2008-10-02T10:04:00.001-07:00

Hello people, my name is Martel, that´s not my name, but keep it like that, im going to talk about Rugby.

Rugby is fun, I play it every Sunday. Also, its near to the Hockey Club, so you can also see pretty girls. Rugby is fun, you get into a ruck, and everyone is on you, in a mall, you take your team forwards, and when you are with the ball, you go forward. You can make kicks, drop kicks, and you can get him with a good tackle, and that´s it. You, can also, when the match is over, you can get to the third quarter, you get to eat!, that´s the best part, oh YEAH!!!.

There is also a friend, that plays very well called Santiago Gardey.

My mother is English, I like Rugby most, as Rugby is from England.

That´s it for now

Hi, I'm Santiago I'm from San Antonio de Areco. My school is called San Antonio. I don't have a best friend. I don't like having just one best friend. My favourite sport is FOOTBALL. And I wish I could be a professional football player. I think I'm on the track. I like a girl called Mariana. Two of all my friends are called Borja and Eugenio, who can make me laugh with only two silly words, even with one word. Another of my friends is Pedro, who sometimes bothers me but most of the time he is a very good friend. The other one that I'd like to mention is Santiago Visca that is also most of the time being a good friend. The girls are all very good with me. Irene is the most graceful of all of them.

CAMILLA:
Whose teeth turned long
and finished in a circus dead.

Any food which tasted sweet
Was what Camilla liked to eat.
She didn´t heed the dentist´s warning
To brush her teths night and morning.

Until one day
Her teeth turned grey.
Her parents so sad
Sold her to a circus man;
he was very bad.

The little girl was taken to a circus
Where all the animals were very serious.

The next day
Camilla was part of a play.
She walked through a door;
Tipped with her teeth.
When she fall, hit her head and finished on the floor.

They call the doctor, and he said
"This little girl will soon be dead".
That night
Camilla died.

LESSON: Always brush your teeth night and morning.

I hope you enjoyed. Imust go to work.

natural disaster,forest fire!!!

2008-05-28T13:36:00.000-07:00

The rain is so powerful that it is almost stoping the smoke. I am dying. The fire made me feel dizzy. I am hungry. But luckily the fire is so big that in few minutes many airplanes started coming. I am starting brething and so I can start shouting for help."help!;help!.I said coughing.I am dizzy and so I can't almost talk. A few minutes an airplane saw me and so it through ladder at me. I started climbing but I had to be careful because some fire sports continued. My vacations in Brazil finished like a horrible moment and a desperation anecdote."thank you!".I said with my heart pumping quickly and punished."I need to see my father and my mother pleace!".I cried.
when I arrived my house my parents were ctying, until they saw me at home they were so happy I was there that they cried fore their happiness.

When we had to go to pay the insuarance of the things we had to explain my terrible story.

In summer we were in an expeditionin a forest with my friends and we were setting up the tent when suddenly it started raining so we put everything away and in seconds lightning arrived. Tis was falling until it burnt all the forest, we were all wet and burnt. We were running as fast as we could, and all was because of the fire in the forest.

That's why I am here and probably another family is going to come here or maybe they have already come because of the terrible"forest fire!

I have just been rescued from a gigantic hurricane. I'm at a safe place now. They used a helicopter. Now I'm gonna tell you what had happened. I was watering the plants, suddenly I heard the telephone. It was my brother telling me that a hurricane was coming. I went quickly to the cellar with the radio, food and a torch. The hurricane was very large so the police went house by house taking out the people in the cellars. Finally they went to my house and I went to a safe place and turned on the T.V and I saw my hgouse collapsing and breaking into pieces.

Hello I am Carolina from Argentina and I wanted to write about my last holidays.I went to a place near San Martín de los Andes on camping.It was horrible!There was horse and cow dung everywere!Cows and horses passed in front of you and the little children were playing with them.The bathrooms were outside and they were like little houses, and there were only one. If you jumped a little bit you could see the person!I tried not to go there, but I had to go. At night, as we were six people, my mother, my father, my baby brother and my sister sleeped on a carp for four and me and my sister sleeped in the one my father and my mother had slept when they were young. We wanted to go to another camping, but our car was broken and the camping was in the middle of nowhere. The next day we wanted to call a truck but at first there was no line. We tried 4 times and it finally worked.It was a miracle! We were saved of that horrible place...and this was my most bad holiday I ever had. Goodbye!!!!!!!

Why I called this "Children Near and Far"

2007-11-30T07:14:00.001-08:00

There was a geography book when I was little called “Eight children from near and far”. We learned geography by reading about the life of children in Norway, China, Australia or Argentina.

The poem I published above “Near and Far” comes from a book we had at home and it talks about making friends.

So “near and far” is a phrase that reminds me of my childhood.

I felt it had to be in the name of this blog through which I hope many children will meet, make friends and learn from each other.
