Newsround today was about a lot of things starting with jet Man.
Have you ever wondered what it is like to fly like a bird? Meet jet Man. There is a man with jet propelled wings and everybody calles him jet man. You have to move your body left to turn left you have to turn your body right to turn right.
A lamb has been born in whales called Jake and he has 5 legs but he is just fine and he is prancing around like all lambs do.
There is a frog in Cameroon that is nearly extinct and they have been born in London at London zoo we are hoping that there habitats will rise over the years and they will not become extinct.
The lynx a kind of big cat has been realised into the wild and everybody is having a debate to see if we should keep them out in the wild or not.
We did the newsround quiz of the week we got 7/10 which is not a bad score I thought we would get them all correct but we did not.
In Nepal there has been an earthquake and many people have lost homes and lifes. Some countries are sending aid (stuff they need) like: tents,food,water,and clothes. And the famous mount everist has had lots of avalanches. 17 people have been kilt on Everest and over 3,000 people died because of the earthquake.
There’s a man who can fly in the sky like a bird or a plane using jet propelled wings. He is called Jet Man. He is from the USA and he is a fully trained pilot. Please do not try this at home!!!
There were more frogs on Newsround again this week. This time, an endangered frog from Cameroon has been bred in captivity in London Zoo. This is a good thing because it means we are saving the species.
Also there was a Lynx which is now endangered. People killed it for its fur, and also to stop it killing farm animals. They are having a debate about if we should do something about it.
There has been an earthquake in Nepal. Mount Everest is in Nepal, and it has made avalanches. Over 3000 people have been killed. People from other countries are trying to help them.
Tune in next week for more Newsround stories! by P1-4

Black Beauty is the book I am doing for my Reading challenge.
It is about a horse that is sold to a lot of people in the story. at the start of the story he starts off in a field.
If I would to describe in 3 words it would be happy, sad, sold a lot. He is black and white.

Newsround today was mostly about the General Election. This is when 18s and over can vote for who they want to be our new prime minister of the UK. P1-4 didn’t think it was the most exciting Newsround but we had a talk about how important it is to the country. There were children interviewing Nicola Sturgeon who is the SNP leader.
Then we went and watched a clip about a new species of frog that has been discovered. It is see-through. It is called a glass frog, and you can see its organs inside it. It is not made of glass though. The frog lives in Central America so we probably won’t see it in our garden.
After that we watched the Strange, Stranger, Strangest video. The first story was about a gorilla that walks on two legs like us. The second video was about a chimpanzee hitting a drone down from the air with a stick and investigating it. The last story was about a new chef robot that can cook us dinner, but you have to use some special gloves to work it. We can’t buy it yet and it will cost loads of money when we can so we are not sure if we want one.
I went to Palmerston last night, Thursday 9th April, to watch Queens v Rangers. Queen of the South won 3-0. I had a good time, it was my first night match, I didn’t get home until 10pm.
Here are some photos of me from the TV – I was on BT Sport, my brother Ross recorded it for me. I went to the match with Jack, Ross and my Dad. My Papa was there too, he was also on the TV , when we were standing at the corner flag.

my reading book at school is kites we are making a display in the corridor .kites were invented in china over 2000 years ago we get all different shapes and sizes . some people in china make big dragon ones for parades . tip small kites are suited to smaller winds and larger kites in large wind . never fly a kite in a thunder storm !!! . how to make a kite what you need : tape/string/ a stick glue two straight pieces of stick .1 ask an adult to make a deep notch in each end of the dowel sticks .the notches should fall in the same direction . 2 tie the two sticks together to make a cross ad tape or a dab of glue to make the joint strong . 3 cut a piece of string long enough to make the diamond shape around the kite . stretch the string around one side of the kite from top to bottom and then stretch it around the other side of the kite from bottom to top . make sure the string sits firmly in each notch. 4 secure the string at the top of the kite by winding it around the stick a few times . the frame must be taut but not so tight that the sticks bend .5 tape the frame to the paper cut the paper about 3cm larger than the frame cut a wedge at each point so the paper folds easily over the frame . 6 glue the paper to the frame. leave the glue to dry for a day 7 attach colours or paper strips to the string to make a tail . 8 cut a piece of string about 120cm long and attach the string above the intersection of the two sticks. wind the other line around the winder.
Today the 20th of March, Holywood primary school experienced the first total Eclipse since 1999!!!!! That’s more than a decade. Most of us weren’t alive then! We do not know about the rest of the pupils but… Josh and I were ASTONISHED! Ethan brought in a pair of solar protective glasses to see the view and it was BEAUTIFUL! The amazng sight is a once in a lifetime. Ethan lent us glasses and we all saw the smile! If Ethan was the only pupil with the glasses, how did we view it? We made solar reflectors with two sheets of paper!
