THe invention of PAPER!!


Hi. Today, I am going to introduce the WONDERFUL invention ever.

Paper- Paper is used for writing, printing and wrapping and is made from vegetable matter. Nowadays paper was made from the wood of fast-growing trees such as fir, pine and spruce. The wood is cut into very fine pieces, mixed with water and other chemicals and heated. Paper was invented in China in about AD 705 by a scholar called Ts'ai Lun.
If Ts’ai Lun did not invented the paper, we can't send letters, write important knowledge and many more. Since Ts'ai Lun invented the paper, our technology development improves alot. People could plan their new invention on the paper, revise their work and if something bad happen, they can send letters to let each other know. Although paper is helpful, but people needs to cut down the trees to make papers. We need to RECYCLE!! If we don't recycle now, we might cannot use paper in the future!

A Meaningful Visit from SPCA.

Last Friday,there was a visit from SPCA,(Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) One of the SPCA worker showed us a power point and explained to us everything about SPCA. Do you know why there are injured animals on the street have dead? It's because the children throw stones or they might be abandoned by their owners. Wait, if you just think the opposite way, you might have feel sorry for the animal. Animals didn't actually did anything wrong. It's just that the owners are too lazy to take of their pets. Oh, you think that the pets are disturbing? But you don't have to abandon them. You just can send them to SPCA.

You might see some injured pets on the street. Don't avoid them, try to help them! There are too many these abandoning situation so SPCA is now full of injured and abandoned cats and dogs. There are so many of them that the people have to neuter them. Sometimes, they put the animals into deep sleep. So, we need to help these homeless animals!

You can help them by:
1. ADOPT pets! Don't buy a pet from pet shop!
2.DONATE money to SPCA.
3. DONATE supplies that you are not using: old towel, food / drink bowl, litter sand, old newspaper...

Sounds pretty easy?Huh! Guess what! You have to show SPCA that you are willing to help them by these three main points! You don't want to leave those cute puppies out there injured. Right? I wouldn't let them do so. So, from now on if you have chance to buy pets, remember.BUY FROM THE SPCA! IT WOULD HELP THEM A LOT!!

Me + Me & Me!


Hi, I am Rosa. I named my title "Friendship is Forever", because I realized that friendship is really important. "Friendship" means there is someone beside or around me to help me out whenever I am in trouble or having a hard time.

In 4th grade, I made a best friend-Sheri. Although I was better than her in English, Korean, Math etc, she was better than me by heart: kindness, forgiveness... She bought me foods whenever I did not bring my food and we shared book whenever I did not bring my book to school. I was heart breaking when Sheri left Malaysia and I thought about not seeing Sheri again. Now, we cannot see each other but we often send mails and tell each other good news and bad news. If we continue mailing to each other, that will build up our friendship and it will last forever. Also, I put up a picture of a piano, because I think that represents me. I love music and my dream is becoming a great musician. I played piano since 6 years old, and i am church pianist now. So, I hope PIANO can be a representation of me.
