Our Newspapers

Newspapers........

The boys in 4th Class are reading newspapers. We decided to make our own version of the paper. Below are some of the boys work.

Pen Pals

Today we did a pen pal activity with children in Canada. I am writing to caroline, Jason, kevin and Usaamah .They all had a lot of news for us. I got 4 letters and they all sounded great Usaamah told me that she has three sisters, a mam and dad. Two of her sisters always pick on her and the other one helps her do her homework. Caroline told me tat she likes her school and likes doing french maths , science and also gym. She likes climbing the rope because she was the only one to get to the top. Jason Briggs told me tat they have got the c.n tower it is the biggest tower in the world. kevin told me that he is doing a pen pal on the internet with some one from China. I am writing back to each of them. I like this idea. by Tyler

My Night at the Quiz by Tyler

Last night was great, we were really excited and loved it.

We were called the Quiz Masters it was me (Tyler) Conor Dylan S, Dylan K and Dean M. were on a team in the first round. We got eight answers right ,and were really delighted .

Then we got eight on the next round and got excited. There was nice people there and the adults the blue tops and yellow tops were were so so nice to us.

Then we all started round three we got one wrong. Then my ma brought me over a big bottle of water ,so we started round four and got one wrong again where the question was what is the smallest continent ,we said South America but it was Australia. Then it was the final round and we got one wrong again. So are final total was 37 but we got most competitive team in it. I started jumping up and down like a mad scientist.
