Agħti tmiem lill-istorja tal-fellus l-ikrah.

Il-Fellus l-ikrah

Il-fellus l-ikrah mar fuq is-silġ u raqad. Wara li qam fir-rebbiegħa mar jara lilu nnifsu fl-ilma. Ra r-rifless tiegħu u nduna li hu mhux fellus ikrah iktar imma sar ċinju sabiħ. Wara li nduna li sar ċinju, għajtulu ċ-ċinji l-oħra: "Inti taf li int l-isbaħ wieħed? Għidilna l-istorja tiegħek." Il-fellus kien ferħan ħafna li sar ċinju għax issa ma jwaqqgħuhx għaċ-ċajt iktar. U għex ħajtu sabiħa maċ-ċinji l-oħra.

Suraiya

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Il-Fellus l-ikrah

Il-fellus kien imdejjaq u bil-ġuħ. Mexa lejn il-foresta u sab dar oħra. Tant kien għajjien li raqad quddiem il-bieb. Meta qam sab x'jiekol. Fl-aħħar sab mara twajba li ħadet ħsiebu. Darba minnhom meta mar ħdejn ix-xmara ra r-rifless tiegħu. Il-fellus baqa' mistagħġeb għax ra li kien ċinju sabiħ u grazzjuż. Meta ra hekk iċ-ċinju tar ħdejn ix-xiħa li kellha l-qattus u t-tieġieġa li keċċewh. Hu qagħad jitkessaħ quddiemhom. Iċ-ċinju qatt aktar ma kien imdejjaq iżda kien dejjem kuntent.

Il-fellus l-ikrah

Il-fellus l-ikrah mar fuq is-silġ u raqad. Bil-lejl sabu ċinju u ħadu fil-moħba tiegħu. Il-fellus l-ikrah qam fir-rebbiegħa. Beda jdur fil-moħba u sab ħafna flieles. Il-flieles kienu koroh, goffi u griżi. Fellus minnhom qallu: "Int x'qed tagħmel hawn?" Il-fellus l-ikrah qallu: "Jien ġejt hawn għax...." u qallu l-istorja tiegħu. Għadda ż-żmien u l-fellus l-ikrah sar ċinju sabiħ. Fetaħ ġwenħajh u beda jtir u jċafċaf fix-xmara. Il-fellus l-ikrah sab lill-mama' tiegħu. Iċ-ċinji ma baqgħux iwaqqgħuh għaċ-ċajt imma bdew jilgħabu miegħu.

Il-Fellus l-ikrah

Il-fellus l-ikrah mar fuq is-silġ u raqad. Huwa raqad tul ix-xitwa kollha. Imbagħad wara li qam induna li sar ċinju sabiħ. Wara li sar ċinju, iċ-ċinji l-oħra għajtulu u qalulu "inti taf li int l-isbaħ wieħed?" Iċ-ċinju kien ferħan ħafna. Imbagħad mar iċafċaf fix-xmara. Wara li ċafċaf mar wara ċ-ċinji l-oħra. Minn dakinhar iċ-ċinju baqa' l-iktar ċinju ferħan u sabiħ.

The Fasting Cat

My friend the mouse always plays in my house. "Come on, come out and play with me safely because I am fasting today so I don't eat and drink", says the cat. "Mum, mum... I want to play outside because the cat is fasting today", says the mouse. "No don't go out my son because this is the cat's new trick so it can eat you", says the mum. "Come on my brother lets play outside", says the mouse. "No our mum said not to play outside", says the brother. 

The mouse didn't listen to his brother's advice so he went outside. "Come on my friend lets play with the ball", says the mouse. "How nice to have freedom and play outside!", says the mouse. The cat attacked the mouse and caught him. "Help! Help! You said that you are fasting", says the mouse. "The cat does not fast you stupid mouse", says the cat. "I have not listened to my mum's advice and and that's why the cat caught me", says the mouse.

Jiena Annimal

Jiena tigra zghira jisimni Lijon u ghandi ghaxar snin. Jien twil mhux hazin u gismi huwa kollu b'pil iswed, abjad u orangjo. Nixbah ir-razza tal-qtates pero jien kemmxejn selvagg u go dar ma noqghodx zgur. Jien naf nghum u naf naqbez sa 5 metri boghod. Nghix go gungla flimkien ma' annimali ohra. Inhobb hafna l-laham u ghandi idi u snieni kbar u b'sahhithom ghal meta nohrog ghall-kacca. L-ikel favorit tieghi hu l-hanzir, ic-cerva u l-iljunfanti zghar. In-nies tad-dinja jippruvaw jaqbduni biex joqtluni u jehduli l-pil tieghi. Ghalhekk fadal biss madwar 3,500 tigra fid-dinja. Dan ifisser li r-razza tieghi taf tigi estinta mid-dinja.

