An Excerpt from 'Zombie' by Ye Eun Won. Part One.

The sky was gloomy. The air was stuffy and a sudden green mist rose slowly from the graves. The town clock struck twelve times. It was midnight and everything was silent. A surprising rumble struck as a wolf howled and growled. The clouds spread apart and a glowing full moon appeared.

Luke's Poem.

My Mum.

She works hard with help and sweat.
When I was born her heart was set.
She makes sure that I am good.
Treated well like I should.

She is always there in everything.
It's like she loves me more than anything.
I wake up to a day that is fine.
And I don't need to worry because she makes me shine.

Chase Cullen's Family Poem.

My Little Niece

My favourite little niece is as beautiful as an angel.
She always makes me shine.
She is so cute, like she was made by the stars.

When I look at her my mind goes blank and I feel happy.
When I hold her in my arms, I smile.

I really, really love her.

Jordan's Report on Spider's webs.

Funnel webs.

Some spiders live in burrow webs. The burrow is made of silk and is underground. Above the ground, the spider spins a funnel with long threads going into the burrow. Sometimes an insect gets caught in the web, the spider can feel it vibrating and eats it.

Lasso webs.

The Lasso web is also a type of spiders web which catches moths. This is how the spider makes the Lasso web: It makes a long thread with balls of glue at the bottom. This type of spider has hairs on its body so it can feel the moths moving. To catch the moth it spins the thread with glue at the bottom and the glue touches the moth so the moth gets caught and the spider pulls it in.
