Six Baby Rabbits

This morning in Room 13, Jo and James brought in baby rabbits. The girls have different bottoms than the boys have.
Tim

They are so cute. I love the boys. Most of the black ones were boys.
Eleanor

The cutest one is the white one.
Danny

They are nice because they liked me.
Taylah

I held the brown one. It liked me because it was crawling up my arm and over my shoulder.
Jeremy

I like to hold rabbits because they are gentle and quiet.

Who is this cute little fella Elle?

Hi everyone

Hunter is very cute. He lives at Deonie's place. He loves playing tug of war with Madison. Hunter likes squeaky toys. When I squeak it he comes to me.

What did you do on Melbourne Cup day?

Tim

I was playing with my friend Tom at the club. We played darts at the club. I watched the Melbourne Cup day racing on TV. I went for Viewed and he won the big cup. You should have seen it, it was so big! We are moving on Friday and I had to wash and paint the walls at home to get ready to go to our new house.

Luke

I went to play footy at my cousin's house in town. After we played footy we played soccer and then I went home.

Eleanor

At lunchtime we had sausages, flat chips, salad and we had cordial for our drink. I tasted the flat chips for the first time and they tasted delicious. At the shops I bought a medium sized 'Snooks' one for me and one for my sister Maddison. A snook has fury hair, it has a hook so you can hang it up. It 's a toy. Mine is named Wooige and my sister's is named Frenzley, it's a long word actually, and I don't know how to spell it. I watched the race I went for Prize Lady and Guyno but Viewed won.

Taylah

I fell out of bed and got hurt! I have a sore hip. I stayed home and played a Bob the Builder game on the TV. I watched the race. I picked Moatze but it didn't win.

The Little Guys

Cory

These little guys are going to take the green key and lock all their good stuff up. There's a tiger and an elephant in a cupboard and they are going to take them out and put them in their space ship.

The Little Guys

Eleanor
These little guys are aliens. They stole the green key. Inside a cupboard there is a cat skeleton. It has been there for ever. When somebody opens the door to steal their stuff the cat skeleton goes boo! The little aliens are going to lock the cat skeleton up in a cage with the green key because he is too old to look after their stuff. The aliens will get all their stuff and put it in a bag and keep it in their space ship. They will live happily alienly ever after!

Who are these little guys and what are they doing?

If I was a snail

If I was a snail I would like to eat cabbage. I would let the slug eat leaves and radishes. I would go for a walk to the trees to see the birds. I would hide in my shell because the birds would reckon I am meat! If the birds did eat me they would say 'Yuk' because I would taste like cabbage and I would be slimy. If I was a snail I would have a rest in a leaf. If I saw a Snail Zombie I would say 'go away' because I don't want garden snails to turn into snail Zombies because they are scary. I would come out when it is raining because I like it and I will come back in when the sun comes back out. I would like to come out at night too.

What have you been reading ?

Taylah

I read a book called 'The Tree House' by Gordon Winch and illustrated by Greg Gaul. I like this book because it was funny when they fell on the trampoline.

Tim

I read a story called 'The Land of Many Colours'. The story is about, blue people, green people and purple people. They had a war. All the houses got broken and all the toys got ruined. A little dusty kid came and told the people to stop. The people listened to him. They fixed the houses and grew some plants and fixed the toys. They stopped the war and then everyone was friends. I didn't like the story because it was too boring!

Eleanor

I read 'Grandma's Project' written Patrica Almada, illustrated by Becky Radtke. It was about a grandma who did some clay making for a secret birthday surprise. She was making clay people, clay birds and things to put on a cake for the Mama's birthday. I like the story because it was a pretty birthday cake.

Jeremy

We read a story called 'The Land of Many Colours' . The story was about blue people, green people, and purple people. They had food, animals, toys and houses of their favourite colour. They had a fight because they didn't share. I liked it because a little child came and helped them become friends.

Hi Everyone,

Ths morning I have been drawing pictures of snails on snail word picture page. I really like it because I love drawing.

From Jeremy

Hi Dad ( A message to Mal)

Hi Dad,
It's me, Eleanor. I'm glad this is the second week and there is only one more week until you get back. Did you see the nice black snake again? I really, really, really miss you so much. At school yesterday I was good. I made a Pink Panther at art. Today I 'm going back to art again and I am going to play music with Chris. We are going to do swimming lessons for the morning. We are doing choice time in the afternoon , but I don't know what I am making today. We did assembly on Monday there was a big kid who won the good work certificate, his name is Jack. He finished all of his work.
I love you Dad