Jiena qattusa jisimni Tutu. Ghandi disa' snin u jiena nnewwah meta jkolli l-guh. Gismi qasir u ghandi l-pil twil. Il-lewn tieghi huwa ginger u abjad u jiena gejja mir-razza tas-Sijamizi pura. Jiena helwa u cajtiera. Ninsab fid-dar. Fil-hin liberu tieghi noqghod nitla s-sigar u nilghab ma' xi corma tfal. Jiena habiba ma' hafna annimali. L-akbar habib tieghi huwa Yasir il-qattus. U l-ikel favorit tieghi huwa laham u hut.

Jien qattus helu u gej minn razza pura. Il-pilg tieghi hu abjad silg. Jien nibza mill-klieb. Inhobb nixrob il-halib u niekol il-hut. Jiena niehu hsieb il-kastell li nghix fih u l-principessa tiehu hsiebi. Jiena norqod kmieni u nqum kmieni. 

Dana

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jiena debba u l-isem tieghi huwa Lulu. Jiena ghandi ghaxar snin. Jiena nizher u jiena twila hafna. Il-pil tieghi huwa qasir u kannella, ghalkemm denbi u l-pil ta' rasi u saqajja huma bojod. Miniex debba ta' razza pura. Meta kont zghira sidi kien itellghani ghat-tigrijiet. Issa ninsab go razzett zghir ma' hafna annimali ohrajn. Hemm zwiemel ohra wkoll imma kulhadd ghandu l-istalla jew gagga tieghu. Inhobb hafna lit-tfal u niehu pjacir hafna meta jigi xi grupp tal-iskola jzuruna.

Jien jisimni Beraq u jien leopard tas-silg. Jien zghir ghax ghadni ferh u ghandi disa' snin. Nghix ma' ommi u hija fil-muntanji tal-Himalayas. Ir-razza tieghi gejja mill-qtates selvaggi u r-razza taghna mhallta. Il-lewn tieghi huwa abjad bit-tikek suwed. Gismi huwa bil-pil u s-suf. Il-hoss tieghi huwa 'uhwa, uhwa'. Meta jkun hemm hafna silg jiena u hija noqoghdu nidgerbu fis-silg. Bil-lejl il-mama' tghallimna nikkaccjaw biex nieklu xi annimali. Ahna ghandna denbna twil biex meta jkun il-bard nitgezwru fih.

Il-Holma ta' Toni

Darba wahda, Toni gie mill-iskola ghajjien u ddecieda li jiehu naghsa. Wara ftit hin instema xi haga jhabbat mat-tieqa ta' Toni. Kien aljen ikrah u ahdar! Kien liebes flokk tac-cingi u kellu ghajnejh homor. L-aljen ried jidhol ghax kienet hafna kesha. L-aljen ra lil Toni rieqed u habbatlu mat-tieqa biex iqajjmu. It-tifel fetahlu t-tieqa u l-aljen dahal gol-kamra.

Toni ha qatgha kbira meta ra l-aljen. L-aljen spjegalu kif wasal. Wara, laghbu l-loghba favorita ta' Toni, il-loghba tad-draguni. Wara, sar il-hin u l-aljen mar fin-navigetta spazjali tieghu, u telaq lejn il-pjaneta tieghu. Toni qam mahsud u nduna li kienet biss holma.

The Lonely Spider

There was a spider which wasn't an ordinary spider. This spider was so ugly that it never had friends. One day this spider was on its web and said "Uhhh!!! Why am I so ugly?" A spider came. It was a girl spider. This spider didn't care how other spiders or insects looked. This spider didn't have friends either and it was lonely like the ugly spider. One day the girl spider and the ugly spider met. The ugly spider said "No don't look at my face, it's ugly". "Don't worry I don't care how you look", said the girl spider. The ugly spider was shy but it showed its face anyway. The spiders began to know each other better and they went to places together. First they went to the forest and they saw the birds and all the trees. Then they travelled to the park. They had so much fun together! They started to be best friends.

The ladybug which got mixed up.

Once, a ladybug was sitting on a beautiful white flower. It was morning, on a lovely spring day, and the ladybug decided to go to the zoo. It saw a polar bear and said, "I wish I had strong legs like a polar bear." And the wish came true. Then, it went up to the snails It sighed, "And I wish to have big eyes like a snail". And it came true.

Next, it went next to the flamingos. "I wish I was handsome like a flamingo." And the wish came true. Then, it went  near the bees. "I wish I have a sting like a bee." It suddenly came true. Then, the ladybug went to the butterflies and said "I really wish I had a long tongue like a butterfly". It came true too. 

Then it noticed that it was bad like this. None of the people knew it was a ladybug. So it wished to be itself once more.

