Free verse poem War and Peace

The battle was born 

with two teams one left and one right, 

but just very soon they will start their mighty fight.

All you could hear was gunshots in the distance, 

it makes the soldiers feel like they're out of existence.

Soldiers dying on the dirty mud and their blood pouring everywhere,

Soldiers screaming at one another in fear. 

One team could taste victory and the other defeat.

In every battle you should not have smelly feet.

The development of music

For music Hurumanu, we have been working on making a slideshow about the Development of Music each decade from the 1900s to 2010s. In my group is Ranit and we have been working on it after school and we were the first ones managing to finish it and we are happy about our slideshow and how we presented it. 

We had to present about who were famous in each decade and what were the most popular songs at the time.We learnt about new song artists and we learnt what genres they sang now we know more about music and how it developed. We would like to learn more about the history of music because it is a fun thing to learn about.

Hope you like the slideshow and also I hope you learned something from it. Hope you enjoy and have a great day. Also, leave a comment and bye...

Shoe Story

Every time I explore with my owner I see many different things we always go everywhere with each other until this thing called school came in his life. Everyday he would take this new black leather shoes with him on this yellow moving box. after 3 months i got lonely and needed company in my house. So i packed my socks and left to find another pair of shoes. Later that day I found a shop with lots of sneakers like me. So I looked at the shoes all were black except for one.. The one that standed out the most was the pink one.. I took her back home with me. We did all sorts of things like race each other I had so much fun.. but everyday my owner would come back and wear me again I was so confused. So he did his daily yellow box routine but one day he came back with a girl and they both had this sweaty smell.. or was it me. Well one thing i know is it was definitely him. Everyday she would come over and as soon as u know it we all lived together. She would always wear my friend the pink pair of shoes. After the strange school thing ended my owner only cared about me because the black other school shoes broke. Then me my owner and his Friend that came over everyday lived happily ever after. Until we didn't... my owner couldn't fit me anymore but he still took me everywhere with him and the pink pair of shoes died 2 years ago.
