Characters: Bobbie, Peter and Phyllis. I like them because they were brave.

Plot: The children move to the country after their father is arrested.

My opinion:. I like the book, my favourite part was when they stopped the train, because it was exciting.

I would recommend this book because it has a happy ending.

Back to School

img_20160907_071321I started year 1 on Tuesday.  The best thing was meeting my friends again.  I also enjoyed learning about Karate in collective worship, I got to hold the 2nd grade brown belt in front of the whole school.

My Score !!

On Saturday I went swimming with Mummy and Daddy, I did some brilliant brilliant swimming, I swam 5 and 6 metres and I even pushed the float with one of my swimming toys which go underneath the water, and its a shark and it spins ( it isn’t a real shark).  After swimming we went to the Swan Centre in Eastleigh, we did some Ten Pin bowling, I really loved it because I won, daddy did really badly.

20160911_132401.jpgToday I went with Granny Karen and Rix to Hundred Acre Woods, we had a picnic, then I played in the play park and went for a walk and a bike ride.  We found some creepy crawlies including a black beetle, which was actually a dung beetle.

Next week I will be writing a book review on the Railway Children.

Summer Holidays

Schools going to start tomorrow, I know this is called summer holidays but today the teachers are practicing for tomorrow to make sure that they can teach the children properly.

I  am very very excited for tomorrow because i’m going to be in year one and going to see Mr. Arthur.

But before that i am going to give you a summery of my holidays, because it was the summer holidays ( get it?)

At the very start of my summer holidays i was going to ultimate activity camp.

at camp  I did:

  • Cooking
  • made new friends
  • Swimming
  • played dodge ball
  • played football

plus did lots and lots of other things.  I would tell others to go to this camp as it was really really really good!. Sadly no photos of camp as cameras weren’t allowed.

20160822_192508.jpgAfter Camp I went to Grandma and Grandads farm in Shropshire.  The house is called Coppice House Farm.

20160822_192055.jpgAt Coppice House Farm I went walking in the fields, dug20160828_102030.jpg potatoes, Watched grandad harvest the wheat, cooked with grandma, and explored Grandads woods.wp-1473092763286.jpgwp-1473092663975.jpgwp-1473092791440.jpg

 

 

Fuzzy Felt

Today I made this fuzzy felt picture of the solar system, including Phobos and Dimos, a comet and the dwarf planet Haumea.  The Fuzzy  felts are fun to play with because they stick on the board, my mummy remembers playing with this exact set when she was young.  

My Ludlow Castle adventure

Mummy thought that as it was such a nice day that we could go and visit ludlow Castle.  We got on a bus from the car park which took us all the way round the town.  We have explored the castle, the best bit was climbing all the spiral staircase’s, they are like a spiral galaxy.

New Elements 

Niobium      -Nh 113

Moscovium -Mc 115

Tennessine  -Ts 117

Ogannesson  – Og 118

These are the new names for the super heavy elements of the periodic table.

They used to be called.

Ununtrium, Ununpentium, Ununseptium and Ununoctium before they were created by scientists.
They are now looking for elements 119 and up.

New Exoplanet

Hello all.

There is a new exoplanet discovered called Proxima B.

My drawing.

It’s really exciting because it’s like earth and in its Stars goldilocks zone.

These means it could have life on it.

It’s even further than Planet Nine (a possible new planet in our solar system)

so will take a long time to get there.

I want to invent the new engine so I can travel to Proxima B when I am grown up.