Jealous Jay

There was once a blue jay called Mordi Jay who lived in the Amazon. He lived with his friends Dj Spider and Stick insect. They did lots of things together like fishing and other things. Mordi Jay was jealous of Dj Spider because he wanted to shoot webs like him. He wished to be half spider and half bird. His wish came true. Two days later he got bored because he could not fly. So, he went to Stick insect for help. 

As Stick insect was a wizard he had one potion left. When he drank the potion he was a bird again. Mordi Jay learned his lesson, "Never be jealous if your friends".

The Sad Spider

It was a hot summer night in the forest and Mr. Spider Twit was hungry and sad. Across the tree, Spider Twit could see some food, but he could not reach it. He tried hard to make a cobweb but he did not know how. After several attempts he gave up. As he walked along in hope of finding something to eat, he soon found himself in a jungle. In the jungle he met his friend Mr. Spider Vissledan, and Spider Twit was very glad to see him. Visseldan was one of the smartest spiders he knew and he was also very kind and helpful. Spider Twit knew that his friend would surely teach him how to make a web. In no time he was making cobwebs and getting all the food he wanted. Spider Twit was finally happy.

A Descriptive Story (Picture Composition - Macmillan Language p. 163)

The Kind-Hearted Giant

It was a nice sunny day. In the giant's garden, the children were playing. The sun was shining, the birds were twittering and the butterflies were flying.

Suddenly it turned winter. The garden was covered with snow and the sky turned black. The giant saw a poor child calling for help in the distance.

It turned winter because God wanted to test if the giant would do the right thing or not.

When the giant helped the poor little boy God saw that he made the right choice and turned it into spring again. The giant was a very kind-hearted man.

Yasir. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One day there was a giant who played with the children everyday. The birds sang more beautifully everyday. Butterflies fluttered everywhere and trees were green. They played in the beautiful garden. 

In winter, snow fell on the grass. Everything turned white and cold. The giant saw a poor child calling for help. He felt cold but at the same time he felt sorry for the child. 

So, the giant went to help the little, helpless child. Then he sat on his knees and started to play with the child. While he was in the garden doing this, the garden turned green. Spring came!

The giant smiled happily at the child. Pink flowers were on the tree's branches. The giant felt very sorry for his behaviour. He learnt that he should never be selfish. Spring came back and the children played in the garden.

A Friendly Giant

Once upon a time there lived a friendly giant. The giant spent his days playing with the children in a beautiful garden. The garden was full of large trees and the birds flew above singing and twittering. Children played with the swings. 

When winter approached the garden was empty. No children were in sight. The giant was lonely and sad as he looked around the snowy trees helplessly. 

Suddenly the giant saw a boy trying very hard to climb the tree. The boy was trying to take shelter under the tree. The giant approached the boy and lifted him up the tree with his gentle big hands. 

Winter was finally over and spring had arrived. The boy was still on the tree and the friendly giant had become his closest friend. They lived happily ever after. 

Adam

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One day there lived a huge giant who used to like playing with the children. They always played happily and cheerfully in the garden. 

Winter had started, and the days were becoming cold, snowy, windy and stormy. On one particular day the sky became black. In the garden there weren't any birds nor the children as it was a cloudy day. 

All of a sudden, he saw a poor child trying to climb the tree. When the giant saw this he went to help the poor child to climb. When the child climbed the tree, the tree started glowing and the snow was melting down. 

The giant was very happy when he saw this happening. They talked a bit and the poor boy promised he will visit the giant whenever it is an ugly day.

The Kind Giant

One day there was a kind giant who loved his garden and the children who came to play in his lovely garden. The garden had tall trees with golden fruit and butterflies. 

The children got a punishment and they could not go to the garden. The kind giant was very sad so winter came. The garden was frozen. The giant saw a poor boy under an iced tree. 

The kind giant helped the poor boy who was freezing by putting him on a branch of the tree and the boy was happy. 

When they were talking shiny, pink flowers came out on the tree. Winter was going away and spring was coming back!

A Report about... My Favourite Place

My favourite place is the playing field, not far away from our home. It is big and lovely and I can play hide and seek with my friends. I hear birds, crying babies and children. I play and run. No one is allowed with roller blades, roller skates, bicycles and dogs in order to keep the playing field clean and take care of it. I go with my family and friends and we talk, laugh, say funny jokes and stories and play in the see-saw. I love it because I can go quite often since it is near where I live. 

Amira

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like to go to Bugibba. Bugibba is my favourite place. 

You can do a lot of things in Bugibba. You can go swimming in the blue sea, or you can eat in the many restaurants. You can go shopping or watch a film at the cinema. You can go for a nice walk or see some fish at the Aquarium. You can even see a shark! Many people come to Bugibba especially in summer. 

I like Bugibba because you can do a lot of things and meet many people.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My favourite place in the whole wide world is the Sliema Front. It is beautiful in winter as well as in summer. It is nice for a lovely walk on a cold rainy day and even for a refreshing swim on a hot summer day. 

