Edublogs challenge 1
Hello. My name is Nachman. I’m in 6th grade at Poughkeepsie Day School. I live in the town of Poughkeepsie, in the state of New York. I like to travel, and every summer I go to visit my grandparents in India. I was actually born in England, but my family moved to America when I was one year old. When I go to India, we sometimes stop over in other countries along the way. So, this past summer I got to visit Japan because I was flying to India from the west coast of America, as I spent the first part of the summer in Tahoe, California. I loved it in Japan! I really enjoyed trying the new food and seeing and doing new things! I stayed up one night and went to a communal bath in Kyoto and was surprised to see how busy it was at 10 p.m.! At one point, I went into an electrified bath, and got the shock of my life! I also had fun exploring a bullet train, even as it sped along at 200 mph.
I also like to play soccer and squash. I play “travel” team soccer, for my town – which means that my team has to travel to other towns to play. In other words, I don’t get much of a break on Sundays because I have to go to my games. I also plan to play soccer for PDS. I don’t play squash seriously, although I enjoy playing with my friends.
In school, I enjoy arts classes. I have an outdoor drawing class, an Imovies class, and an art with technology class, all of which I look forward to. I really like to read. Some of my favorite series are: Artemis Fowl, The Hunger Games, and Alex Rider. Right now I’m thinking about reading a book called Gone, which a friend of mine showed me. I also play the piano.
Do you play any sports or instruments? What do you like to do in your free time?
