Up the Mountain



On Sunday afternoon, my dad and I were able to climb Namsan mountain. As we walked along, we passed a police sergeant and behind him was a silver metal gate for cars to pass through. Just then, I saw some beautiful tall trees that had been cut down. What a tragedy! In fact, further along was a gigantic tree that had also been cut down,I felt sorry for them. Later that second, I noticed a surplus of recycled bottles.

Meanwhile, as we walked further we noticed a large group of some older generation coming towards us. It made me feel like it was a mini rampage.

The mountain was very difficult but manageable to climb. My dad and I both had enough energy to climb to the very top. We had a rival competition on who can run the fastest, until someone stopped us and asked us for directions. After we helped the man, he thanked my dad for his generosity and knowledge. Finally we headed home and had a big rest.

Chapter 4 The drought hits again

Ok this Thursday would have been great fun if there were no droughts. You know I moved to Castries yesterday well that place is full of disasters, first the tornado now the drought. I am really running out of energy, I have a friend called George Rampage I haven't seen him in four days and he was, the manager of safety moves. Safety moves is just when you walk reception kids home. He knew all of the reception kids so he had to lead all the managers. Tomorrow was gonna be a school holiday but I moved to Castries which is far from the, UK. Along with my Drought problem I think I'm gonna die if this does not end soon. Tomorrow I want to see just one storm that's all. Hopefully someone with knowledge will give us water.

Watch Out!

"Listen up tribe!"shouted Wallambimbi "that was a great clue but we must use our knowledge to find another". Meanwhile, George and his friends Sticken and Wicken had managed to find gigantic kangaroo tracks leading towards a huge pile of rocks just as they were running out of energy. Right in front of them was an interesting paw print which looked like it had been created recently. Suddenly George noticed more clues leading towards a shrub. "Hey fellas, this shrub looks strange, lets check it out". Just as George was approaching the bush a large black magpie swooped down and pecked him on the nose, sending him running for his mum.

Guess Who?

"These uninvited visitors have brought nothing but trouble. They have stolen our essential belongings and we must start a search" exclaimed Wallambimbi. The traditional tribe walked over the drought stricken sands to the pile of gnawed bones in search of more clues. Although they had not had a drink for five days, they were still very energetic, they were determined to solve the mystery. Stricken and Wicken walked over to a thin brown cracked tree. Guess who tripped over a log and shook the tree, causing the crown to fall onto his neighbour's head? It was Stricken!

Weather Homework: Weather and climate

Deserts

Q1. What is a desert? A desert is a region that has a shortage of water. Here only specialized plants grow.

Q2. There is a Desert in Africa called the Sahara this is a Desert near the equator so that Desert is equatorial.

Q3. The air in country's near the equator has air that settles downward, the country lies in subtropical land the air becomes warmer and drier as it falls, so the land remains dry with little rainfall

Q4. Deserts further away from the equator are also dry, because they are far from the Sea, and have Mountains in between the Desert. These Mountain barriers catch rainfall on their windward side while the leeward region remains dry. This is known as the "rainshadow" effect.

Q5 Deserts are very different two types are sand deserts which build quite a few sand dunes, and there are rock deserts consist mainly of bare rock.

Q6. Most Desert have some sort of animal and plant life. Desert plants may little or no leave surface or they have thorns and spines e.g Cactus is a desert plant. The animals must be able to go long periods without water. They get their liquid from plants or night dew e.g a camel is a animal that lives and, survives the desert.

My Trip (Mini Story)

A few days ago, I went on a short trip with my parents. Although, it was a long ride from my school to the airport, we managed to have enough time to catch the plane. In the plane, there were a lot of foreign visitors traveling with us and besides, one of them was my neighbour.I thought most of them were going to their favourite destination because they were carrying some of their essential need like maps, books and sun hats and many more.

It was roughed throughout the flight , but I still enjoyed listening music from my i-touch while reading my book that I brought. Suddenly, there was an announcement from the captain that we were about to land, however, it might be delayed for a while due to traffic condition at the tarmac. Finally, we landed and all of us were rushing to get off the plane as well as collecting our luggage.

chapter three The tornadoe, in Castries. (diary of Lilly Admara)


On Wednesday, the 10th of March on an Easter holiday, my parents decided we would have to move because there was a drought here in Saudi Arabia. So we had to travel to Castries, the capital of ST Lucia, I brought extra water,in case of any more droughts, I thought that Castries ought to be great!!! But when we reached Castries, there was an allowing tornado at work!!! I ran and ran until I was whipped up into that thing, there were other visitors inside, and I'm telling you no one reported that tornado as their favorite. Mom and Dad were so scared, they ran to safety, but they weren't as foolish as me to run towards the tornado, and they were safe. When the tornado was over I had to be sent to hospital for, I had mud and dust inside my lungs!

clues

At the camp site the next day chief Wallambimbi gathered the tribe. "Everyone, I guarantee that we will get our things back, we will find those guilty hooligans!" One of the tribe members exclaimed "lets start looking for clues!" "Great idea! Everyone did you hear that? "said Wallambimbi.
They decided to have a guard at every section of the savannah. Suddenly they heard a vague whistle from afar. The guards looked to the distance and saw a large bird flying across the horizon with a familiar crown in it's beak. "Everyone follow that bird!" yelled Wallambimbi. They ran to the base of a dried old tree where they found a pile of gnawed bones. "This could be a clue which will help us to solve the mystery".
