Gum Should be Allowed At School

I think gum shouldn’t be allowed at school because….

Firstly, children would get addicted to it.

Secondly, children would throw it on the ground.

Lastly, it would give children germs.

So that’s why I think gum shouldn’t be allowed at school.

THE BIG WAVES

I felt like a secret agent who had to breathe under water for a l o o o o o n g time!

"OK let's get into two separate lines, and do it quietly. READY, SET, GO!" called Sean.

I had to go on a boogie board, but I first had to put the leash around my wrist. Then back and forth everyone had a turn on the boogie boards. After that Sean told Joann, Carlos, Frankie and me to get small floating boards. We had to push the floating boards backward and forward like a machine in order to make waves. Agnes and the rest of the class had to swim to the end of the pool with waves heading their way. Next we went under the waves like a submarine at night time. After that we had to say good-bye to Sean and Chris. Having to learn about how to swim and about being safe in the water is cool and FUN!

Baseball

Have you ever hit a ball so hard that your friends and teacher couldn't even catch it? I did! It started with a cold morning. We had a baseball session. It was totally AWESOME! Room 5 had one Room 6 had nil and it was my friend Taniela's turn to bat. I could see him concentrating on the ball. Everyone was slient and when he swung the bat the ball went flying into the air! Everyone was shouting "Go Taniela." He ran as fast as he could. The ball bounced on the ground. Taniela ran to first base, then second base, then third base, then home! everyone shouted "Yeah!" and it made my ears sore. It was my turn. I clutched the bat and was trying to find an open spae on the field. I went for a hit. The ball flew in the air and I was running like the wind! Mrs Manickum and Room 6 couldn't even catch it. I was at third base and I had to run to home base. My heart was beating faster than ever. I ran to home and then the bell rang. I touched "home" and Aaron said "Safe!". Room 5 won and shouted "Yeah!" That was the coolest sports day EVER!
