snail-an acrostic poem

S nails might slip off your hand when you pick them up.
N ow when I find a slimy snail I leave it .
A hungry snail eats green juicy vegetables.
I like snails because they are very slimy.
l emon and Garlic is a tasty treat for a snail.

Snail- An Acrostic Poem

S nails are slippery and slimy, even ugly.
N eed fresh vegetables.
A snail lays little tiny baby eggs.
I n the garden there is a slimy snail.
L emon and garlic is a best treat on a snail.

Dear Mr Burton

Thank you for all you have done for our Catholic school. I appreciate all the wonderful swimming lessons you have given us.

I really enjoyed gliding because I like to slowly flow along the surface of the water. I also really enjoyed floating, kicking and sculling, I enjoyed that because I can see the diference when I scull fast and kick fast or when I scull slow and when I kick fast.

In the past few I have learnt some amazing skills and I would like to tell you some things I have learnt. I have learnt how to float, float, scull, and scull gliding, starfish on my back and stomach. I know how to do the Turtle and I know how to roll around in the water. That's all I know how to do. I hope you will teach me more marvellous swimming lessons.

I feel pleased that you brought that pool to our school. You are mt life saver and you are my hero. Mr Burton I will miss you and so will my class, Room 4.

God bless you Mr Burton and I hope you will never forget us,
Room 4.

Yours sincerely
Alecia

Dear Mr Burton,

Thank you for teaching me how to swim and teaching Room4 how to swim. Especially I enjoyed spending time with you and I would like to say thank you for bringing this warm pool. I like to make a little ball and then flip like a button. He! He! He! I like to do that. Also like to do a starfish on my back and on my stomach too. What I learned from you is how to be a good swimming teacher like you. Alecia and I can do a mermaid. I can't wait to show you Mr Burton we showed it to Mrs Pole on Friday and she said that it was good.

Yours Sincerely
Kanesini

They were hard but we managed to win against them .Also when I was at home we had SAUSAGE SIZZLE it was delicious .

Dear Richie

We miss you, we all hope you get better soon and come back to Room 4.

We’ve been doing a lot about the new swimming pool I know how to do lots of things in the warm water like a starfish, floating and Turtle. I know how to, roll around in the water. I wish you were here in the new swimming pools.

Last Friday we had a treat, the treat was ice block and Moro bars, it was yummy, VERY yummy.

My personal news is that I had my first Holy Communion we all got a medal and we had a delicious treat.

Last Saturday I went to the Warriors game. I had snack burgers at KFC it was fantastic. The number on the score board was 18-6 the Warriors won it, it was at Mt Smart Stadium.

Anyway I hope you get better very soon and I hope you will write back to your class Room 4.

Dear Richie

My sweetest cousin ever, I hope you get better. We felt sorry for you when you had your operation. But you were brave.


Richie at school we had a Junior Mass with Room 1, 2, 3 and 4. I had a part in mass. I was excited and nervous at the same time. I was in the Gospel with Alecia. The actors were Patrick, Joshua and Paul. Patrick was the bad boy and Joshua was the good boy, as usual. When we’d finished our Junior Mass we had Juicy Ice blocks and Chocolate Moro. It was divine.

Richie, I would like to tell you something else. Do you know the Jesus dance? We showed it in front of the whole school. We were the first ones to stand up and do the Jesus dance. We were so nervous. Then it was Seuati’s turn to play on the ukulele.

Richie I’m going to tell you some personal stuff. My personal stuff is my dad came back from Israel. He bought me some presents. My presents were a shiny bag and a Mickey Mouse T-Shirt that says “Hello from Jerusalem” and a shower thing. He bought me a hat as well.

Richie I went to my cousin’s house and her name is Jolynn and her two sisters are Amelia and Silia. We played outside on the swing and we played Ring a of Rosy. It was lots fun. Also we ate chicken, potato and we had a drink called pitch black drink but it was actually grape drink. It was really delicious. I hope you come back to school because you are my best cousin ever and I’ll never stop thinking about you because I love you


Love from your cousin
Rosrine.
