Born to Run!!!!!

  27th September 2020 - The Coast to Coast Relay: I decided to take on a challenge hosted by a running club named North East Project. The challenge was to take part in a relay from one side of England to the other. I ran almost seven miles and alongside me was my dad, this was the furthest I had ever run and it was extremely difficult. My run consisted of many different terrains including gravel and grass. A few other people joined my dad and me on this part of the relay.

 This autumn, I haven’t let the pandemic stop me running. I have still managed to compete.

 

Result: 6.88 miles = 1:01:30  

 Dinosaurs were once the superior species and were once the only living thing today but we still admire them, but why? They’re dead but we like them maybe because of how huge they are or about how fascinating they can be, either way we still like them but sadly they had one small flau, their small brains. They may be big but they’re not smart at all. The smartest dinosaur is actually one very small called Troodon! Yeah they were small but were very smart and did good hunting if they were in a pack.

But what about the biggest? Well in fact Argentinosaurus is the biggest one we know of today. It was a massive theropod and theropods are dinosaurs like Brachiosaurus, Apatosaurus and no carnivores are theropods.

But if you want the biggest carnivore than you’re wanting to see is apparently ( I don’t know for sure because i just found out on ) the well known Spinosaurus! Yes, in fact it actually ate fish (which is a type of meat I guess) and it had a long snout and a sail on its back and it was used to saw stuff apart! I’m just kidding but it's actually used to collect heat from the sun while it sits down to make all the heat spread out when it goes swimming in cold water.

Scratch - A Brilliant Coding Website

 Scratch is one of the best coding websites to use, since although it can create some extraordinary programs, it is so simple. 

To start a program, you need to go to the ‘Events’ section. Your program could end up being a game, a piece of artwork and so much more, it’s all up to you! If you like, you can click the orange share button, and the entire Scratch community will be able to see your project, just as you will be able to do for others. Backdrops and sprites can be inserted into your program too. Sprites (in-game characters) can be added via either: Google Searches, the Scratch sprites, or you can design one yourself! Video sensing, variables and sounds are just a few of the countless incredible features on this website. Also, almost everything is customizable: there are customizable sounds, sprites, colours, variables, code blocks, coordinates, sizes, transparency and thats only a few! 

So those are a few reasons for why I massively recommend trying this coding website. The link is: https://scratch.mit.edu/ .
