The Eels in my pond

Some nights me and Rhys chop up some meat and go down to our pond and then we through it to the eels in the pond just down below our house we have one eel called Ian and some other eels called Spinner, Mr Brown, Small and Silver. The eel called Ian is the friendliest eel in the pond you can lean down from the bank and stroke him and sometimes you can lift half of his body out of the water and he doesn’t mind. Also Ian is the biggest and the strongest eel in the pond.
One time not that long ago we didn’t have rain for ages and I was starting to think that the pond would dry out and there would be no more eels, and in the end the pond did dry up and I did find some dyed up eel on the dry out mud of the pond and I hoped that Ian was not one of them, I knew that we needed some rain or the pond would turn into grass.
One day there was raining all day so at lunch time I put one my rain coat and I went down to the pond in the rain and I could see that the pond was getting deep with water again. The next day it was sunny and I biked down to the pond and the pond was as deep as it had ever been and that night me and Rhys went down to the pond and we saw about three eels there were Ian, spinner and Small.

When we dissected a sheep

On Friday morning Mr Chapman told us that pat was coming to school, he said that he was going to dissect a sheep to see all of the body parts because we are learning about the muscles of the body, we dissected a sheep because a sheep almost has the same body parts as the human body. After morning tea me went back inside and then pat arrived and we went outside by the offal hole bought a sheep over and Mr Chapman said that we have to wear gloves if we wanted to hold some parts of the sheep. Then pat got his knife and cut the sheep open first he showed us the Stomach and then he cut the ribs off and cut the kidneys out and put them on the ground he also cut out the small intestine and we stretched it out and it was 14 meters long, and Pat said that a humans small intestine is about 30 meters long, then he cut open the rumen and it was full of digested grass and Mr Chapman felt the inside edge of it and he said that it was the weirdest thing that he had ever felt. Then Mr Chapman told us to all put some gloves so that we could hold some of the sheep’s body parts, First pat handed out the liver and we all had a feel of it and it felt really slimy and then we all had another feel of the small intestine then he cut out the bottom of its mouth and then he showed us the wind pipe and how the ear gets to the heart and how the heart pumps the blood around the body. Then he cut out the eye and the lens of the eye came out and we felt it and it felt like hard jelly, After that we went back in school and the sheep went down the offal hole.

When i went duck shooting

On Sunday I was home and I had nothing to do so I rang Angus to see if he was home but there was no answer so I went outside and I saw the old possum trap and I tried to set it but it was broken s o tried to fix it, but after a while I thought that when rhys got back from getting some firewood so I went inside and I started to play underground Rivals on my PSP and then the Clint and Brent turned up on our drive way I Clint asked if dad was home but he was on the farm getting firewood with Rhys. I went duck shooting with them first we went down to the flat down below our house we saw five ducks but we mist the shot and they got away. Then we went back up to the house ad we got in the Ute and we went down to the start of the drake’s drive way and turned off onto my dads farm and we saw some more ducks on a pond that we went to but we couldn’t shoot at them because there were some of dads cattle that were to close to the pond, we carried on and we came across another pond and we didn’t see any ducks there but then one came out of the bushes and then it flew away. After that we drove up to dads old woolshed up the end of Taihore road and we walked down the clay farm track and when we were walking we saw some ducks on the hill side and they started to fly away but Clint shot two of them in four shots, one of the ducks was on the ground trying to get away but I went and got it and Brent span it’s neck around and around and then it’s head came off. Then we put the ducks on the ducks on the front of the motorbike and we went down the clay track some more and we got to the end of the track to a big pond but there were no ducks there either. We went back to the woolshed and we went up another track to see if we could see any turkeys but there weren’t any on that field then we drove back down to the truck and we went down the road and Clint dropped me off at my house and they went home.
