Adventures of Arumunks 2

"Arumunksyouneedahealer!" gasped Zigzag as Arumunks groaned and got up from the place where he had fallen with three cyganaryian spears in his back and a life draining,cyganaryian wolf rider sword embedded in his skull. Around him lay the three hundred and fifty seven cyganaryian warriors and seven wolf riders whose lives he had taken. He was brought to the healers and put in the emergency room to be healed by the orb-touched healer specialist, Helaas, after three hours and twenty seven healing spells which used most of Helaas's magical energy, he was able to walk and cast minor spells. The funeral pyres were lit, and each zakanian's burning was attended to by his or her family and friends, the enemy dead were unceremoniously blasted to ash and thrown into the river. At the council meeting, Arumunks and the orb-touched discussed battle strategies. " I suggest we launch an attack at their retreating warriors and then use a small strike force to attack the cyganaryian city directly" said Adras, one of the older warriors, "no!" cried Meraas "you can't send the warriors to their doom like that!". "He does have a point Adras" put in Helaas, "I suggest we destroy the retreating warriors and then send messengers calling for reinforcements, the enemy won't expect the warriors back for a while and we should be able to get reinforcements in that time". There was a general agreement and they consented to send Wardnel and Arumunks with twenty warriors and ten spell-casters to destroy the hundred or so cyganaryian warriors that had retreated. Once that was done they sent Zigzag and a few others to get reinforcements.

The Adventures of Werty and Gnomey 3

"Sir, its getting much darker than before" called one of the guards, "yes, strange isn't it?" muttered Gnomey. Suddenly, a shape appeared in the distance, stumbling and lurching, like a troll, a very small troll... "weapons at the ready" shouted Sicsun-moor and the seventeen gnomish warriors surrounded the three magicians in a protective circle. "prepare defensive spells" bellowed Thacsan-sedekan, the gnomish magician's axes started to glow with red, brown and turquoise light.

Werty looked up and saw strange light coming from the top of the hill that he was climbing "huh, funny that, it looks like gnome magic, I must be hallucinating" he mumbled to himself "I'm absolutely crazy". He walked up to it and was blasted back by a beam of yellow light. His head snapped up and he went into full berserk battle mode. He charged and went straight through the barrier of gnomish warriors and magicians, hurling them to the side as easily as if they were made of paper instead of flesh and blood. Then, the air around him glowed yellow and before he could even react, he was sent flying and he hit the ground, once, twice, three times before he tumbled to a stop. A stream of yellow light hit him and he blacked out.

Our Central idea:

An economy affects people and the environment

Our lines of inquiry:

• Organization of economic systems
• Ways in which trade makes us interdependent
• The ethics of trade

Here is a video I think relates to this : 

I think this relates to our theme because we were looking into unfair economies and this emphasizes unfairness because the workers worked long hours with little pay and there is lots of poverty in the village.

Grammar Ninja

I am going to review a grammar game called Grammar ninja, I'm going to tell you which age I think it is designed for and what I think about it. I think this game is suited for quite a broad category of ages and I would rate it for kids from about 6 to 13. I would probably give this game an 8/10 because it's a bit boring but otherwise it's excellent.

In Grammar ninja you choose a level (Beginner ninja, Skilled ninja and Master ninja). Then you have to find the part of speech specified above (nouns and verbs for beginner, nouns, verbs, pronouns, articles, adjectives and adverbs for skilled and everything for mastered). A small box towards the bottom left tells you how many words you've got left to identify, a larger box at the bottom tells you what kind of word it is if you fail and a box at the top right gives you a hint if you need it. You identify the word by clicking on it.

I liked this game because it adds a cool twist to learning about grammar. It also has a ninja stare down at the start. If you want to try it yourself just click this link, Grammar ninja.

Equivalent fractions

I am going to review an equivalent fractions memory game and I will tell you which age group I think this game is suited for and if I think you should play it. I think this game is a good game for ages 8-12 who are learning about equivalent fractions. I would probably give this game an eight out of ten because its a little bit boring.

In this game you click two squares and they flip, if they are equivalent fractions they will stay there with a black outline, if they aren't they will flip back. If you would like to play click on this link

Three limericks I wrote:

There once was a very small cat 

but he began to get very fat

He wanted to implode 

but he started to explode

and that was the end of that

There once was a very big bean

but he began to get very lean

He decided to eat

a lot through his feet

but then he became the queen

There once was a very sad dog 

who always sat on a log

He drifted down river

and began to shiver

but then he was killed by frog

My favorite poem by Nicholas:

There once was a cat named Splat

Who had a very large plait,

His plait got cut,

By a nut,

And that was the end of that.
