Pearl Habour Attack

70 years ago yesterday, Pearl Harbour (America, Hawaii) was bombed by the Japanese who had partnered up with the Germans who started world war 2.

I thought that the Pearl Hobour attack was very shocking. The japanese took the lives of innocent people just trying to defend themselves and their country. I can't imagine how much it would have affected them 70 years ago. I can imagine that our world would be catastrophic if that happened now. Just hearing the people talking about the experience makes it so much more realistic.

Term 3:

We had to find a ballad and then find a picture that goes with it, here is mine:

We have all chosen a book to read and then we have to do a presentation on it, I have chosen Love and Kisses by Jean Ure. I have read this book before and I really liked it so I thought that I would know enough about the book to do a presentation on it: media type="custom" key="10727596" Tomorrow When The War Began Angus Things and Perfect Snogging The Suitcase Kid Hetty Feather Emily The Strange
 * My Favourite Books**:

Term 2: We are reading a book called the boy in the striped pajamas's, it is a book about World War 2, and the main character is Bruno and his father is very high up on the Germany/Nazi side (so he works for Hitler). Bruno and his family move to another house in the middle of no-where, near a concentration camp, Bruno and his sister, Gretel have no idea what is going on. One day bruno decides to explore, and he comes across the concentration camp and on the other side of the fence is a little boy in 'striped pajamas' the same age as Bruno. The boy's name is Shmeul, he is jewish. They then become best friends, and the story continues! I don't want to say what happens at the end (I read it two years ago so I know) because you might want to read it and find out. I think it is a really moving story.

We had a webquest to do on the book and we were in groups of four, I was with Maddie, ella and rosie. We decided to make a new wikispace where we answered the questions, this is the site: http://theboyinstripedpyjamas.wikispaces.com/
