Street HockeyHockey is a sport that is very rough,
If you want to play it you have to be tough,
Whether its played in the road or out on the ice,
Not everybody that plays the game is nice,
Sometimes you play in your town and sometimes in another,
Whether its for you, your sister or your brother,
Hockey played around the world is the same,
And the cool part is that it’s Canada’s game!

The accident in this story that I’m about to tell you was the worst injury I’ve ever had:

When I was four years old, I went skating with my mom on a Sunday at the arena in Cranbrook.   My skate lace came undone and my mom skated me to the bench’s on the side of the rink.  My mom opened the door and  that is when I saw this hole where the spring was outstretched.  I stuck my finger in this hole and then my mom slammed the door shut.  The spring ripped  my fingernail off of my finger.  My mom rushed me to the hospital and then the doctors stitched my finger immediately.  I was crying a lot, but in the end, because I was so good, the doctor gave my a whole bunch of hockey cards. This  was my worst injury so far.

3D Character and Question Mark by 姒儿喵喵.What does blogging mean to me?  Well I am going to tell you right now.  Blogging has changed my way of writing in school.  Before blogging was introduced to me, I only wrote very small paragraphs in writing because I couldn’t think of anything else to write.  Now, I’m very descriptive in my writing all because of blogging.  A couple of things I love about blogging is that you can read other peoples writing on their blogs from around the world and if you like their writing, you can leave a comment telling them how good it was and maybe some positive feedback.  Another thing I like about blogging is that you can write a post about anything you want to write about.  That is what blogging means to me.   What or how has blogging done or changed about you? Please leave a comment and tell me.

Here is a blog in which this student wrote a post and told evryone what he thought about blogging and it is very well written

 

Thanks for reading :)

Christmas time is just about here and I’m so excited!  Christmas is my favourite holiday because you get together with your family and give gifts to each other and do stuff with them.  There is one Christmas tradition that we do and the story is called the Legend of the  Christmas Spider.  My mom has created a beaded Christmas spider to go along with the story.  This story has been around for many years.  Here is the legend of the Christmas spider:

Legend of the Christmas Spider

A long time ago in Germany a Mother was busily cleaning for

Christmas.  The spiders fled upstairs to the attic to escape the

broom.  When the house became quiet the spiders slowly crept

downstairs for a peek.  Oh what a beautiful tree!  In their

excitement they scurried up the tree trunk and out along each

branch.  They were filled with happiness as they climbed amongst

the glittering beauty.  But alas!  By the time they were through

climbing, the tree was completely shrouded in their dusty grey

spider web.  When Santa Claus came with the gifts for the

children and saw the tree covered with spider webs, he smiled

when he saw how happy the spiders were, but knew how broken-

hearted the mother would be if she saw the tree covered with

dusty webs.  So he turned the webs to silver and gold.  The tree

sparkled and shimmered and was even more beautiful than before.

That’s why we have tinsel on our tree and every tree should have

a Christmas Spider in it’s branches.

 

 Some other Christmas traditions we do are:

  • Instead of a mistletoe, we have a ornament called a Kissing ball
  • On Christmas Eve, all of us get to open one present
  • On Christmas day, we always do a puzzle
  • Every year, we rotate between me and my brother and see who gets to pick the Christmas tree
  • We set up these little Christmas Villages that are my Mom’s
  • On Christmas day, we make our secret No-Bake-Cookies(Yum!)

What do you do on Christmas holidays and if you have any traditions what are they? Leave a comment to tell me.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Their is a game called the Powder Game.  It is where you can powders and liquids together and make them explode or do other things.  Y0u can also be little players and give them powers by splashing a little bit of the powder or liquid on them, then you can fight other little people called fighters.  They can’t get any powers but they can kill you by kicking you.  Check it out and leave a comment telling me how awsome it is.  And the best part is it is allowed at school :)

Bye :)

 My book is called ‘The Trainer”:  This book is about a boy named Luke.  He wants to be the best at sports but he really sucks.  he tried everything he could to be the best but nothing worked.  In P.E. he is laughed at and made fun of.  That is until one day after school.  Luke is walking home from school when suddenly, a  man jumps out from a bush and says “ So, you’re not good at sports laddie?”  Luke nods up and down then Luke says “What is your name?”  The man says “The names Jack.”  Then Luke introduced himself.  Jack and Luke became pretty good freinds and Luke came to Jacks house to do some exercising so he could become better at sports.  After many weeks of training, Luke decides to test them out in gym class.  As soon as he walked in, the bullies said, “Hey everyone, lets see how bad Luke will suck today.”  But the bullies were very wrong.  They were playing dodgeball when the bullies through three dodge balls at him.  Luke did a back flip then nailed all three bullies in the chest at once.  Everyone was astounded at and started cheering at Luke.  Pretty soon after a few weeks, luke was the most popular boy in school and Jach lived with Luke.  Everyone lived a happy life afterward.

baby weddell seal-high hat beaver moustache manToday, we had a really cool event happen .  We talked to a scientist who is studying Weddell seals in the Antarctic through a web cast.  I was one of the three lucky kids to ask questions to Dr. Hawke. Dr. Hawke is part of Yes I can Science, the organization in charge of all this.  I messed up on my question but everything went well.  Our teacher is the coolest teacher ever!

What do you think it would be like to live in the Antarctic?  I think it would be like a frozen white dessert that iis very cold.
