Holywood Hullabaloo

Hi all, quick update from Caspian. These are my woodpecker facts from yesterday.

1. They can peck a tree 30  times per second.
2.  They peck trees to make nests.
3. Their life span is 6  – 11 years.
4. There are 200 species of woodpecker.
5. Some species live in deserts.
6. There are air pockets protecting their brains so they don’t hurt their head when they are pecking.
7. Males and females make the nest together.
8. The wood chippings make the nest soft for the chicks.
9. Woodpeckers are endangered.
10. Sometimes they accidentally peck metal and telephone poles.

Hi all, I’m back with some good news. Ludo is much better and is allowed out of his hospital cage on a regular basis now. He is not allowed to jump though as his pelvis is still mending. Also, today Saxon our pirate cat decided to hide in a delivery bag for five minutes!

Anyway, back to school work now. I got my work done quite quickly today. I had vocabulary, maths and French language and French geography today. I have also read a lot on Epic. Last night I read a lot while Ludo was curled up on my knee.

Bye.

Today Harry picked someone from Holywood to describe and I picked someone to do simile sentences about. It was actually not easy. Can you guess who this is?

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I went on a really long walk! We went to Ae forest and I found lots of bugs. A snail, a bee, a spider, butterflies and a beetle. Did u know a Caterpillar has 16 legs! I threw big rocks into the river and made a fairy garden near the river too. We also put rocks on top of each other so see how high we could make it.

Today I have done my maths work, topic work on what a human would need in the desert and I made a little book called ‘Bugs in my garden’.  We found a bumble bee on a flower. He was getting nectar from the flower. I read the story ‘The toy box’ then we had some lunch. Now I’m going to play in the garden.

Look at my tadpole. Bobby has legs now. 🤗

Later on I’m going to facetime my friend Cassie.

Bye 😘

The main character is Ethel Letherhead and her mum has died and she lives in a house with her granny. Ethel has acne skin problems and they have being trying to get is to go away for ages. One day Ethel goes to pop into the skin tanning place and the lady says she’s going to throw away an old tanning bed that still works so Ethel and her friend Elliot Boyd take it down to her house because the lady let them have it for free but Ethel’s gran would probably not let her keep it so she kept it secret, also Ethel has found a new thing she could try to stop her acne. It’s called Dr. Chang his skin so clear. And on the packet it’s all Chinese accept from a label that says DO NOT OVER DOSE. She however ignored that and took loads. its tasted HORRIBLE. She then went on the sun bed but fell asleep! This seemed to…MAKE HER INVISIBLE! That was just the start of her adventures!

I really liked this book because it’s sort of an adventure that you don’t know what will happen next, really!

Does anybody know who this is?