I hear the constant cars passing by, the birds chirping in the trees and people having fun on a summer day at the beach. 

In the evening, when I go for a walk with my family, people are out walking or perhaps still swimming. I love to hear the sound of people having fun. 

I always spend my weekends and holidays in Sliema at my grandma's house. It is the best place to enjoy yourself. 

Adam

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My favourite place is Valletta, the capital city of Malta. It is a very nice city. 

You can hear street musicians and ship horns as there is also the harbour. 

You can see street artists. They do artistic things like crafts and paintings. You always find lots of people. There are many shops. 

You can go to the coffee shops, sweet shops and the Barakka Lift. I like going to Valletta alone but I can't because I am still young.

Description of a person 

Mr. Green, the gardener

  

It is a beautiful day outside and Mr. Green decided to go outside and dig up some soil for new plants to put in his garden. 

Mr. Green has Buttercups, Daisies and Hibiscus which the bees, butterflies, crows and the frogs that live in his pond all love!

In the background there is a big, green, bushy tree and thick grass.

He is wearing a yellow coat, a white shirt, a blue cap, green wellington boots and blue trousers. 

Mr. Green uses a spade to dig up soil and he also uses a rake to break up soil, smoothen seedbeds and remove leaves.

I am a Chair

Oh, hi there. I didn't see you! I'm Siguna, the walking, talking, singing chair. Don't think I'm happy writing this to you, because the truth is... I do NOT like people! I mean honestly, do you have to put your bum on my face?

I come from a workshop in Malta. I was a new, clean, shiny chair. I was a happy chair, especially at night when the shop was closed. I used to roam around freely, I used to sing... but I often got lonely since I was the only one that could talk and move. This night routine continued for about one year and three months, until I was purchased by a somewhat young lady with a grinning smile on her face. 

As soon as I arrived at my new home, I was surprised to see that the lady had six children, four cats, a loving husband and a nanny. I imagined a very exciting new life, until the nanny stuck a sticker to my forehead with capital, bold letters saying that I was... their new naughty chair! From that day onwards my life turned from a heavenly dream to a nightmare in hell. Children were placed on me continuously... some screamed, some cried, some banged and some also flipped me over whilst kicking me from head to leg! The children weren't the only problem because the cats loved me too. They sat on me whenever I was vacant (usually when the kids were asleep). 

I loved the cats in winter because they kept me warm since I was made out of metal, but in summer I loathed them since they made me feel hot. Their claws' scratches together with the children's dents made on me by their kicking, ruined my appearance altogether. I became a dull, dented, scratched and tired chair. Children meant chaos, headaches, no rest and boredom. 

I thought that my life would be like this forever but AAAHHH, I was wrong! The kids learnt what it meant to be punished on a naughty chair and within a year I was back to my normal self: singing, walking and now talking to chair friends around the whole house.

Hello! I am Softy the massage chair. I am quite young because I am only two years old. I am big, soft and comfortable. I am made of black, soft silk. 

I live in an enormous airport in Dubai. Lots of different people sit on me everyday, Italians, Germans, Libyans, black, blond, fat and thin. People treat me very bad because they always fart on me! Near me there is another chair like me named Comfy. He is my best friend and we're always chatting and making fun of people. People have to pay to get a massage from us. Unfortunately we don't get any money because our master takes it. My job is to give a massage to the people's back, head, arms and legs. I enjoy being a chair because I like meeting new and different people and make them happy. Bye now because a man just squashed me. 

by Zubair

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am a chair which comes from Germany. When I was five a rich lady paid some money to sell me to a workshop where I was introduced to a lot of other chairs. It was dull and lonely sitting in that dark and musty workshop. I am six years old now and I have adventured a lonely year in the workshop. People came in and laughed at my state of untidiness. I am made from wood and I am in the first room. I hate being the untidy chair because everyone laughs and jumps on me. They hurt me a lot when they think that I am made from dead wood and that I have no feelings but I have and I feel hurt that everyone jeers at me. A chair in the workshop is also treated like me. I like him because he is a very good friend of me. We talk together during the day and night because chairs can't sleep. 

by Hanien

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am a chair that comes from a hotel. I like watching TV. I am made of soft, fluffy and brown cushion. 

I am now in Year 4 class and I have so many other friends that are chairs like me. I also have a friend table that plays with me during breaks. Oh I forgot! I am eight years old and I am almost nine. 

I hate being a chair because everyone sits on me with their bottoms. I hate it when very fat people sit on my soft face. I like it when young children jump and play around on me. 

One day a fat woman came and sat on me. She was so heavy that she broke my leg. The class teacher took me to the handy man and he got me a new one. 

I don't like being a chair but this is my life. I have to start enjoying it and try my best to be happy!
