A New Pet

Today at 12.30am,  I went to the SPCA and got a new pet.  I got a dog.  He was a black and white dog.  His breed was a “Siberian Husky”.  I only got him when he was still a puppy.  When I got him, he was in a box with big round holes in it.  I was so excited to get home so  I nearly dropped the box on the footpath..

When I got home, my mum remembered that I should take care of it and feed it.  She had also bought some toys for him to play with.  Then I named him Lotus.  I called him that that because my dad has a car called the “Lotus exige” that has black stripes and white paint.  When I showed my dad Lotus, he made a collar that had his car on it and it said “Too Fast For You”.  Then he wrote TFFY for it.  The next 2 days I went out and took him out for a walk around the park.  When I stopped to tie my shoes, Lotus ran away and went somewhere I could not find him.  The line was still on him.  He was dragging it somewhere I would not know.

Then I ran to my house and told my mum “Lotus has run away from me!”.  My mum said “Where is he”.  Then I pointed out to some trees and said “ Over There”.  When she looked, she called the SPCA and told them to help us find. Then they replied to my mum and said “We are coming”.  My dad told me to come and look for him in his Lotus while my mum made posters and put them on the wall.  When we went past we saw a dog like lotus but was a bulldog.  So we went home.  On the next day my mum shook a packet of biscuits and saw a dog running back home to us with a red collar with the same as Lotus’s collar.  So I ran down stairs and opened the door with a big surprise.  It was Lotus.

Then I carried him upstairs and fed him his favourite biscuits and some water.  He was eating and drinking  them very fast.  After that my mum put down the posters and got a good sleep because she was tired of talking to all thoses people.  Then Lotus got a good night’s rest next to me so I can protect him.  I also taught him some new tricks in the morning.

My little sister

I read a book called ‘My little sister.’ This book is  about two little girls playing and looking after each other. They like to play in the sandpit and they like to play on the swing. They play in their playhouse and they read books then they go to sleep. They always look after each other. They like to do everything together and they never fight. They sleep with their dolls.  When I finished reading I wrote sentences about some pictures from the book.  I love reading this book.

The Incredible Whale

The Incredible Whale

Far away under the deep blue sea lived a humble and brave whale and he wasn't afraid of anything. He could fight off sharks and rip open the nets that captured his friends but he'll come back in cuts and bumps. The sea creatures were so proud of him that they made him a royal guard to serve the king and queen.

One night he was guarding the front gate all by himself because they were all having a party for the king and queen’s daughter.  Then a fisher net came down to catch him and it did. The whale couldn't get out and when he reached the top of the ocean he could breath but he pretended to be dead. When the fishers got to shore, the whale hopped out and he got trapped in a garden maze but he knew that he could not stop. He kept on going and he finally reached the other side and dived back into the sea because he knew it will be time to go home.

He got back just in time for dinner. He had a really good adventure but that wasn't his last.

Skin

Healthy skin

What is skin?

Skin is the thin  layer  of the tissue  forming the  natural  outer covering of our body. Skin is the  largest organ in the body . Subcutaneous tissue is the innermost layer of the skin located under the dermis and consisting mainly of fat. Subcutaneous fat acts as a shock absorber and heat insulator, protecting underlying tissues from cold and mechanical trauma.  Did you know that the sweat glands and  the  minute mussels attached to hair follicles originate in subcutaneous tissue?

Why  is our skin important?

Our skin is important because it protects everything inside our body. It's important to protect our skin from the sun; so we do not get skin cancer. If we protect our skin, we will have less wrinkles and less freckles and beauty marks.

Our skin is important  because  it protects  all our veins, blood vessels, arteries, and tissue. Skin is also a waterproof covering that keeps us cool in the hot, and it also moderates our temperature.

How do we take care of our skin?

We take care of our skin by washing ourselves properly. I would also recommend that we use a cleanser and moisturizer that do not contain harsh chemicals. I've also heard that sun screen in excess has cancer causing agents so be wary. Try to stay away from the drying agents and too much sun ( sun is healthy but burning is not).

What happens if we don’t take care of our skin?

If we don’t take care of our skin we could get sore skin, warts, pimples and more skin problems. Once it gets worst we will  have  skin cancer and more skin problems therefore we really need to take good care of our skin.
