I planned to make the card with some roses
on it. Sandy helped me with the drawing. We
had fun working together. It took me two hours
to finish. Lots of things went wrong during that
time. I made some mistakes when I wrote the
sentence “Happy Birthday, Mum”. I kept spelling
the words wrong. I was too excited!

Post-task
Saturday, 30 October
Father’s birthday is coming, so I decided to put up a bookshelf for my father because he loves reading and has many books.
I ordered the building materials online. My best friend Daniel came to help me and brought some tools. We read the instructions first and quickly started to work. I had a little trouble using the hammer. Daniel taught me how to use it properly and we had fun working together.
We also tried to paint the bookshelf white-my father’s favourite colour. When we finished, it looked really cool.
I feel happy with my work and I believe my father will be proud of it as well.
