My favourite thing about learning in grill 2.0 is how we have different learning spaces to work in and how we have fast track. So the teacher doesn't tell us OK class we are doing some reading now we don't do that. We just get told okay we are going to do fast track girls go get a device boys go get a device. Everyone logs in and goes into fast track they plan out their day with fast track and teachers plan I like to plan out my day block by block. This term we are having production practises so it sometimes takes away time for fast track. I like how we use fast track other classes don't have a fast track the teachers would usually write what they have to do every day on the white board we sometimes do learning using a white board but never a day planned on one. You know how I said I like to plan my day block by block,Blocks are different times the first block goes from 9:00 to 10:00 we have an extra 30 minutes until the morning tea bell rings and we get to eat morning tea after morning tea it is the second block I plan it out and do it the second block goes from 11:00 to 12:00 the lunch bell rings everyone will go out to lunch. But on Tuesday we pack up on the second block Tuesday we have sports rotations. The third block time goes from 1:00 to 2:30. we have different tasks to do I like finishing each task at different times we have different tabs for our learning we have.... Literacy,Maths,Integration,Other. we have 3 other tabs but we just starting using o witch is book clubs Phase 2 inquiry and Maths inquiry. Learning in grill 2.0 makes me feel like i'm in the future. I never get cramps or sore hand I feel great every day learning in grill 2.0 is fun its easy to do work fast track is on computers and I pads some kids have BYOD aka bring your own device learning in grill 2.0 is different to other schools/classes. Its more fun and high tech everyone has a device to use it's always a fun day in grill 2.0

Traditional teaching style
On Tuesday the 10th of may was TTS (Traditional teaching style) I was walking to class and I saw the whole class at the front of grill 2.0 yelling. A note was on the classroom door saying...... Grill 2.0 class starts in 8:50. I wondered why class was starting on that specific time I looked through the classroom window and saw tables lined up with books on them and names for each seat I saw no devices a globe and math books and dictionary's stacked up on each other.
Finally the teachers arrived Mr R and Miss G were wearing normal clothes but they made it look old school. we had to line up one girl line one boy line the boys had to silently walk to class we followed silently, We did the roll, after the roll we sang the national anthem Mr R said that if we got cramps or the seat was to small for us they didn't care. We started with dictation Mr R said a word and we write it down. We did a lot of hard learning my seat was shorter than the table so I had a shoulder and hand cramp.
Eating time miss G said I thought this was over but no it wasn't. Mr R said to get one piece of food from our lunch box I got my potato sticks we had eat at his command Bite he yells Chew bite chew bite chew. Miss G said since we have been very good we get extra rime of scheduled marching and play.
We marched and Miss G chose who to play with where to play and what to play it was a day of torture after morning tea we went inside the teachers cracked up and told us that it was all a joke it wasn't that fun it thought we did a colour symbol image and write what colour we thought of what symbol we thought of and what image we thought of we had to explain why we thought of the answer we had. It was a really stressful day.

The candy brigade
It was a peaceful day in candy land. All the candy people were buzzing about the candy festival. the candy festival is when the candy galaxy flies over candy land and the best bit is when the new planet is born everyone brings a share of food to the festival like lollypops,cake,ice cream those types of sweets. In the afternoon sugar lump invited her friends over chocolate,caramel and flossy they played in her back yard "it would be cool if there where candy super heroes" exclaimed flossy. sugar lump and all her friends talked about super heroes for a while until they heard screams. they looked through the gate. they saw candy people running into their houses screaming in terror they where running away from the candy witches! "Such cowards" yelled one witch. "No we are not"! screamed flossy "shhhh" whispered sugar lump "no" flossy whispered back. "Hmmm" said a witch surprised "you're not scared"? says another. The head witch gets her wand out of her pocket she says some magic words flossy turns green "What have you done"?! yells sugar lump. The witches all cackle and disapear flossy turns back to normal all the candy people go outside the candy galaxy started to fly over candy land everyone was happy the witches left in time. the mayor of candy land told all the candy people that if any candy witches or monsters came the magic galaxy will always make them leave in time. so whenever it the time of the candy galaxy on that special day the candy galaxy makes the evil leave.
