Hello Castledown,
This is where you can keep in contact with me to let me know what you have been doing on your lovely laptops.
Also on here I will ask for your comments and display some of your work.
First thing!
Look at this picture of a winter tree. Can you write a short poem about the tree and send it to me.

Poem based on the Winter tree
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Mr Lazell

The snow
I opened up the curtans.
And it was all white.
I pulled on my clothes and pulled my boots on.
To go out side.
I walked to the park in the freezing cold.
And built a big snowman .
With a carrot on its nose.
The snow was white and fluffy.
I plaed in it all day long .
I had lots of fun .
Im sad now its all gone.

Making snowmen in the snow.
It feel’s very Icy for me.
I feel very happy though.
Looking at the tree’s with the sun shimmering on them.
They look very white and beautiful.
Going sledging on the ice.
Make it more slippery is the thing to do.
Throwing snow ball’s fun but Icy.
Posted by T.R on February 12, 2009 at 11:49 am
I was in my house, Children piaying in the snow
I was feeling so nice and warm, children making it glow,
when I saw the window should I go out?
filled with snow. should I stay in?
I felt so frozen
Inothing moved like a wall,
I could hear my self move
I could hear someone call.

I was playing in the snow.
It was cold and icy.
We were building a snowman in the road.
A car came and smashed it down.
We had to build it back up
Uncle Simon was throwing snowballs out of the window
He got very cold hands
Posted by jh on February 12, 2009 at 12:03 pm
I looked out the window
on a cold frosty morning
the pritty snowflakes
were gently falling
I pate my coat,scarf,
hat and rushed outside it was cold
The snowflakes were wet
and eveything was white
we slid down the hill
we made snowmen
at the end of the day
we had a big snowball fight
