The Joyful Mysteries---The Nativity

The Nativity

I hold my beautiful baby boy in my arms and my heart bursts with pure joy, contentment and hope all mixed together to make one wonderful feeling. I look at his hazelnut brown eyes and they seem full of kindness and knowledge and I can’t help feeling proud that this boy is the son of God. I can smell the hay and barn animals wafting around my face and my husband smiles at me, a smile so exuberant  and his eyes twinkle with joy. I look out the window and I can see stars shining radiantly on the black background of the night. The moon winks at me with joy for this wonderful new baby. I am just so happy.

The Joyful Mysteries---The Visitation

The Visitation

I enter into Elizabeth’s home and her smile radiates brightness and joy. Time seems to stop as I look back out the door and see the dusty dirt raising upwards in dirty cloudy puffs because of the wind which is howling in anguish. I look at the sky, there are no cloudy blankets covering the beautiful cornflower blue sky today. I try to look at the sun and It feels as if the sun is winking at me. I look back at Elizabeth and the strong smell of hay and manure bursts into my face. Elizabeth says “Blessed are you among all women and blessed is the fruit of your womb”. I smile back at her and time seems to start again.

The Joyful Mysteries---The Annunciation

The Annunciation

I sit down after praying to God. I look around at my cobblestone walls of my home. The candles around me suddenly blow out around me and the darkness of the room threatens to wrap around my body and overwhelm me. Suddenly I feel a bright warmth cascading around me and I see a heavenly angel appear before me. ”Do not be afraid Mary”, the angel tells me, “You are to have a baby called Jesus”. “ But how can this be, for I am a virgin” I ask. He says that the Lord has chosen me and so I say “ Let it be done” and he vanishes like a candle blows out from the wind.

Refugees

Refugees

There are more than 50 million refugees in the world. Some of which may be crying as we speak.

Syria has a big refugee crisis as well as South-east asia, The Mediterranean and Africa and over 3 million have run from Syria to other countries such as Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq.

The Syrian civil war has pressed lots of refugees to run away. The Big reason is because of war and fighting. Picture this, crying, fear and  fighting. I sure wouldn’t want to live in a country like that.

The UNHCR helps the Syrian refugees and they also help the Filipino refugees. They help provide shelter, food and water.They help against extremely dangerous circumstances.

Scientific-Method-Layout

What’s in the box

Aim- We are trying to find out how far the two cars will go by watching them go down a ramp.

Hypothesis- The bigger car will go farther because it has more pressure because of its weight.

Method-  1.Make a ramp  2.Get two cars  3.Let the cars go down the ramp one by one with equal placing  4.see which one went the farthest

Results- Miss aspelling pushed one car down the ramp and let the other car go down on it’s own.

Conclusion- It wasn’t a fair test because the results weren't equal.

Brand-Complaint

To Nestle,

I really enjoy your Kit-Kats and they are extremely delicious but due to you having palm oil in your Kit-Kats I will have to stop eating your brand.

Did you know that by using palm oil you are chopping down the orangutans homes and there are now not many orangutans left because of this.

If you decide to stop using palm oil in your chocolate (such as Kit-Kats) please let me know because then I will go back to eating your chocolate. In the meantime I will eat Whittaker’s chocolate because it is also delicious and has no palm oil.

Regards,

Brianna McKenna
