My family in France


I am Manon Jousset and I’ve family living in France. That’s because my father is French, so I am French too. It’s great that I go to France so often! But sometimes I don’t like it. Because every time we go to France, it takes eight hours to get there! But when we are arrived it’s worth it! In the summer the weather is beautiful, my grandparents have a very large garden so I can do lots of things. But if I go (for example) with Christmas to France it can be very cold! Sometimes it snows, but this year there was only rain, rain and rain. That’s very boring, because I don’t know what to do there! When the weather is not good enough to go outside I’m bored! They have a video-player, but I saw all the movies already a couple of times! So then I help my grandmother with things or I play a game with her, for example rummicub. And I have a little brother of 11 years old, but he’s always playing on his gameboy, so I can’t do something with him. But if the weather is beautiful I like to be over there, because my grandparents live in a very big house with a large garden! But it’s also good for my French at school, because now I have good notes, because I know already lots of French words! My conclusion is: I enjoy it to have family living in France, and it is very handy for school of course!! But I miss my family when I am at home, because then they are so far away from me!

Let's go for the animals on our planet


Our website is about how our human actions have consequenses for the animals on our planet. When we think about environmental pollution, we think about how we humans are confronted with the mistakes we make with our environtment. But nobody seems to realise that it also has desastrous consequences for the animals, except for the foundations like Greenpeace and WWF. Leaking oil ships, the melting pole and the cutting down of habitat are things that threaten the wildlife on our planet. Read all of it on our website: http://www.partypeeps2000.com/members/environment.aspx

We are concerned about the environment


As an assignment for geography, we (Arian, Stephan and Sophie, T3A, Hofstad Lyceum) made a website about the environment. On our website there is information about electricity and the environment, non-renewable and renewable resources, oil and the environment and new technology of the oil industry. You can also find answers on the questions "Why are we concerned about the environment?", "Who cares for the environment?", "Why does wildlife need protection?" and "Why does Antarctica need protection?" The link to our website is http://www.environmental-concerns.websitemaker.nl/environment .
