Pokemon Go Banned In Iran

Pokemon Go, one of the most famous game and dangerous game has been banned in Iran because of security concerns. Iran is the first country to issue a ban of Pokemon Go, a game that challenges players to visit real-world place to catch cartoon creatures. This game uses a GPS on a phone and camera to put people right in the game. Also in France a player was arrested last month after straying on to a military base while trying to catch a Pokemon. Pokemon Go is a very dangerous game, my opinion is to ban Pokemon Go every where because people are ending up in hospital and in heaven.

Every morning I wake up at 7.00am and have my breakfast to fill up my energy, I then go out for a run around the block. After I finish up my go to the basketball court at the Barra Olympic Park and start shooting some hoops so I can practise for the Olympics, I mostly practised my 3 pointers and my layups. I then went to see on the leader board to see who we are go up against. When I saw the leader board, we were against the United States team and was happening at the Barra Olympic Park. Our game is starting on August the 6th.

Making a Olympic Mascot

Today in the afternoon our whole classroom were creating our own mascot. This is my mascot that I made. I chose to make this because it represents my country.

Government to buy $500m ship

The Government is to buy a $493 million naval tanker. This ship will be custom-made to use in the Antarctic and will  replace the 30-year-old HMNZS endeavour. Plus the new ship will be used to refuel naval vessels and helicopters at sea and to supply fuel and fresh water. Furthermore the new vessel will be built by South Korean company Hyundai Heavy Industries and is expected for delivery in 2020.

Bonus: During the ancient Olympic Games, men were allowed to compete in the events but women were not. In fact, they were often forbidden from even watching the games. In your opinion, is this fair? Why or why not? On your blog please tell us what you think about this interesting rule.

I say it is fair and unfair because if the girl join the ancient olympics with the boys they would get hurt because the sports are really dangerous and these sports could make them end up in hospital.

Activity 2:  In the ancient Olympic Games the winner of each event was called the Olympionic. Instead of a gold medal, the winner had a palm leaf placed in their hands and a crown placed on their head to show that they were the winner. Arguably one of the most famous Olympionics was a man named ‘Milo of Croton’ (see picture below). Use Google to research ‘Milo of Croton’ and post three interesting facts about him.

3 interesting facts about Milo Of Croton:

• Milo of Croton was a wrestler with several ancient olympic titles under his belt.
• Milo of Croton led the Crotoniate army to victory over the Sybarites (Greeks from sybaris, also in Southern Italy) about 510  BC
• Milo of Croton won 32 wrestling competitions

Activity 1: Let’s imagine that you were alive 2792 years ago and invited to compete in the first ever ancient Olympic Games. Which of these events: running, wrestling, boxing, preparation, horse racing and pentathlon would you compete in?

My Answer: If I was alive 2792 years ago and I got invited to participate in a sport will be wrestling because when I watch it on t.v it look cool and sometimes I feel like doing it. Sometimes my brothers and I when we were little used to play wrestling on our trampoline, so that’s why the sport I would pick is Wrestling.
