Descriptive Sentences

In the Aussie rainforest I found a clump of soggy and smelly moss, two spearheads for a ancient spear and a big mountain of what I thought were leaves but were really Monarch butterflies!

Raffle ticket! Made me laugh again. Good peacock titles!

I think we are up to a new letter with the game.

I am learning new PSE6 things.

Your peacock titles were so good they made me laugh. I not only laugh when things are funny, I also laugh when I am pleased or see something clever. :)

This is like when we are at work and we talk to each other over our laptops.

Let in the front office is buying our new set of laptops for the other people. Glad we have ours. She is getting them from a catalogue for "work" buying, and I put in my requirement of 2 GB of Ram and a 15 inch screen.

They will be a brand called Optima. We just have to ensure they aren't dropped and are not stuffed up! We will have to move our desk so that we are facing them, they will have to be in front of us. So that we can watch them being used.

They will get ordered after we get back and will take up to 2 weeks to come. I will put Took on one if her laptop is not bought yet, and give the 3 boys first option.

P.S. The descriptive writing was excellent!

We need to do you a dragon avatar, like my pretty gold one that Zoolatry made me.
You can use it for the holidays and also when I transfer over to the email address that reflects your blog name.

Yes, it will the same avatar (little picture) for all class memeber people but... they are mainly outside kicking a soccer ball or playing xbox while you are inside on the laptop.

GO to dashboard, edit profile, photo, and put in a dragon pic.

When we get back into school remind me and I will change you over to the new address.

Leslie said...

No problem with the new address, you will be the author, and I will have full access for the rest of this year, like I am with Movies.

Then at the end of the year, you can change your password and only you and Clue will have access.

The blog stays exactly the same. We are only adding you personally on as an author, then we "delete" the current author - which is all of the other people we work with.

So at work, only you and I will have access - and Clue of course.

We are up to I in our game. I am enjoying it. :)

We have had fun learning from our laptops. It is starting to happen in other places, I have been hearing a bit on the news. We got in first. :)

Look at this:

Can you tell me what is in it, how it was done?

I do this with Took, to teach her how to work out how to do it.

"I think that the photo is a groupie and it was made with an overlay. Dropped opacity could come into it too. Do all that then add the elements then you're done! (I think)."

- word art, dragonfly element and glitter swirl element, both recoloured, flower stamp on the bottom left hand corner, overlay, with another overlay beneath it, yes - reduced opacity and a gorgeous recolour of the whole.

Overlays really finish off the edges. I put the same one in twice, but turned it sideways on one of them and recoloured it for the one called Words of Wisdom on Kaleidoscope.

Alos, word art makes a pic look so well finished. :)

Yep, have popped your name in. :)

Leslie said...

You did very well with your explanation of the picture.

Happy birthday to Clue!!

I got Alessandro back from England at 3pm.

I'm really enjoying the geography game. :)

Leslie said...

I had Orange in mind but was waiting for you to get it.

When we finish this game, YOU get to help me pick the next game - we will decide it together. Same format, different game.

Alessandro went on roller coasters in Blackpool while he was there - I have scrapped 2 of them, and have one to go when I get a free plopper as a chat bonus, from Nicole, in 3 hours.

They take pics of everyone on the roller coasters, then you pay 6 pounds to get one photo. He got 3.

Leslie said...

How are you finding your new ISP?

No Took news - means nothing new there.

We only have 7 more to do in this game. Any ideas what you would like to have next to replace the Australian towns idea?

You get to help me choose.

Raffle ticket to dog merlin please for trying hard in the new game. Thank you.

Hi Slinky,
For the next game, do you want to discuss with Ms S for the topics such as the Capitals of the countries or big commercial cities of each county or even sport’s name for the coming Olympic game. The other topics could be health food or children books. - clue
