Have you been watching the Paralympics? The Paralympics has now started and that means we will start researching it and writing about it. I am very excited about it because I like the athletes because you may think the olympians are amazing, They are But paralympians have disabilities which makes it twice as hard. Which is amazing. We had a task today which was to make some slides about it. I found it hard to rewrite the sentences onto my slides But I really liked researching them. Please comment on what you think I did well and if you have a cool fact about the Paralympics I might add it to my slides. Matewa
Morena Charlotte,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your depth of information written in your own words. I have been watching the highlights of the Paralympic Games and it is so incredible seeing so many athletes setting world records. I had never heard of Trischa Zorn and the incredible amount of medals she earned. Do you have a favourite Paralympic sport?

DeleteThanks for commenting. Personally I think swimming is the best paralympic sport becuase its very competitive and its amazing how fast they swim with one arm or 1 leg and many other things that could slow them down Its very cool.

It is amazing, right? I saw someone who had just thighs and no arms swimming. They were incredible.
DeleteKia ora Charlotte,
ReplyDeleteI learned so much from reading your work! I watched Sophie Pascoe win a gold medal last night and am in awe of what these athletes do to overcome their disability and participate.
I was amazed to read your information about the lady who won 55 medals! That is absolutely amazing!
