Baseball

Baseball has been a lot of fun lately. We have been playing well and have only lost one game. It has been a lot of fun playing with the high schoolers, and it is a new, hard challenge. Playing sports for your school feels different than playing in a league because it represents you. I also think that it’s really cool that I get to play sports for high school as an 8th grader.

Math

In math lately, we have been doing a lot. We have been learning about radicals and scientific notation which I think is really cool because it seems to be a useful skill to have. I think that what I am doing in math is cool and I like how what we’re doing is to my speed and I am learning a lot of new things. I think that this keeps me engaged in math class because I am challenged enough. I think that this helps me call out less because I have more things that I need to focus on.

My Fun Break

Over break, I had a lot of fun. What I did over this break was ski. What I did while I was skiing was fun. The fun thing that I did whilst skiing was just regular skiing in Vermont, specifically a mountain called Stowe. Stowe is the name of the town in Vermont where I skied. Stowe is the name of the mountain that I skied at. In Stowe, I skied a lot of different runs, some were greens, some were blues and some were blacks, and by the way, some were double blacks. It was a very fun time in Vermont that I had, and then, I went to a little mountain called Catamount. At this mountain, I am an instructor. What I do is I instruct. I instruct people of all ages. One day, I taught someone how to ski, and I realized that since I taught him how to ski, that is an experience that can stay with him for the rest of his life.
