The Journey to Earth

There were three big islands flying in the sky. Each island had their different habitats. One of them was an ocean, another was a jungle, the last island had a lot of sand, like a desert.

There were million of strange animals, that lived on the island. Many strange creatures, people had never seen living on Earth.

I was one of these animals. I had strong wings, sharp gray teeth and a rough green body. I looked like a flying lizard.

Everyday, I would fly to different places. First, I would go to the ocean. The ocean island looked like a gigantic, blue fridge.

The second island was covered with plants, there were no rivers, ponds or lakes, but there were lots of carnivorous plants. To eat millions of insects a day was a piece of cake for the carnivorous plants.

One day, I decided to have a journey down on the earth, so I flew down from the sand island. A big jet suddenly flew over me, I was frightened, I had never seen a jet before!

When I got to earth, I flew over a busy city. The cars were driving around , and the factories polluted the air with poisonous chemicals. It smelled terrible! I breathed in the polluted air, and felt sick.

“Help! Help!” I shouted, I was on the floor of my bedroom. Oh no! I had a nightmare, I wasn’t really a poisonous lizard, I was Tobby. However, my behind hurt, ”Ouch” I said. I got up and drank some hot milk, so I could sleep well again.

This dream taught me to not go to dangerous places, then I won’t get hurt. Even though the dream was strange, I have learned something and I think it was spectacular.

The Best School- Sesame Street School

One day, at Do Re Mi Elementary School…

There was a final exam for English, but Elmo didn’t do it very well. He felt very sad, so he asked his best friend-Cookie Monster for help.

“Cookie Monster! How can I get a good grade on English final test? What can I do?” Elmo asked. Cookie Monster answered, “You can go to OK English School, they can help you get a better grade.”

Then, Elmo went to OK English School…

When he arrived OK English School, he saw some students very unhappy and some students sleep in the classroom.

He thought if learning English was like that, he would never be improved.

So, he went to ask Grover, “How can I get a good grade in English? What can I do?”

“You can go to Sesame Street English School, they can tell you more about English!” Grover said.

Next, he went to Sesame Street English School…

“Thank you, teacher, we love English!” While Elmo was visiting Sesame Street English School, he heard this sound, he saw everyone smile happily on learning at Sesame Street English School, so he decided to study at Sesame Street School.

Elmo started to learn English at Sesame Street School. He learned a lot and felt very pleasant,too. He learned English hard there and he had improved a lot.

After that, his final test was coming soon…

“Ya! I got one hundred! Thank you Sesame Street School! I love you!” Elmo shouted loudly. He told everyone to come to Sesame Street School and all of the Muppets will become smarter and terrific.

Elmo can do it, you can do it, too!

A Magic Book

One day, I went to the library with my friend, Eric. The library was quiet.

However, Eric came to me and said, “Amy, look! This is a book without words and pictures.”

When I opened the book, suddenly, something happened. There was a strong wind blowing on us. We couldn’t see anything.

At that moment, we landed in a forest. And there was an old man next to us. He said, “Welcome, our king and queen.” That made us feel confused.

“Wait! We are not the king and the queen of your kingdom. There must be something wrong.” said Eric.

However, the old man insisted that we were the owners of the kingdom and asked us to go with him.

Along the path, we saw some beautiful flowers. When we walked to the end of the path, we found that there was a field.

The field was filled with garbage. It looked just like a wasteland. There were many poor people living there. That made us feel surprised.

“Please help us. It used to be a great and beautiful country. Three years ago, some mobs came and destroyed our home.” the old man said.

Eric and I looked at each other, and we decided to help them.

We looked for some broom makers to make everyone a broom and asked some animals, like gorillas, lions and eagles for help.

Everybody cleaned and picked up the trash together. We also rebuilt some buildings.

Three months later, the field became clean. And the air was fresh, too.

In order to appreciate us , the old man gave us a book. To our surprise, there were no words inside the book again.

Before Eric and I knew what was going on, we were back in the library.

“What a journey!” We said together as-we-looked at each other overwhelmingly.

