Windsurfing by Barry

By

One day I thought about going windsurfing. I asked if I could and my parents said yes. So my parents looked and they found a place where I could go windsurfing. So I’m off to go windsurfing.Here I am with an instructor he is teaching me how to  go windsurfing. We are out on the waves when a shark came out of nowhere. Everyone had to get out of the water. So I had to get out of the water. When I got to shore I was fine.   

Cross country skiing by Robyn

One day I went cross country skiing it was fun.   It was cold you needed  a coat and big boots for the snow. The snow was cold and slippery. Thats why it was fun.  How long did it take for you to learn? I dont think  it  takes much practice.by Robyn (4th Class) after reading a book about Cross-Country Skiing.
