What a week it's been!

Hello out there,

We have had a week full of interesting things to write about...

We had our exciting weekends, guy fawkes, and then we summarised all that we had learnt so far about China, in the form of a list.  We found that we had learnt a whole lot. We also decided that instead of our regular reading  activities on Wednesday and Thursday, we would write books, using recycled paper. We shared them in assembly.

Here are just a few of our stories:

2. I learnt that Shanghai is the largest city in China.
3. Goldfish make great pets.
4. The giant black and white panda are the slowest animals in China.
5. You can see the great wall of China from the moon.
6. I also learnt that the great wall of China is the longest wall in the whole world.

Thinking about Fireworks

Last night me and my mum were making a cake while waiting for guy faulks to come. Beautiful flashing came out when the fireworks were out. I rushed out the door and my whole family came out. I saw heaps of colourful flashing down the black velvet sky.

Watching fireworks at home when I was four

Two years ago, when I ws four years old, I saw fireworks blooming in the twinkling sky at home. My sister was too young to watch them zoom in the old sky. I saw all the colours of the rainbow. Some fireworks split up into different colours. I enjoyed seeing the fireworks.

That is all for now, we hope you like reading our stories. We have been trying hard to make them really interesting, using describing words, so that they will be enjoyable to read.

Have a great weekend!
