Literacy Planet

This is what I've been upto during the past 2 or 3 weeks. Literacy Planet. This is a very fun educated site to go on, it helps with your reading, metaphors, punctuation etc. Already I've learnt a lot from this task. Basically you get your teacher or parent to set your account up. They then unlock task for you to master each day. If you get all the answer correct you get gems. In my class we see who is winning, so we make it to be like a competition which is fun but we do get competitive at times. I'm currently in 2nd place with 158 points and 234 gems. 

105 Year Old Running Breaks Record

This article was quite surprising, even the title "105-year-old runner sets world record" seemed strange. This was a fascinating essay to read. In a timing of 1 minute and 2 seconds, Julia Hawkins set a new world record in the 100m. This time was extremely nice to some people, like myself, but Julia was disappointed because she hoped to finish it in one minute.
