Spain Geography Report Draft 1

Spain is best known for its bull fighting, a tomato festival where they throw tomatoes at each other and its good food.

Bull fighting is cruel to the bulls. They all die and are killed horribly. Its just for entertainment and its disgusting.


This looks like a sticky situation. This is the tomato festival. Did yo know that in one town they had to stop people coming in when they had 20 000 people throwing tomatoes. 

They grow a special type of tomato for this. They aren't very  nice to eat. I don't like tomatoes anyway.


Spain is on the left side of Portugal and under France and is in Europe.


Spain is 504,645 km² big. It can fit into Australia 16 times.
The population of Spain is 46.25 million .
Other than Spanish they speak Arabic, Romanian, English and Germany to list a few.
In Spain they have a Monarchy government.

The Spanish flag has one stripes of red and yellow.


In Spain they use euros as there currency.


Some of the famous food in Spain are pinchous and paella.
Pinchous are little dishes.


Paella comes in a big wok.

Maths lesson 2 number sentences

A number sentence is like spelling a word in English and is just as important to maths as it's important to English.


Number sentences are used when doing math so you can find out what the answer of the question is.

You have to learn how to read a number sentence and what its asking you to do. 
This is a simple one.



A harder example might be

If Morgan, Lilly and Xander were given 15 lollypops. How many each would they get?

What its asking me to do is: 15 divided by 3

Germany - Geography Report

Did you know that in Germany the invented the press for printing? We visited it in a museum in February, so if you've been around for long time on my blog that was the Gutenburg post.

Germany is in Europe next to Poland and beside Belgium and the Netherlands.

The capital city is Berlin.


Germany is 357,168 km² big. It could fit into Australia 21 times.

There is 80.62 million people who live in Germany.  Thats nearly 4 times as many people in Australia.

In Germany they speak German, English, Russian and French.

In Germany they have a democracy government.


They use euros for there currency. The Euro is used all over Europe.


There national emblem is a eagle.



Germany has alot of history. It was settled by the Romans 2000 years ago. We have been to some of the forts castles still standing. There have been lots of wars involving Germany, including the 1st and 2nd World Wars which were started by Germany.

The famous foods in Germany are bratwurst, black forest cake and their famous pumpernickel bread. One of there famous beers is a black beer.

You see these Barbecues everywhere as fast food in Germany. I love bratwurst best.




In Germany they have different roofs for the snow and ice that they have to deal with. So the houses have steep roofs.

Did you know that in Germany they have a few events on the ninth of November? In 1918 the monarchy was overthrown and replaced with the democracy government. They also have a night of remembrance from the second world war and the berlin wall coming down.

If you were going to be a tourist and want  to visit this country I would suggest to see the Neuschwanstein Castle, go to Oktoberfest and Brandenburg Gate.

Music lesson 1 What is music?

Music is a sound that comes out of an instrument or a group of instruments.
My favourite type music is pop.

My favourite group is Tryhardninja.

They make parodies of music my favourite is called Revenge.  A parody is when they get a song that is famous and they change the lyrics to being funny.
