Mutiny on the Bounty

It was a cold day in December, 1787. There aes a strong wind and a green sea. Three men and a boy on the deck of the littele ship, HMB Bounty. Behind them, on the land, were some hills and small white houses.

Two handred years ago life on a sailing ship was not easy. You ate hard bread and bad meat. You worked night and day, often cold and wet and hungry. You saw no land for manths and months. There were dangerous storms and many accidents; some ship never came home again.

In 1787 HMS Bounty leaves England and sail halfway round the world to Tahiti in the south seas. The captain of the ship is William Bligh, and his First Officer is Fletcher Christian. The Bounty is not a happy ship. Bligh is a hard man, and his officers and his men do not like him.

Rapunzel

Mr. and Mrs. Rose lived in a small house that looked onto a beautiful garden - a garden they never dared enter... ...because it belonged to a wicked and powerful witch .(P.3and4) I read this book because I have watched the movie which was made by Disney and I like Disney princess very much. I want to read original story of Rapunzel, so I read this book. There are a lot of difference in the book. For example, in the movie, Rapunzel has lived in the tower since she was very young. However, in the book, she has lived in the tower since she was eleven years old. It is very different from original book. Also, one prince climbed the tower by himself and entered her house, and met her in the movie. But, in the book, prince climbed the tower by using her hair. I was able to enjoy reading this book, because I know both of Rapunzel's story, and I was able to compared the story. It was very fun, so I want to read bookswhich I have watched movie.

The dog and the bone

One day, a naughty dog stole a big, juicy bone from the butcher. The dog scampered away across the fields... ... and onto a bridge that crossed a stream. I read "The dog and the bone". I remember I read this story when I was child. This story is a dog's story. One day, a dog stole a big bone from the butcher. And he crossed a stream, then he looked down at the water. He surprised because he looks another dog who has a big bone too. He glowled at the dog and barked the dog. But as he opened his mouth, his bone slipped out. The bone fell into water. Then, he understand the dog is himself. This story's moral is "Be happy with what you have". Watson, C. (2007). Aesop's Fables . London, UK: Usborne.

Zadie's Big Day

But on the sports field of Westbourne High School, two football teams are running up and down, kicking a heavy wet football. It's an important match - the semi-final of the girls' football championship between Westbourne and New Milton. I read Zadie's Big Day for literature circle. My role is Summarizer, so I read this book hardly. This book is about Zadie's story. She is very good at sports. Especially, she is good soccer player. She meets with difficulty. But she gets over difficulty. I moved on after reading end. She won final game and acceptable around her people. I think it is very important things try to many things and don't give up. Also, I was thought differences of football and soccer. Especially, I feel good is that "soccer" came from that contraction of association "soc" and expressed person "er" are connected. I can learn many things this literature circle class.
