The Bittern




1 Because grandad did not drain out the swamp and many animals could not stay or live there.
2 Because the chickens were looking like they were head lice.
3 Grandad did care because animals would have know where to go or stay.
4 Because they care about the environment and the animals.
5 Grandad’s impact was not to drain the swamp because there would be no place for the animals to live ever again.

My Special place

My Special place is my bach because I can do stuff with my family like fishing, getting rock lobsters under a rock, playing rugby and sport with my family and friends. When I'm sometimes bored I go see people like Stefan at the Christian Camp where he stays with his family and friends. Sometimes I go hunting in the middle of the night with my Dad and his friends and we get animals. We also go eeling and I get my fishing rod and Hamish my friend next door comes with me a lot.

Teamwork


My inferenceclues in what I know p.k
Ina plays these positions  GA GK GS. because Miss Sami says watch your shots Ina.The only positions that are allowed to shot is GS GA
I infer that the team wasn't angry at Ina because Miss Sami said i think you guys played as a team because Miss Sami had her hands on the player's shoulder                
lucy was feeling left out because Ina  took a shot at goalbecause Lucy was closer to the hope then Ina because lucy's face looked like she was going to cry

Dear V.M.Jones

Dear V.M.Jones,

Hi my name is Daniel, I think your book is extraordinary and funny. You have a lot of humor in your story. My class and I have just finished your story and all together I think it is mind blowing.
My favorite part of this story is when you let your brother come first over all. Oh, by the way you are right, having a race is not about winning, it is about having fun and sportsmanship.
My favorite chapter is “ The final Countdown.”
I hope you could make another book like Buddy!

your sincerely by Daniel
