What a week Zarek has had!

Hey Room 7! First of all, I miss all you guys! Now, let me tell you about the awesome week I have had here in America.

On Tuesday me and my family went to the Montana Fair. At the fair, I went on a whole bunch of spectacular rides. But my favourite ride was either the "Himalaya" or the "Starship 4000." On the "Himalaya", you get in a car and the car just keeps driving around and around until it is going fast enough to have vomit exploding from your mouth. And the "Starship 4000" is a doozy too. You load onto this spaceship looking room that spins so speedy fast, that when it is going its speediest, you get pressed up against these boards that go up and down according to the gravity level inside the ship. Pretty cool, huh?

Listen to this; my siblings and I started being home-schooled on Wednesday! Everyday, I start school with four pages of my work book. Then I move onto my writing, then my maths, then my science, until finally I get study time. It's kind of weird being home-schooled.

Also during the week ( I actually I just got back from it), me, my parents, and my brothers went to see The Beach Boys in concert at The Alberta Bair Theatre. They rocked the house with songs like Surfin' U.S.A. and Do It Again. I wore my T-shirt with palm trees on it because palm trees are usaully found on beaches where The Beach Boys are, right?

In about one week me and my family are going to go visit Calgary (that's a city in Canada). It is a 10 hour drive one way so, it is going to be along drive. But more about that next time.

This is Zarek signing off.

Zarek's Trip to Yellowstone National Park

Hey Room 7,

I just journeyed to Yellowstone National Park, the first and biggest National Park in the whole World!!! I saw some pretty awesome wildlife there like grizzly/black bears. I had a blast, considering we only stayed one night. (But a good one night!) We stayed in the little town of West Yellowstone. And I'll have to tell you this; the busy little town of West Yellowstone. In West Yellowstone they were having an "Old Fashioned Car Weekend" and we got to see some pretty old, old (but cool) cars. Unfortunately, we didn't get any pictures of the cars. But we did get some pretty darn good photos taken on our trip.

Zarek, Reporting from America

It's Zarek here reporting from America.

Hope you guys are enjoying yourselves in life.

I don't know about you, but it is sunny skies here in Montana. Boiling hot too. The other day, it was 103 degrees.

Speaking of degrees; I just went to a water park called Big Splash and I went down a 75-degree-angle water slide and my togs almost about ripped!

I just finished theatre camp a week ago. It was AWESOME!!! At camp we learnt how to dance to "Thriller"(by Michael Jackson). It was a really complicated dance. In addition to dancing, we learnt how to sing better and act better. We even learnt how to do yoga! And after two weeks of learning, we had to do a play. My play that I was in was "The Untold Story of Hansel and Gretel." And guess what; I got the main part out (Hansel) of 15 kids!

Anyway, enough about me. See you soon.

2010 Art Exhibition - reflections

All the hype and excitement of the art exhibition is over - until the next one!  Time now, to reflect on what we learnt from the process we went through to produce work that we were proud of.
We all selected the art work that we were most proud of - hard choice for most of us - and inserted it into our reflections document.  Here is what Zarek had to say before he raced off to America.
