homeschooling day 18

Today, I read something about bears that surprised me.  A bear, such a heavy animal, has an interesting living way.  When they want to escape from the hunters and they are on the spruce tree, they will just jump down, scaring the hunter.  And when they hit the ground, their muscles will contract and they will run away.  I really couldn't imagine that such a heavy animal could do such amazing tricks.  One more thing that I learnt is when you are near a bear, your attitude is completely different than the bear's.  Lets say if you are brave, the bear will be timid.  And when we are fearful, the bear knows what to do... So, this is today's journal, tomorrow I will be posting as usual.

Chinese new year / homeshooling

This week, I will be going to have my homeschooling until Wednesday, because it is the Chinese New Year holiday.  So, I will not be having my written narration posted on my blog this Friday.  I hope to get a lot of ang paos within this few days.  Wish all of you a Happy Chinese New Year! :)

homeschooling day 16

One of the stories that I read this week is about Africa.  The story says that one day, a boy was bored and started picking beautiful stones.  He found a shiny rock and brought it back for his mother.  His mother gave the rock to her neighbor, who admired it.  Turns out, it was a diamond.  When they went to the spot, they saw hundreds of diamonds scattered on the ground.  So, the British started building a diamond mine.  Speaking about diamonds, if I have them thenI would sell some of them and use the money for charity.  I feel that the diamonds should belong to the africans.  Every Friday I would have written narration on my blog.  I hope you readers enjoy my journal up to now.

primary school

Today, my mother  and I went to my primary school to collect money at my brother and sister's class.  There, I saw Zhi Kai, my old friend.  We were talking away until I saw Aunty Cheam.  I was surprised, I did not think that it will link up like that, but at least Zhi Kai and I get to meet each other today.  And what's more our school had quite a few more upgrades, I missed the school and I hope that they would upgrade until the school is better and better.

road taring

This afternoon we could hardly go anywhere because some workers came and tar the road at my neighborhood.  This made my piano lesson postponed, so I am so unhappy :( But after a few hours of taring, the road looks so new and beautiful.

new year biscuits

This afternoon,my family (exempt my father) and my friend's family baked quite a lot of pineapple tarts.

When we baked enough cookies for other people, we made our own shapes, like burgers, tacos, egg rolls.  We had a lot of fun baking that we didn't even know that it was already in the evening when we finished. It was really a good experience.

homeschooling day 5

This morning, I read about Abraham Lincoln trying to stop slavery.  The unions think that slavery was illegal but the southerns think that slavery was legal, so they started the civil war. One night, he had a bad dream that he died and his coffin put in one of his rooms.  A few weeks later, He was invited to watch a play, and he sat on his rocking chair in his private room.  His guard should be guarding him, but was distracted and went down to watch the play.  Unfortunately, he was shot by a person from the southerns and died. His nightmare really did come true. I pity that Abraham Lincoln passed away just like that.  In the afternoon, I helped my mother to fry noodles.  I am truly enjoying my homeschooling.  I hope you like my journal.

homeschooling day 4

Today, my mother gave me a homework, she asks me to write things that happen that everyday, means diary , which you are now reading.  So…today, as usual, we had our breakfast ( chocolate banana drink ) and have our prayers.  Then we started our day, I did a lot of reading and enjoyed myself as usual,  Then I helped my mother cooked food ( salmon ) .  Then we went to have our morning walk and bought some newspapers. After that, we went to school to fetch my siblings home.  I enjoyed my homeschooling as much as playing computer games.  So that is for today, please write some comments down there and I would be writing here tomorrow so bye…

homeshcooling

Yesterday I started my homeschooling. It was very fun,I get to read a lot and do a lot. In the afternoon, I will cook with my mother some delicious food and sometimes get to cook soup. I learn to be more independent and learn a lot of skills.  We also have our morning walk everyday and buy some newspaper.  I also get to help my mother do housework for about half an hour every morning.  I really love homeschooling.
