The Day He Died

The day he Died …………….

“Go fetch it boy,” comes from the end of the park, as a dog springs to his feet and sprints after a ball.  His owner spreads out his legs and flops onto the ground. After a few seconds, dog comes panting back slobber dripping all down his mouth and tail wagging. As soon as he approaches his owner he drops down the slobber all over ball and gives his owner a big slobbery lick. He jump up and then goes come on boy and snapped on his lead and goes home.

I see this every day until one day he stops coming and that night on the news, on the main road right next to the park, a dog was killed in a serious car accident. He says that a car had lost control and spun into the other land and smashed two car and then spun into the park.  Then the reporter said in a quiet voice, that a dog and owner had also been caught up in there.  It said the owner was running with his dog until he heard a whole lot of car horns and people slamming on brakes and then he turned around to see car coming towards him and then all of a sudden his dog came up and shoved his owner out of the way. The dog got dragged under the car they say that the dog was ripped and torn and they say that the owner is in a critical condition in the hospital.

The next day I saw flower scattered all over part of the road and bright red drops of blood. In remembrance of the dog they put up a statue of the dog and renamed the park Bingo Park as for the dog was called Bingo.

The Best Part Of Me

The best part of me are my eyes because they are a light blue they also have a tinge of green in them I like my eye because I’m the only one in the family that has that colour. I get them from my blue eyes from my dad. I think that it is cool that there is a tinge of green in my eyes because the green blends in with the blue

I love my eyes because they are the only part of my body that lets me see the world and  discover new things. I like them because they stand out on my face because they are the only bit of colour on my face that shines out.

I enjoy playing sport because my eyes let me see everything the finish line, the goal and  the competitors and I especially love my supporter, they come to all of my event. I also love to see my self representing parkvale school in the flash uniforms.    

I like my eye because it is a very special part of me and  it is not like any other part can do the exact same thing.

Bar Graph vs Line Graph

We had to sort out the data into the right kind of graph either into the line or the bar

Bar Graph: A bar graph is a chart that uses bars to show comparisons between different categories of data.

Line Graph: A graph that uses points connected by lines to show how something changes in value (as time goes by, or as something else happens). Based on one set data.

Below is a list of different types of graphs.  Cut and paste them into the column you think they belong in.
