how to fence
W.A.L.T: create a helpful piece of information, and highlight the order
words
HOW to FENCE
Fencing has been around since the 18th century,
and lives to this day. Fencing originated in Spain
but is used in other countries , such as Germany
and France. In fencing (interestingly enough) they
don’t call it a ‘stab’ they call it a ‘touch’. The sword
they use in fencing looks like a very thin and fragile
sword, but can pierce through the human body.
En Garde
The first step in fencing is called EN GARDE. En garde
(also known as ‘on guard’) is the most basic move in fencing.
You put your dominant leg in front, facing your opponent,
and your back leg facing left or right (whatever feels most comfortable.)
then bend your knees, enough that it doesn’t hurt and raise your hand
to look like an L for balance.
Advance
Following that, the next technique is named ADVANCE
Advance is another simple one, your front foot moves forward one step,
and your back leg follows (whilst staying in the same position.)
Retreat
Retreat is just the opposite of Advance.
Front leg moves back one step so your two feet make an
L, then your back foot follows.

The Figure
One second you saw it, the next you didn’t.
The figure in the distance grew nearer with every passing second, the figure sent chills
down my spine. The forest made me feel cold inside, it was like it was somehow alive.
The tall leafless trees stood tall in the dark. It was a cold yet windless night. The fence was
made from old fashioned plywood. The thick mist was awaiting me in the distance. The grass
was overgrown and was trailing its way up the fence.

“Just a little longer to go” I say to myself, as the figure started to sprint at me,
I turned and ran in the opposite direction and never saw the figure again, some say its still out,
waiting for its next victim

MineCraft block of the day #1
The block of the day...
Is a Grass Block!
the grass block has been in Minecraft since the very beginning.
there are many variety's of dirt such as Mycelium, Coarse dirt, Padzol, Sand and Gravel.
bone meal when used on grass blocks creates tall grass, and when broken gives you seeds that you can use to create a farm!
Mycelium is only found on Mushroom islands, which aren't exactly common to come across
there is a 1 in 10 chance to come across a mushroom biome.
sand is found at beaches and deserts, meaning its quit common to come across, sand and gravel can also spawn at the bottom of the ocean
Padzol is most commonly found in mega tiaga biomes, it looks like dirt but with a orange and green tint that makes it stand out.
