National Day in the UAE

My School Celebration

National day is the day that the United Arab Emirates was formed. National day is celebrated on the 2nd of December, but we celebrated it on 24th of November at my school. The day started with assembly. We had to stand for a very long time. We stood up just to wait for the kindergarten students. After assembly grades 3-9 watched a slide show that Mrs. Fatima made. It showed places for tourist to go and types of transposition in the UAE. Grade 1-2 students had to stamp their fingerprints on a big piece of paper. After it looked like the UAE flag. After all that we had to watch performances. The only problem was that all the performances were in Arabic but not all of us speak Arabic or understand Arabic. Then we all ate. Most of the food was dessert,which was delicious. After we ate we went home. I liked the celebration.

Natural Resources

We went to Hatta and we saw lots of natural resources. A rock is natural resource and sand and water too.

This wall is made out of rocks and the oasis is behind it. Do you see the oasis?

The big hill is ash and ash is what is left of something you burn. This is where the blocks are made and the blocks are made from concrete.

This is my house and my house is made out of concrete. What is your house made out of ?

Pollution Around Al Ain

Pollution like this bottle is bad for the environment and animals. People should stop littering. If animals eat litter they well die like in Happy Feet.

We saw lots of litter in the desert. People drink the water and throw the bottles on the ground.

People throw bags and the wind blows the bags to the trees.

The factory is making air pollution and it is bad for the environment.