Two naughty monkeys

Two naughty monkeys were living in a Japanese zoo. The monkeys lived together with many other animals. Most of the animals loved the zoo, but these two naught monkeys didn’t!

The monkeys wanted to escape because they wanted to be free. They wanted to go out into the world and have adventures.

They decided to escape one dark night. They stole a key from a zoo keeper, and opened their cage quietly.

The next day, the zoo keepers found out that the monkeys had escaped. Two zoo keepers yelled, “Those two naughty monkeys are very dangerous! We need to catch them and put them back in their cage!”

The monkeys first went to the supermarket to steal some bananas. When the clerk saw them, the clerk tried to catch the monkeys. However they ran too fast, so the clerk couldn’t catch them.

Outside they saw many cars and motorcycles. The cars made a lot of smoke and noise, they didn’t like that. A car almost hit them. It was very dangerous.

Finally, they got to the amusement park. Inside they saw many people and many kinds of games. Now, this was exciting!

They climbed onto the “roller-coaster.” When the roller-coaster started to go, the two monkeys felt excited.

But it got faster and faster, they felt scared! They screamed “Ahhh!” and they almost flew out into the sky. When they got off, they were dizzy and they wanted to throw up.

They decided the outside world was very crazy, noisy and scary! But, they didn’t want to go back to the zoo. So, where could they live? Outside the park, they met another monkey.

Then the monkey told them to follow her, because she knew a great place called the “Jungle.”

When they got to the jungle, they saw many bananas and many monkeys! They danced and sang together, happily.

It was fun to have more friends. Now, they really were happy to be free!

A Martian From Mercury

It was a hot and sunny day. Jack was playing baseball in the park.

Suddenly, a strange person who had only one big eye and one big mouth appeared. He didn’t have a nose or ears. Jack was scared.

The strange person said, ”Hi! I am Nick and I am from Mercury. How about you?” Jack didn’t feel scared anymore because Nick sounded friendly.

Then Jack said, “Hello! I am Jack and I am a five-year-old boy. Nice to meet you.” They chatted happily and became good friends.

During the conversation, Jack knew that Nick was from Mercury and he came to Earth for a trip as a birthday gift.

The next day, Jack showed Nick how to ride a bike and let him try what pizza tasted like. They felt terrific to do these things together.

After a week, it was time for Nick to go home, but neither of them felt good about it.

My Life

One afternoon of May, a woman was lying on the hospital bed, huge drops of sweat rolled down her forehead. She was trying hard to give birth to her child.

Suddenly, a cry had burst out. A new and precious life was born. With the cheers of their loved ones, I gradually grew.

When I was five, I learn how to walk, talk, write and much more due to my parents intent teaching.

I even learned about teamwork and the outside world when I was in kindergarten.

When I was teens, I became more mature, I can take care of myself and as well as others. I was able to help my parents more and I could view things in a different point of view.

When I was twenties, I became an adult, an independent. I shouldn’t always take money from parents, but instead I should make money and support the family.

I wanted to begin my teaching career. To teach students the knowledge and let them enjoy the learning process.

When I was thirty, I had a husband, children, my own family.

I should treat my husband and children as I would like to be treated, and hope our family will be filled with happiness.

When I was sixty, at that time, I should be a grandson’s grandmother.

I want to play with him everyday and take care of him, watching his little body and peaceful sleep.

When I was eighty, I want to move to the beautiful countryside and experience the rural life of the 50’s.

Without noisiness, pollution, but only happiness, and enjoy the rest of my life.

“Dead” it’ll absolutely come someday. It might come early, might come later, I don’t know when it will come, I only know I have to make the best of the time I’m given.

Save the planet go go go!

Hundreds of millions of years ago, the solar system in the universe was born, there are now eight planets in the solar system, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

When our Earth was finally born, there was only green grass, bare land and empty oceans on the primitive Earth.

A variety of dinosaurs, plankton and tiny insects were born.

Tens of thousands of years ago, human civilization appeared on the beauty of the Earth.

We humans have damaged this unique planet, but some people find the planet was always hurt. For example, we have lights on all the time, wasting electricity.

