How The Brain Works

We are learning how to increase our brain power.

I learned that the largest part of your brain is called the cerebrum the left side controls the right side of your body and the right side of your cerebrum controls the left side of your body. An average human has around 70,000 thoughts a day. Your memory is stored in your prefrontal cortex .If you have fixed mindset you believe you are born smart or not smart and are afraid of making mistake. If you have a growth mindset you believe that you can learn new thing by trying and not giving up and are not afraid to make a mistake and to jump into the learning pit , they will collaborate with others. I had a growth mind set and learned these two things off by heart the first 12 digits of π=3.14159265359 and how to spell onomatopoeia.

Paralympic games

Imagine that I are on the Paralympic Committee and I have been asked to create one new sport to add to the competition for this year. Use your awesome imagination to design a brand new Paralympic sport. Please remember that some of the athletes will not be able to walk or run and others may be blind or deaf.

My First games would be duck goose quack it is when there is a person that are walking around and then they have to use a creative way to get around the square with a egg and a spoon.

My Second game would be Roll a Duck in a Sack. It is when you are on a boat, but you are the duck in a sack, and you have race to go to the front and back as many times as possible. The first person to do it five times is the winner of the race.

Paralympics

It is very expensive for each of the Paralympic athletes to fly from New Zealand to Rio de Janeiro to compete.  Most athletes have to fundraiser in order to make the money that they need to go on the big trip. Recently, Harvey Norman announced that they will be helping to raise funds for the New Zealand Paralympic team. What could you do to help raise funds to support our amazing Paralympic athletes?
I would start a club to raise money of it


I would start a toy stand and raise money to help people
