GREAT NEWS EVERYONE!! :)

No one needed to be so disappointed about Valerie Adams getting silver, because really she was better than that. But now she has the medal to prove it :)!!! Wondering what I'm going on about?? Well  last night Valerie won GOLD!!! It was because the winner for the Women's Shot Put final turned out to be taking drugs! (meaning that we got the gold medal!!! (:)  :)

Class Poll!

Hi Room 11 Bloggers!
A poll for you all to ponder and comment on:

This week Valerie Adams won a silver medal in the shot put, but she, and many others are disappointed in her efforts. What do you think? Should we be more excited and celebrate another amazing medal win for our small country, or dispare at the loss of a gold?
The day before her event she found out that officials had not even entered her! What about this mistake? Do you think it would have unsettled her?
Please give me feedback on this interesting topic!
