Today we had another event in the Goodwill Games, which was Crab-Racing. All you had to do was crawl like a crab to the other side of the classroom, touch a table, then go back and hi-five the next person. Madagascar got a bronze medal, Iceland got a silver medal and Cuba got a gold medal.
Today we have started a group of games called the Goodwill Games. We have three groups, and each group has a specific country. The countries are Cuba, Madagascar and Iceland. Each country has a president. The presidents of the countries are Slinky, Movies and Maverick. We have two games, which have been the shot put and What's The Time Mr. Wolf.
Cuba and Madagascar both have a gold medal and a bronze medal, while Iceland has two silver medals. In shot put, we didn't have an actual ball so we used a vortex.

Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind
As man's ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most freindship if feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then heigh-ho, the holly!
This life is most jolly.
Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky,
That does not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As a friend remembered not.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most freindship if feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then heigh-ho, the holly!
This life is most jolly.
William Shakespeare

Honesty, trust I believe in this all
With kindness and courage we can stand very tall
To great plains and oceans
To see the true emotions
We honour friendship with great thought and fun
Together we can face whatever we have done
We live as one with peace and harmony
To see each other without fear or agony
All this makes me proud to be an Australian
With as many good thoughts as the colours as a chameleon
By Slinky
I have been treading on leaves all day until I am autumn tired
Lord knows all the color and form of leaves I have trodden on and mired
Perhaps I have put forth too much strength or been too fierce from fear...
I have safely trodden underfoot the leaves of another year
All summer long they were overhead more lifted up than I
To come to their final place in earth they had to pass me by
All summer long I thought I heard them whispering under their breath
And when they came it seemed with a will to carry me with them to death
They spoke to the fugitive in my heart as if it were leaf to leaf
They tapped at my eyelids and touched my lips with an invitation to grief
But it was no reason I had to go because they had to go...
Now UP MY KNEE to keep atop another year of snow.
By Robert Frost
Mr. Monkey says: “Baaahhh! I am a sheep. Baaahhh!”
The moral of this story is not to be something you are not.
Mr Monkey says: “I demand bananas!”
The moral of this story is that you don’t always get what you demand.
The moral of this story is that you don’t always get what you demand.
My name is Billy. One day I was feeding a cow when I heard a loud “Neigh!” It kept on going and going, so I followed the noise and it led me to a sign that said Mustang, and it had an arrow pointing right. I went right and it led me to a horse. He had ropes tied around him so I untied him and took him to the ranch with my brand new horse house. So I took him out the back. I put him in the horse house with some hay and water and went back inside my house.
I went back to where the Mustang was tied up the next morning and found a man with some carrots. “Did you untie the Mustang that was here yesterday?” asked the man. “Yes I did.” I replied. “Why?” said the man. “Because he looked unhappy.” I told him. “Of course he was unhappy, he hadn’t eaten in days!” I was horrified. I ran away as fast as I could back to the ranch. I got on the Mustang and went back. The Mustang was delighted to see the man. “Why?” I thought in my mind. “Why was the Mustang so happy to see this man? Oh well, some things are better to be unknown to be known.
I saw that the man had the carrots in his pocket. I grabbed them and fed them to the Mustang. Now the Mustang wasn’t so excited to see him. I jumped onto the Mustang and went back home. I have lived with that Mustang ever since those horrible two days happened.
