Composition: A Gift I've Always Wanted


 


   If there is any gift in the world I could have, it would be a brand new scooter. I would ask my granny to buy this for me. 
    The scooter is pink, grey, and very sparkly. The scooter is a perfect gift because it is great for when I want to play outside. . I am not sure of the price, but it may cost about $100. 
    I think I deserve this special gift because I have worked hard all term. Also, I have been very respectful to my parents. I hope that someday I am lucky enough to own a pink, sparkly scooter!

Dog Tired



One day, an old tired dog wandered into Noah’s yard. The dog didn’t look hungry or sick, just very tired.

Noah gave the dog a few pats on the head. The dog followed Noah into the house, slowly walked down the hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.

An hour later, the dog woke up, walked to the door, and Noah let him out.

The next day the dog was back. Once again the dog followed Noah into the house and slept in the corner for an hour. It was the same story the next day, and the next, and the next one after that.

Noah was very curious. “What’s up with this dog?” he wondered. He had an idea.

Noah pinned a note to the dog’s collar:
To the owner of this dog,
Do you know that your dog comes to my house every afternoon and has a nap? Why? .....Noah

The next day the dog came to Noah’s house with a new note pinned to its collar:
He lives in a home with 6 children, 3 under the age of 2. He's trying to catch up on his sleep. He can’t find a quiet spot here. Neither can I! Can I come with him tomorrow?

Tourism Tourism means people travelling to places outside of their usual home.  A tourist is anyone traveling for fun, business or visiting relatives. A tourist must stay at least 24 hours but for less than one year. There are different types of tourists. First, a domestic tourist is a person who spends at least one night away from their normal home but still within their own country. Some people call this a ‘staycation’.  Then, there are regional tourists. This is a tourist who travels within a certain region. For example, a Barbadian visiting Jamaica.  Suppose you really wanted to visit New York and see the Statue of Liberty. Then you would be an international tourist. An international tourist is someone who travels across international borders. For example, travelling from Barbados to the United States.  Tourism is great because it creates many jobs for people who work in hotels. It also allows us to see many places all around the world.  What does ‘tourist’ ...

Daniel : So Hana, tell me, do you cook much? Hana : Yes, I always cook. I often cook with my roommate, and we always make Chinese of Japanese food. How about you? Daniel : Well, I don’t really cook that often. I’m really busy during the week. So, I always just get something at the shop and get that. But, during the weekends, I always cook during the weekends because I really like making food. That’s what I do. Hana : So, do you ever eat out?
