Picture Prompt writing by Jamal

One sunny day me and my family went to the zoo in the afternoon at 12.30. I was so happy going to the zoo. We arrived at 1.00 and it was crowded with people. The keepers were busy doing the paperwork. We waited until the keeper was free.

 Later we signed up and went to look at the animals. First we saw a majestic zebra running across the field like a cheetah. Second we saw a walrus swimming along the pool. Third we saw a tamarin monkey having an enjoyable time swinging along the monkey bars. Then we saw a dangerous lion feasting on meat. Five we saw a wonderful spot to eat. It was so exciting and interesting because there were birds flying on top of our heads and it was blocked out. 

After eating, we went back to the lion. It got noisy cause the lion started roaring. Then we went to the giraffes. People were so entertained because there were people riding on the giraffes back! It was fascinating.

 Lastly the elephants. They were wild but beautiful. Then at 3.00 we went home and it was a fantastic day.

What Jamal did for Mothers Day

On  Sunday 10th of May, my family and I celebrated Mothers Day with my uncle, aunty, sister, cousins, and my nana.

We bought KFC for breakfast and some chips. It was so yummy. My aunty planned to go on a Pokemon hunt. But first, we went to my nana's house and said Happy Mothers day to her. 

After my sister and I stayed and did some things together.

After about 2 hours, they came back and said it was cool and fun. 

I wish I could do it again.
