Grace

G r a c e

Hi! I’m Grace, my surname is Marini and I’m eleven years old. My family consists of four people: my brother Jason, me, my father Giampietro and my mother Michela.

My house is very big, its colours are yellow and light grey, it’s beautiful. I have a big bedroom with a lot of photos, the bed is white and yellow, it is soft. In front of my house there’s a big garden with a gazebo, a Summer swimming pool and  nine different trees.

I have got  nine pets: two guinea pigs, two turtles, five little parrots.

My favourite film is Pirates of the Caribbean, it’s a fantastic film and Captain Sparrow is funny. My favourite singer is Lady Ga-Ga, I love the song “Alejandro” and my favourite band is Green Day, their song I love is “21 guns” (musical version).

Bye bye from Grace.

Disneyland

Disneyland Parks

There are two Disneyland Parks in the USA. They are theme parks located in California and in Florida. They are  owned and operated by the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts division of the Walt Disney Company.

The concept of amusement park, as currently understood, was born in the United States with Disneyland Los Angeles in 1951.

The Orlando Walt Disney World Resorts in Florida is a complex of four big theme parks:

Magic Kindgom Park,

Epcot Center,

 Disney's Hollywood Studios

 and Disney's Animal Kingdom.

There are also two water parks, six golf courses, more than twenty hotels and various shopping arears and entertainment. It was opened in 1971. It is the largest complex of theme parks in the world. Orlando is in Florida.

There are many other amusement parks in the USA, but the first Disneyland Park near Los Angeles is the only theme park designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney himself.

Snow in November

Friday November 26^th, 2010

Hello teacher,

I'm Giada of class 1LSA.

Today it snows and this already makes me think about CHRISTMAS TIME.

I have found in Internet the text of the song  "WHITE CHRISTMAS":

White Christmas

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.

Irving Berlin, 1942
