My Holiday Journal ( Day 1 )

Today I had to get ready to go to dancing at 7:30 in the morning for a 8:30 start. I hoped for a PJ day but dancing is to important to miss. After dancing we where going to go to the pool but mum decided we should just go home and get some rest before we start going to the pool and playing at home and at friends houses, So I went home and watched a movie called The Smurfs and I loved it!

Persuasive Text: "Sport is bad for you"

Don’t you agree that sport can ruin your education!

Your teacher might be teaching you how to calculate the perimeter of a football field but instead you are too busy thinking about your next football game!!

Clearly this doesn’t come into account to the sport teachers of the world that in sport you can break a leg and not the way your mum would say “break a leg honey”. The way I see it, every time you play sports you lose a tooth, break a bone, get a concussion or even pull a muscle!!!

No self-esteem is left for the kids who lose their game.

I’d far rather if kids could not play sport so they would not be depressed and very sad for an extremely long time.

“Oops” your child will say when they go to the toilet in their paints because their coach would not stop the game. Your child will be very embarrassed when they go to the bathroom in their pants and might get teased!!!

So think about it your child will never be happy playing sport they will be happy being banned from SPORT !!!

You Have To

You have to write to write a story,

You have to sketch to draw,

You have to have a life to live,

You have to care to love,

You have to look to like,

You have to think to speak,

You may sleep to dream.

The Beautiful Old Rickety House

The beautiful old rickety house in the countryside. With beating hearts of small baby birds and tall oak trees. The owners of this house passed years ago, but the house so breathtaking and so far away, this house is for spiders, cobwebs and old antique valuable things.

Flips and tricks

Some times you wonder what to do while you are bored, so me and my friends did some flips and tricks. I showed one of my friends how to get on the bars by swinging your legs up over the bar. She thought it was pretty cool and I thought it was pretty cool too. I love to teach others how to do stuff that they can't do.

My bed

My bed, warm and cosy, lies in the front window of my owners’ house. My owners re-make my bed every day while I am at “Doggy Day Care”! Then when I get home my bed is ready for me to nap. Whilst I am napping my owners put out some warm, fresh home-made bones. My best friend Molly the Maltese is really cool. She thinks she is worth a million paws, but I think I am worth as much as I was bought for.
