What is Winter

What is winter?

A battle of snowflakes raining down,
A sparkly icey lawn melting as the sun moves,
A frosty ground full of frozen water, a melting snowflake slowly falling down over the mountains,
A rain storm slowly turning into snow,A white morning with hot chocolate waiting on the table.

My Argument

No! I don’t think children should be allowed to bring toys to school.
I DON’T think children should be allowed to bring toys to school because if you do then they might get lost in the playground or someone might have seen them and picked them up and kept the toy!
I also DON’T think children should be allowed to bring toys to school because while you are playing with them on the mat or while we are meant to be working it could distract other people because they are wanting to play with them and if they start talking and the whole class starts talking and then no one will get their work done.

The Star Fishes

One day a long, long time ago there were seven little fishes and there mother. One day the mother fish said to her little fishes that Tataraimaka was out fishing today so stay close to the rocks. The fishes were having so much fun that they forgot about there mothers warning and Tataraimaka fished the seven little fishes up with his big net. The seven little fishes were crying so hard that they made the sea salty with there tears. Tane, the sun god, felt so sorry for the little fishes that he pulled the fishes up into the sky and they became starfishes. All the fishes were named except for one little fish which will be left nameless for a lonely child. That child’s name would be that nameless fish’s name and the fishes would look after that lonely child for life. Now the stars are called Matariki and when they are seen in early June it is the start of the Maori New Year.

Title: Series of unfortunate Events. The Bad Beginning.
Author: Lemony Snicket.
Illustrator: Lemony Snicket.
This story is about three orphans whose parents died and are now living with an evil man who makes them do all the jobs like cooking and cleaning and he tricks Violet into marrying him and she is only 14.
I liked this story because it was interesting and it explained what the unusual words meant.
I would recommend it to girls and boys age 8 to 15.
