The Mulimedia challenge

This is the front page of My website. In class we have been working on creating websites for a website design competition. I came up with the idea that people are going to spend heaps at the rugby world cup so I decided to come up with something that can draw your attention to the fact that there are cheaper opition's. You can look at all the prices for transport and things that you have to have so take a look a it at www.are/you/ripped/off.com.

Touch Typing

Touch Typing

This is the score that I got in the touch typing test I scored 11 words per minute but yet made 77 mistakes we have been working on the touch typing since the start of the year My first score for touch typing in term 1 was 4 words per minute. I have improved by six since then. My goal for my next touch typing test is that I score over 11 words per minute but I know that I will have to work hard.For this typing test we use sense lang witch you can play typing games and tests, we also use dance mat typing witch you have 6 levels with 3 stages in each level. These are both very good websites witch have really improved my touch typing score per minute.

The Library

In Class we have been working on descriptive writing this just one of the many story's that I have wrote it is about a book that is lonely and unwanted he then moves home and is noticed.

I peer around the blank room the fresh smell of the new and loved book lingers round .I see piles and piles of stacked books on tables and wonder wether were moving home. I have sat next to the new and loved books for years wondering wether someone will pick me up read me and love me but sadly my dreams have been smashed squashed and thumped. Some of my pages are torn and musty well other books still hold the fresh smell of ink. I’ve only been issued once but I was forgotten about and left with their water bottle. Today was my chance to get noticed today was my chance to stand out today was my chance t get issued wether they liked it or not.
