Hours Spend in School Each Year.

I am going to tell you about an article that I read in Time For Kids. The article is about the hours spent in the schools around the world.

Almost all schools spent more or less than 800 hours or more than 1,000 hours in school each year.The ages are 9-11.This article did not include information about U.S. schools.

For Example: 1. The Netherlands Spends 1,000 hours each year,2. Australia Spends 979 hours,3. Italy Spends 957 hours,and 4. Ireland 941 hours.

How many hours does your school spends each year?

Underground Railroud

Dear.Elisabeth.

My journey on the underground railroad was very cold,scary,long,and hard. First we left Pennsylvania and went north. I had to travel in the night so no one will see  us. When we were in the middle of the night started to snow and we were hungry and cold. We were about to eat our last food until three coyotes appear and we gave them the food. After three more hours we got more hungry and cold . After almost the middle of the morning we were looking for a save house to sleep and eat until the night. But fist we look that the house had a quilt with black square so that we know if it was save or not. There was three more days to be free and happy. After three days we were free and happy. Wen we were in Canada we went to a Church and thank god that we were free for ever!!

Figurative languages.

This is a post about figurative language. I am going to tell you about personification! Personification is some thing that is from a person not a thing. For Example: HA!HA! HA!The pencils are laughing at you.HA! HA!

This is another post about figurative language. now I am going to tell you about Idiom ! Idiom is a kind of language that you  express something in another way. For Example: Is raining cats and dogs = It is raining really hard!
