Here Comes The Stegosaurus!

A stegosaurus is a dinosaur from the Jurassic period around 150 million years ago.

A stegosaurus was a  large and heavy dinosaur. A fully grown stegosaurus was around 9 metres or 30 feet in length. It could grow up to 4 metres or 14 feet in height. It was nearly 5,000 kilograms in weight!

The Stegosaurus is the most famous dinosaur from a group of dinosaurs known as Stegosauria. Stegosauria dinosaurs were all herbivores and had rows of unique bones the developed into plates and spines along their back and tail.

Did you know the the name 'Stegosaurus' comes from the Greek works 'stegos' meaning 'roof and 'sauros' meaning lizard?

Stegosaurus fossils have been found in North America and more recently in Portugal.

Superhero Parties are Awesome!

On a sunny weekend on the 15th of February I attended a birthday party. The party was at Farmcove. I went with my family and friends. It was a superhero themed party. The birthday boy was was turning four.

When we arrived, there were lots of people dressed up as superheroes. some were dressed as superman, some were spider man and some were wearing iron man suits. When it was eating time, I ate some rice, pizza, watermelon, and some meat like pork and chicken.

I always win because my friends are very easy to beat. After that, our parents called us because there was ice cream for us to eat. The ice cream was vanilla flavoured. After we have eaten, I went to back to the bouncy castle. While my friends and I were in the bouncy castle, it started to deflate and we became stuck in the deflated bouncy castle. Finally I got out of the bouncy castle and our parents told us to go home. Before going home, my brother gave me some more ice cream and I said "Thank you!"

Finally we went home. I was very happy and my brother wanted to go back as well. I ate some lollies that were from the party on the way home. I think I might have my own superhero themed party for my next birthday.

I know I can do this when I use time words like 'before' in my writing.
