Our wonderful grandparents!!

Our wonderful grandparents!!

The girls in primary five would like to thank all the grandparents who came to the special assembly for grandparents last week. It was wonderful to see so many people there and of course we also thought about the grandparents who could not be present. They are all very important people.

             In class we are reading George’s Marvellous Medicine and have been looking in detail at the characters of George and his grandma. We decided to think of pairs of verbs and adverbs to describe George’s grandma.

Girls suggested that George’s grandma    

  smiles nastily                glares icily        stares wickedly     

        eats bugs noisily           drinks her tea loudly      sits lazily       

gobbles insects quickly           looks at people scarily

 

Then we made a similar list for our own grandmas.

We said that they

sit on a chair quietly         drink tea politely      eat apples fast        

                     smile beautifully            walk gracefully                

 hug wonderfully             react excitedly             love us all equally

I think that there is no doubt that we are so glad that our grandparents are not at all like George’s grandma.!!!!!
