Mini Volcano

At my history subject,we made a mini volcano.There was a lot to do at this project.We even went to the supermarket to buy some of the materials.The volcano was a little model of Mt.Vesuvius.We used baking soda,red food coloring,vinegar,a funnel,water,dish wash liquid, and a box to make the volcano.First, we cut off the bottom of the box It looked like a  brown field.Second,we put a plastic bottle in the middle of the field.I covered the bottle with soil and shaped it like a mountain.We put water so the soil will harden.

Next,we used the funnel to pour some baking soda into the bottle.Then,we put the dish wash liquid into the bottle.Red food coloring makes the baking soda red,like lava.We put some red food coloring to make lava.

Last of all ,we put vinegar so the lava drips.We took a picture of it.It was so fun to make it!

I Love My Art Folio!

I have an art folio from Manila Baby Shop, where I can put things in.The art folio's color is grey and has flowers and hearts in it.The hearts and flowers have different colors which  I like.

About my art folio:

 color = grey and white

 design = hearts and flowers

 style = like a shoulder bag

 handle's color = white

Its amazing that I can put different things inside it.Like :oil pastels,crayon box, art works, sketch pads or coloring books.It has little pockets inside it where I can put markers and paintbrushes.I can also put school supplies such as books and erasers inside the art folio.I have many artworks here at home.I can put all of them here!

My Second Ballet Recital

One of my favorite things to do is to dance ballet. I take ballet lessons on Monday and Wednesday. It was Tuesday when my classmates and I did our rehearsal at the giant stage in CCP. Before I went to the rehearsal, we went to the parlor so I could get a makeover. The rehearsal started at 12:00 PM and ended 6:00 PM .My rehearsal day was exciting.We practiced our dances and had a chance to sit at front seats inside the theater. Recital day was on May 31,2012,Thursday.  The recital started at 5:00 PM, but we were needed to be at the CCP by 3:30 PM for warm up class. Before the recital, my classmates and I went to the dressing  room to prepare.This was my second time  to go to CCP and see the great stage again.It had turned out exciting for me to dance on stage.I didn't get nervous while dancing , because it was dark . And my ballet teacher told me to find the little red light and look at it instead of looking at the audience .After my recital,we headed straight home. It had been a wonderful day to dance on stage again.

Mothers Day

Mommy,sleeping on a bed.
Baby, sleeping beside Mommy's head.
Mommy says "open your eyes."
Baby opens her eyes like tiny mice.
Mommy, sleeping on a bed.
Baby, sleeping beside Mommy's head.
''You are my baby,''Mommy says.
Baby looks through the sunshine's rays.
Mommy, sleeping on a bed.
Baby, sleeping beside Mommy's head.
Mommy sees a cloud, floating across the sky.
Baby, sees the wings of a fly.
Oh, Baby's cute smile across her face,
Looking at Mommy's  shining necklace
Mommy, sleeping on a bed.
Baby, sleeping beside Mommy's head.
Mommy's eyes sparkled beside Baby.
Mommy says,'' when you grow up,Baby,
you will be a beautiful lady.''

This is a poem I made up for Mommy.It is about a mom and a baby, alone in a room.I also made another poem for Mommy.I was supposed to show the poem for Mommy on Mothers Day , but since Mothers Day was on Sunday,I already gave the poem to Mommy. We are in church every Sunday. Almost every Sunday, we are busy. Actually, almost every day we are busy, except for one day, Friday. On Monday and Wednesday, I have Ballet classes.On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday ,Toby has sports training.That's why I had to give the poem to Mommy. We also made an activity for Mommy.It was all about her, Mommy.Here's how it looked like:


I hope you liked my work.You know,I love Mommy very much.That is why I make special things for her.
Maybe,someday I might send a happy Mothers Day card to you.So, happy Mothers Day to you all !

My Thoughts on 2nd Grade

At first I thought that grade 2 was hard . After a few months of studying, I realized that grade 2 was not hard . I     studied hard and did my best . My favorite subjects are science, reading, and history . Science is my favorite subject because I had fun learning and reading about planets, animals, plants and many more .Reading is my favorite subject because I love reading . I could almost finish a whole chapter book on one day! My favorite subject is history because I learn about characters like Augustus. During grade 2, I had 6 subjects ,Bible, math, social studies ,science, reading, and history . I also practice cursive writing sometimes .Now I know that, when something is hard , I should not give up.

Go Azkals!

Our family loves football. This day the Philippine team, Azkals won! Their score was 2. While the other team scored just 1 point. I was so happy. There will be another game at Friday. We always watch football on TV , but watching the Azkals play in real life is more fun! My little brother, Toby, is interested in football. He also wants to be a smart football player when he grows up. So while he is young, we have planned to take him to a football class.I also made a poem about football:

I love to play football

I like it when we run

Look at the open area where we can play

As the ball passes by it says''make way!''

I love to play football

It is the best

As I say after football is a rest.

That poem was lovely. I hope the Azkals win the game on Friday.

Ballet

I love my ballet classes. That's why I love to dance on stage .I already danced on stage once ,but now I will dance again on CCP for my recital.I am really excited ! But this time my classmates and I will look like princesses .This years recital will be very memorable to me.My mother bought me a beautiful ballet tutu and a ballet music box. Ballet is very hard .If you will take ballet classes ,be ready for pains.You also need discipline ,and diligence so you can dance beautifully. I love ballet very much. What do yo think? Ready for ballet?