We cut down trees, every day to make paper. It’s a waste.

We use cars and other vehicles every day. Each causes carbon emission to the skies, causing a big hole in the ozone layer.

We use too much food packaging and we spit on the ground. I believe that human beings are not good for the Earth.

We should do something to make the Earth a better place.

We can turn off unused lights, reduce our paper consumption and can also take public transportation instead of cars and trucks, we can also pick up the trash on the ground.

By doing these things, our Earth can become more beautiful.

It was a rainy day in a town. Many raindrops fell down on a road, in a garden, and on an umbrella.

One raindrop named Len, fell on a colorful umbrella. Then it slid down on a girl named Tina’s shoulder.

Suddenly, the wind blew strongly and Len was blown away.

Len fell on a little purple flower. Len asked the purple flower, “Whose beautiful garden is this?”

She told Len, “It’s Tina’s garden. She is a nice girl. She takes care of us.”

It kept raining for many days. Len saw Tina every day. He liked to watch her playing in the rain. He was happy there. He wished the sun would never come out.

However, after six days, the sun appeared. It heated the water in the garden and Len rose into the air.

Len became water vapor. The wind took Len higher to the sky. He was very sad. He cried and cried. He thought he would never see Tina again.

Then Len met some water vapor friends and they got together to make clouds. Then the clouds got too heavy and they fell in the same town.

Len became show and fell on the ground. There were two kids playing in the snow. Suddenly, he saw Tina playing in the snow with another kid.

Tina and her friend made a snowman with snow on the ground, so Len and his friends became a snowman. The next day, it was sunny.

Colors

The world is full of colors.

There are 7 colors in a rainbow. They are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

If everything in the world was black and white, it would be so boring.

When I think of red, I thing of Elmo. Elmo likes to laugh and he likes to sing the Elmo song.

When I think of orange, I think of Bert. I want to know why he put an orange on his nose.

When I think of yellow, I think of Big Bird. He is in my student book, on my bookbag and on my pencil case. I can see him everywhere, even on TV.

When I think of green, I think of Oscar the Grouch. I don’t know why he would eat a sardine sundae and drink pickle juice and not get a stomachache.

When I think of violet, I think of Rodeo Rosie. I think she might have eaten too many eggplants.

When I think of blue, I think of the Cookie Monster. I want to ask him why he is never full.

When I think of indigo, I think of Grover. I will ask him to teach me to be as thin as him.

The Sesame Muppets are so colorful and they make my English learning interesting and exciting, too. Imagine, the Muppets in black and white…

Oh, no!

The disobedient Son

Not long ago, there lived a boy named Kai who refused to listen to his mother.

Whenever his mother would say, “Kai, you have to eat your fruit.” He always replied, “You can’t tell me what to do!” Soon, his mother became very frustrated.

One day, when Kai’s uncle Sam came to visit his mother said, “I don’t know how to make Kai obey me. He won’t listen to a word I say. Please, help me!” Uncle Sam just smiled and nodded.

At dinner that night when Kai refused to eat his fruit, uncle Sam smiled encouragingly, “That’s right, my boy. You don’t need to eat fruit because fruit is very sour.”

Kai was surprised. He yelled, “You can’t tell me what to do!” And then he ate the whole plate of fruit.

Later on Kai’s mother wanted Kai to practice the piano, but he refused. Uncle Sam said again, “That’s right my boy. You can’t practice the piano because it is too noisy.”

Kai’s face became red. He yelled again, “You can’t tell me what to do!” And then he practiced the piano for two hours.

That night, Kai refused to go to sleep when his mother asked. Uncle Sam smiled and said, “That’s right my boy. You can’t need to sleep because sleep is boring.”

Kai was furious. He shouted, “You can’t tell me what to do!” And then he threw his head on the pillow and slept quietly all night.

From that day on, whenever Kai’s mother wanted him to do something, he would always say the exact opposite.

Poor, stubborn Kai never caught on to his mother’s trick and always did exactly as he was told.

And so, all thanks to wise uncle Sam, Kai became the most obedient son in town.
