Don't forget to drink milk everyday because Milk Is good for your bones.

FRIDAY 20 AUGUST 2021
Today it started off with me watching MR Bean on TV. When every body wakes up Johanna, Lotte, Mum and me went onto the farm to feed the calfs. While Dad did something (I don't know what) with the cows. When we got home I practised riding on the ripstick. Then after a few hours I came inside so mum could measure me and weigh me. then we went back on the farm to feed the calfs while dad did a thing with the cows. I must say the calfs did well on feeding. There were none that didn't feed. Then we went home and I fed our two dogs some biscuits meanwhile our other dog did something else. (probably trying to finding Mum) Then I went inside and went on my chrome book to write a blog about my day.

Chess
Chess
Chess is a very old game but is still here now. Chess is 1500 years old. The pawn can start off moving 1 or 2 squares. If you move 1 square with a pawn you can not move 2 any more. The castle can move up, down left and right. The horse can jump over pieces as well as moving two squares then going to the side one square. A bishop can only go on an angle. The queen can move on an angle or go left, right, up or down. A king can go any direction but it can only go one square at a time. The aim of the game is to get the other teams king. So if I was you I would keep your king very safe.
Setting up: To set up you have to get you castle on each side. Then you horse goes next to you castle. Then you bishop goes next to your horse. Then you queen and king go in the middle. the queen will go on the opposite colour so if you have a white queen you put it on the black and the king goes next to you.
cool move: This move is called the castle move. If you have not moved you king or castle you can swap there positions.
