Tonight I'm Going to See a Big Fire

Yesterday morning I woke up and Adam and I went to my friend Rianna's house to play. We played lots of games. Adam was playing with lots of girl's toys like Barbies and I asked him 'why are you playing with girl toys?' and he said 'I like to play with girl toys because I like the Barbie's dress.' I played with the kitchen sets and all the games, boys and girls games.

Then we ate lunch. We ate dal rice and chappati. When we were finished we played for a little while more then Jaya came and we went home. When we got home we watched Star Wars. My favourite is the small robot because he's funny.

This morning we went to see the 'Frog Prince' movie. I liked it. After that we picked up Vaugn from his house and then we went to eat lunch. Then we played in the ball place (soft play gym). Tonight I'm going to see a big fire for Holi. Teacher said they light fires for Holi because...I forget.
Adam isn't coming because he's too tired and he wants to go to bed.



What I Learned Today: How The Moon Shines

Normally the moon is just a big round grey ball. How it shines is, the Sun shines on top of the moon, like if you get a ball and shine a torch on top of it, like that. The moon looks like it's shining but the light is coming from the Sun.

Monkey Water Pistol

Yesterday when we went downstairs to play we were playing hide and seek. Mihika came. She said 'let's play fighting.' Then Adam came and said 'I will win.' The three of us were fighting. Adam was very strong he fought with us and he won. Adam won all the games. Except the last game we won.

In school today Adam put down his bottle and bag in the class and came to the garden to play. He was squirting everybody with his monkey shaped water pistol. His teacher told him to bring the water pistol to school because they were going to play 'Holi.'

Holi is a festival when you play with water pistols and colours. Adam made so many friends with his water pistol because everyone was saying 'Shoot me! Shoot me!' He shot me many times.

For snack today we had something I didn't like. It was like banana custard. It was banana custard. When everyone was eating I went and put the plate in the bucket with the custard still on it.


What I Learned Today: How People Talk

There's a round thing inside your neck so when you talk, if it goes loose, it makes the sound lower and if it's tighter it makes the sound higher. To talk you breathe out and you use your tongue and teeth and lips to make sounds.

They Always Steal My Water Bottle

Last night I dreamed that I woke up in the morning and saw mummy and daddy sitting on the terrace watching my brother Adam flying. He was wearing a magic costume and he had a cape. He could fly because the suit was very very magic and made him fly. Then I went on the terrace and Adam gave me the costume and told me to fly. When I put it on I flew high with Adam sitting on my back.

After the dream I got up, it was still night so I just waited and played for a little while. When I looked out the window it was morning. Then I went out and started playing in the living room. I saw Jolie (our dog) eating one of Adam’s toys so I got a stick and pretended to smack Jolie so she left the toy and Adam took it.

When I went to school I saw my friends playing so I went to play with them. One girl from my class took Adam away. I was playing with five boys. I stopped playing and went to look for Adam. I found him and kept him in a place where no one goes and told to wait there. I called some boys to look after Adam and I went to see if some people were coming to steal my water bottle because they always steal my water bottle.

When I got back I told the boys to go and play so they were happy. I only called one boy and told him to stay with Adam and look after him. I told him if any girl comes to steal Adam you come and call me I’m playing in the garden. A girl came and she told me that Adam is sitting on the wall, and asked who put him there. I said I put him there to look after him.

I put Adam in line and we all went to class. Adam went to eat snacks. Then we went for concert practice. Jaya (my nanny) was watching me. I saw her and went home with her.



What I Learned Today: How Plants Eat

First the water goes and the plant sucks all the water up and then it drinks the water. The plant sucks the mindrals up through the water. The sun shines on top of the leaves then the water goes up and comes out of the leaves like gas.
