The Presentation at The Temple

The Presentation at The Temple

There was a rule among the Jews that the first born child in the family had to be taken over to the Temple in Jerusalem. So when Jesus was forty days old Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the Temple. There his parents made an offering to show that he belonged to the Lord. For an offering Joseph bought two young pigeons to place upon the altar of the Temple.

Term Three Highlights

Term Three Highlights

My highlights for this term is doing Singing Cup because I won the year six trophy. Singing Cup was also a challenge because I had to sing in front of everyone in the school, but I still enjoyed it. 

Another highlight was having Miss Huls as my teacher because we do A LOT of cool art and do a lot of singing as a class. 

A challenge for me is meeting new people and getting to know them because I am really shy and I have trouble getting to know people. Next term I am excited about working on Elite Special Forces of the Learner Licenses.

The thing that I have learnt more about this term is that so many people in the senior hubs have so many talents like singing, playing guitar, drums and so many other things.  

                                                                 

African Art

What is African Art?

African art is away to show their emotions and cultures on a piece of paper. African art has been around for 2,000 years and still is recognized. The lady's go out and find some things to mix into paint. This picture I drew is three lady's holding baskets.

Why We Should Be Thankful.

Why We Should Be Thankful.

Have you ever noticed that kids are normally upset because they either don’t get what they want or lost there high score on there video game. But just think about the poor people they only have one whole outfit and hardly eat food or drink water. Not only they have to earn food but it's not that simple, it not like getting a job and getting loads of money every hour. They have to find food. They have to swim around garbage in hopes they will find food that will nourish them.

Money can’t buy happiness love or joy.

Its not about how rich you are Its about your happiness your life and how you live. Its what's in your heart that counts, and money is certainly not part of it.

52-Storey Tree House (Book Review) Term 3

Book Review:

53-Storey Tree-House

This book I have been reading is nonfiction.

This book has adventure humor and it is based on two boys named  Andy and Terry.

This story 53-Storey Tree House is written by Andy Griffiths and Illustrated by Terry Denton.

The 52-Storey Tree House is about two boys Andy and Terry in this book they have added 13 new storeys in their storehouse and have to solve not only one problem but five.

They find one of their close friends Jill sleeping in her house.

They try everything they could to wake her up but they didn’t succeed. So Andy and terry thought that Jill needed to go to a prince to wake her up just like in the fairy tales so they did. Lucky for them Jill lived near the Vegetable Kingdom were a prince was. But Andy and Terry didn’t think before they went to the kingdom and they got into a sticky situation.  

One of the reason I love reading Andy Griffiths books are because not only are they interesting they also have a great amount of humor in them. They are not sad or boring they really have that humor which I think is the most important key to a children's book.. And I think this book is readable for seven year old's and up.

Why We Should Have A Dogs At School

Why I think we should 
have dogs at school

I think dogs would be helpful at school because dogs could help us with our problems, for example if a child was sad they could pat him/her. Another thing dogs would be help for is down in the junior school some of the kids don't know how to read. They could read to the dog so they get more practice with there reading. When you have a dog in the room you fell warm and happy. And you could pat the dog while working so you don't fell so much stress. Thoughs are some reasons why we should have a dog in our class room. 

Sacrifice

Sacrifice means to let go of something or someone, for example Jesus sacrificed his life so God would forgive the sins.

Sacrificing plays a really huge part in the Bible.

One of the first stories, about Cain and Abel begins with two sacrifices, and the death of Jesus was a sacrifice

(As many of you know)

A sacrifice is not anything anyone enjoys, but more often we hear the word “sacrifice” everyday.

For example we could sacrifice a cup of coffee every morning to save up money to go to a holiday. But that is different.

Jesus gave his life for us just so God would forgive the people who had sin to God and Jesus.That is why Jesus is the ultimate sacrifice.
