Chocky and Snowy

Chocky


Snowy

They were young, they were loved and they had lots of friends. Me, Courtney, Sarah and Julie loved them like they were their own.

Their got a virus called myxomatosis and I did what was best for them and the vet put them down on different days and times.

It was hard but I stayed with them so they wouldn't be scared.

Mum and I bought a plant for Snowy


We have to get one for Chocky yet.

Wet and Wild

Last Tuesday, the 17th of November 2009, Mum, K, L, T and I went to Wet and Wild. We were in Queensland for a holiday.

First we went to the wave pool. L, K and I went into the wave pool. I was extraordinarily happy. When the waves were on I got hit by the waves and T came in but Mum didn't.

After the wave pool we all had lunch. I had chips and a soft drink.

Then we went on the Mammoth fallsride. mum, K, T and I went on the ride, but L was scaredt to go on. I had a few butterflies going on the ride,but them in. The ride was very high up. We all got in a rubber tube and we went down the slide. It was cool.

Next we went to Calypso Beach. I went really fast. You go on a hollow rubber tube and you can sit in any position in the tube and you float along. We got off at the wrong stop, so we walked in the water to the next one.

We went from Calypso Beach to Buccaneer Bay. I went down the orange slide on my tummy, it was pretty cool. Then K and I went over to the squirty area and I got squirted in the ear. Then I got a frozen coke and we all went back to their place.

I loved it. My favourite but was going on the Mammoth Falls. Next time I want to go on the Rapid River.

Pompeii

Last week I went to see the Pompeii exhibit at the museum. We couldn't take photos, but I drew some pictures about what I saw.

Nature Study 2

We looked at the front garden, but we weren't allowed to talk. I had to see, feel and hear what I could and then I wrote down some things.

One word for what I heard - birds
Two words for what I saw - wasps and insects eating leaves
Three words for what I felt - web brushing against me, aphids they were rough like a flew with big lumps on it and insects bites on the big tree.

I drew a picture of one of the flowers in the garden and put some leaves in my nature journal.

Nature Study 1

We went to the creek. I was trying to catch a frog and fell in the water.
At the end I tried to catch a lizard.

I saw a family of lizards, birds and trees. I captured a leech and I captured it because I thought it was a type of fish.


We looked up about leeches and here's some information we found.
Leeches
Leeches are blood sucking parasites. There are over 600 types of leeches and their bodies are divided into 34 segments. The Australian land leech has two jaws, but most leeches have three jaws.
