RETURN KINDNESS.

We got gifts from Santa yesterday. The people who were giving gifts 

did not even know us.

But they were extending their kindness to us and were reaching out to people whom they did not know.

This also reminded me of saturday news.

 it said that a girl named Grace got killed in west Auckland when she was visiting New Zealand. I Feel sad because that man had no reason to kill her.

What makes me happy is that there are good people as well, like the ones who gave use Christmas gifts. I want to pay their kindness back.

I want to spread the message of christmas to everyone. Please be kind and helpful to all human beings because my teacher Mrs Sharma said what goes around come around. Like if you

 be kind to someone they will be kind to you.

I want to reach out to every

person I come across. I cannot give

them gifts because I do not earn

money. But I can be polite, kind, helpful and sharing.

HISTORY OF TELEPHONE IN THE OLDEN DAYS.

Telephone was first made in 1876. The very first telephone has horseshoe-shaped magnet there are an electromagnet is wrapped around a different sort of magnet, called a permanent magnet, stronger. And the last one That I am talking about is a wire. Wire is attached to these two terminals to take electric  signals to and from another telephone.

HALLOWEEN.

THE HISTORY OF HALLOWEEN.
All Souls Day was celebrated similarly to Samhain, with big bonfires, parades, and dressing
up in costumes as saints, angels
and devils. The All Saints Day celebration was also called All-hallows or All-hallowmas (from Middle English Alholowmesse meaning All Saints’ Day) and the night before it, the traditional night of Samhain in the Celtic religion, began to be called All-Hallows Eve and, eventually, Halloween.


Halloween began as the festival of Samhain. It was part of the ancient Celtic religion in Britain and other parts of Europe. At the end of summer, the Celts thought the barrier between our world and the world of ghosts and spirits got really thin.


The children who say Trick or treat the children will trick you if you don’t give a Treat And Halloween is real but in new zealand it’s not.

screen that showed lots of houses
and  a Road, cars and the sky, a
big volcano which was far away.
Next the Tv went on after 3 minutes.

It was talk about what is going on.
