Story: Building LEGO

I have a LEGO conveyor.
We built interesting trucks.
I play with the trucks.
I have a big truck that can hold too many things.
We will build the LEGO mine.
We are going to build a big crane.
The instructions tell me how to build that big dump truck.
We built the driller.
If you turn the back of the driller it will drill the mine.
The LEGO colours are pretty.

Story: Colouring Pictures

I draw pictures of galaxies.
I draw pictures of camels.
I draw pictures of circles and then I draw pictures of squares.
I draw with pencil crayons and crayons and ink.
I draw magma in the volcanoes.
I draw storybooks.
They are neat.
It is nice to bring pictures and books to people.
It is fun to draw pictures of rainbows.
It is fun to draw people too.

Story: Robot Vacuum

The robot vacuum is really neat!
The robot vacuum sucks up bits.
If a red light flashes on the vacuum it means that we have to charge its batteries at its home.
The lighthouse blocks the robot vacuum from going anywhere else.
If the green light flashes on the lighthouse that means that the battery is running out.
Under the robot vacuum there is a little spinner that picks up the bits.
If the vacuum misses its home it tries again!

Science: Solids, Liquids and Gases (Part 2)

We put ice into a cup.
Ice is a solid.
We put the cup into hot water.
The ice cubes melted away.
They became water.
Water is a liquid.
We put the water in a pan on the stove.
The water went away.
It became a gas.
The stove is hot.
Heat made the liquid change to a different state of matter.
We also put water in the freezer and it turned into an ice cube.
Cold changed a liquid to a solid.
