It-tfajla tal-Barnuża l-Ħamra...b'differenza

Il-verżjoni l-oħra tal-Barnuża l-Ħamra - miktuba minn H. Attard

Darba forst l-oħrajn kien hemm tfajla ta' tmintax-il sena jisimha Natasha. Din it-tfajla kienet fi triqitiha għal għand in-nanna tagħha b'qoffa tal-qasab bil-frott u pastini tal-lewż li ppreparat il-mamà tagħha. Il-mamà ma marritx magħha għax kienet allerġika għall-fjuri. It-tfajla libset barnuża ħamra għax in-nanna kienet tħobb l-aħmar u b'hekk tferraħha. Waqt li bdiet miexja kien hemm maltempata li tajret id-dar tan-nanna u ntilfet. Wara rat raġel gustuż tal-età tagħha u żżewġet.

Darba waħda kien hemm tifla jisimha Betta u kellha rasha iebsa daqs il-ġebel. Ommha kellha l-mistednin u ma setgħetx tmur għand in-nanna bl-ikel. Hi qalet lil Betta biex tmur hi u ma tkellem lil ebda stranġier. Malli waslet fil-bosk kien hemm ħafna siġar u ħdura. F'daqqa waħda qabdet ix-xita u hi marret tiġri għal għand in-nanna. Wara sabet ruħha għand saħħara u hi wasslitha għand in-nanna bl-ikel f'idha.

Extinct Animals

Last week's presentation was extremely interesting. It involved a wonderful Power Point presentation done by student E. Gauci, where he talked about different types of animals and explaining how and why these animals are becoming extinct. 

We were left speechless at some pictures of wild animals and we were very interested in listening to Gauci's amazing facts. 

Overall, we learnt about new animals and how we can help in order to avoid these creatures from being killed and eventually become extinct.

Well done E. Gauci!

Goldilocks and the Three Bears - Desmond Marwood

Setting:
In the Woods and in a little cottage.

Characters:
Goldilocks: the girl with golden locks
The three bears: Father Bear, Mother Bear and the Baby Bear

Conflict:
Once there was a girl called Goldilocks. One day she set off to explore the Woods, so she skipped away into the Woods. She had already explored most of the woodland but today she decided to go further than she had ever been before.

When she was walking she soon came upon a cottage also hidden by the trees. The door of the cottage was open so she tapped gently on it and called out: "Hello - is anyone there?" There was no reply. It was all very quiet. "I wonder who lives here?" thought Goldilocks. She went in and on the table there were three porridges:  the biggest one was salty, the middle-sized bowl was too hot and the smallest bowl was good for her so she ate all the porridge. 

Then she was tired so she went to sleep. There were three beds too. One was huge, another was middle-sized and third was quite tiny. She tried them all and then she decided to sleep in the third one. The bear family who lived in the cottage found Goldilocks while Goldilocks was waking up. When she saw them she went running home and she never went to the Woods again.
