Eternity Zeus By: Yago

Eternity Zeus

Eternity is there.

Your kingdom come,

laying still like blank canvas.

Rush forth, create.

The world trembles under

the thunder in the skies.

But the drowning man once said,

“It is he who’s weighed down with

stone, who struggles most for life.”

And what have you done?

From  the top the clouds,

lightning in hand,

you look at it all.

Immortality is not

without responsibility.

Oh  Zeus,

let them have fire!

Wonderful  machines

push pull lift move transport

with all their  moving parts

Lonely Pirate by Yago

In the remote Red Sea a British frigate survived a terrific attack from pirates...

"Fire" said Captain Flink, who was a brave pirate captain.

At the end of the bloody battle the pirates won. One British soldier survived.
One of the pirates found him .His name was Soldier Jack and he wasn't afraid of death. Captain Flink tortured him so badly. After the act of torture he had no longer hands or the left foot, the cruel captain hanged the hands and the feet in the cabin as a monument of victory!

Jack was marooned in a deserted island. He survived by eating plants and different types of exotic fruits. He learned how to fish and hunt, now he looked like a real survivor.

He had a small house in a tree, particularly a treehouse. He built his own weapons. His favourite weapon was the bow. He was always prepared to be rescued. After 5 years of surviving in a deserted island, a French ship exploring showed up on the island. They were on a mission, the mission was to find the most exotic fruit in that island. Jack had a chance, he could steal the ship. The ship was a frigate, and he would escape.

After a while of planning, he decided that it was time to take over the ship. He took over the frigate. It was easy because the crew was exploring on the island. The ship wasn't guarded. He lived in the ship for the rest of his life. One day he wondered who invented this magnificent machine(Frigate).

The crazy tomato sauce machine by Mahala

Dad: Today everything will change.
Me: Do we have to move?
My brother Kilo kept singing little songs, when we got to the newIhouse.
I went upstairs into my room and there was a machine.
I asked my mom if it was hers...
Mom:no it isn't mine,ask dad if it is his.
I asked dad if it was his....
Dad: Yes it is mine but don't touch the blue button.
I put up my things and moved the machine into the corner.
The next day when I was sweeping I accidently pushed the blue button!

And for a week now every 1 minute it explodes with tomato sauce... it floods our house and prevents us from leaving.
Now after two weeks we can finally go outside.
Kilo: We can finally go outside!
We all went outside...

Me: Dad where are we?
Dad:I think we are in the future.
Me: Where are mom and Kilo?
Dad told us that we would need to build a whole new time machine.

Me: Dad we need to find tomato sauce to make a time machine.
Me: Where are we going to find tomato sauce in the future?
Dad: We will have to find tomatoes and make the sauce.

1 month later...

Dad: We have been working on it for a month and finally our new machine is working!
Me: Well let's go home!

Son: "Oh Dad you are so crazy! I mean how do we get to mom and Lizzie."
Dad: "Son all I need is spray paint."
Son: |"Dad there is one problem. How do we get spray paint?"
"Spray Paint?" said a man dressed in a black dress. "We have plenty of spray paint"
 Son and Dad: "Oh good!"

Dear Diary,
We are back home and we are safe but there is one problem. I have a baby sister. Now my little sister is two years old, and she is so weird. My mom says she is new hope, but I think she is like a hurricane. I still don't understand why time passed so quickly when I came back from the future.

"Oh no, Sofia don't chew on my remote control!"

The End.

                                                                                        

Diary of a Plane by Gwendolyn

Today my mother is out of town and my parents are divorced. I am very lonely today. I have white skin and you can find copa airlines written on one of my sides. It is so weird that my mother always sings: "feeding time!" And she always says: " I'm the loveliest girl in  town."
I am very sad because my pet cat ran away. Well I never liked my dad anyway , he is always so weird when he sprays me with blue spray paint. I don't really have an engine yet . Yesterday I saw people coming with an engine and they are working on it right now. And my mother probably sent them. I am flying to New Mexico tomorrow . I am quite scared to go on my first flight.
After the flight I had 8 more flights to go. My very crazy parents said I was moving just yesterday.
I tried to tell my mother I don't want to move because I like the airport a lot. Well.. it's just that I have a huge case of home sickness. My parents said we are moving to Hawaii! but my mother did not care about that.

The End

Spring Break Assignment

Dear Gatun Room Students,

You've all worked very hard this last term, and I think we all need a short break!
However, I have decided to simply post a quick assignment for all of you ...

Write a small paragraph answering the following questions:

1) Do you or your family celebrate Easter? If you do, what are some activities you might do to celebrate it? If not, do any of your friends celebrate it and how do they celebrate it?

2) Some children believe in the Easter bunny... do you believe in the existence of an Easter Bunny?  Where do you think the story comes from?


Watch the following video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQz2mF3jDMc by the History Channel in the U.S.

and try and investigate where the Easter Bunny comes from...

In addition, if you are bored and have nothing to do, find below a video that will show you how to draw an Easter Bunny for fun!
