Topic Sentence

Every week I watch the best program on television, Grey’s Anatomy, which is about a group of doctors with interesting jobs and even more interesting personalities. Izzie is a cardiothoracic surgeon who is always happy and cheerful until she gets cancer and becomes grumpy and annoyed all the time. Meredith is Izzie’s best friend, who is great except for the fact that she brings Izzie down by constantly telling her how upset she is with life. Christina is a brain surgeon and she doesn’t say much, but when she does it’s always dark and spooky. They’re all friends, but they spend a lot of time making each other upset. Together they make a great show, with great personalities to laugh at.

If I could meet any character in the world it would be Luna Lovegood from the Harry Potter series! I would love to meet Luna Lovegood because she has something different in her then anyone in the Harry Potter series. She knows about the craziest creatures like Crumple-Horned Snorkack, Boggarts and Grindylow. Luna has a curious mind and would be a very interesting person to meet.

Topic Sentence:The day I would like to forget

The first day of kindergarten was different for me (I have just came to Vancouver). My mom took me inside the classroom, and my teacher asked me how old I was, and I said "15" in Hebrew. After that I was so embarrassed, and I ran, and hid behind a door. As a five year old this was, a horrible day.

A day I would like to forget when I accidently went in to the men's bathroom. Right after we got outside we were walking to the parking lot and I said to my dad "I need to go to the washroom!" My dad said "Sure it's right there." So I walked down and I didn't see the men and women sign because I was looking at the clown blowing balloons and making animals. I walked while I watched and I looked at ahead of me and didn't see the signs. I accidently went into the men's bathroom and when I got there I smelled something horrible...! I saw a man and I thought "Where am I?" I realized I was in the men's bathroom. I almost screamed but instead I ran out so I wouldn't see something else. It was the worst time of my life!!

The End!!

I enjoy playing baseball

Four times a week I am at the baseball diamond playing ball regardless of rain or shine. Although it may seem like a bit much, but I love playing baseball. Every Tuesday I have a practice after school. I have a game every Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Baseball is a very fun sport and gives me exercise! Sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. However I still love playing the game and that is why it is fine with me playing baseball four days a week.

Violet Boudelaire

From the moment I opened the first page of the first book of The Series of Unfortunate Events I was hooked. But not hooked on just anything. I was hooked on a girl, just a few years older than me. Her name was Violet Baudelaire. There was another part that got me hooked. It was the way Lemony Snicket captures the sorrow of the three Baudelaire orphans. Which still gives me the chills. I would love to meet Violet some day so that she can share her plans of how to leave the source of her misfortune and find a happier way of living. But of course she is just an imaginary character in Lemony Snicket’s mind.

Camp Hatikvah

Camp Hatikvah is one of my favorite places to be. Every year, I step off the bus, memories flooding back from the past years, and I am ready to make more. I love being with all my friends, having fun, not worrying about a thing, just making it the best summer ever. Camp is my home away from home!

Dani's Zip-lining

When you go up to Whistler Mountain you think ski. When I go up to Whistler Mountain I think zip-lining. I love to go zip-lining. You feel the rush of adrenalin right when you step off the ledge. The wind rushing past you as you increase speed on a downhill. When zip-lining you feel as though you are flying and free falling at the same time. Yet going through the trees or open air. You have freedom, it is like nothing you have ever felt before; and I just love it all.

Spongebob Squarepants

Two years ago, I memorized the SpongeBob theme song. Since then, I’ve wanted to meet him in person! Every time I turn on the T.V. I search for SpongeBob on guide. I think I’ve been obsessed with him ever since I realized that his name tells us that he’s a sponge named Bob that wears square pants. I want to meet him because I think we could really be friends! We both have weird laughs, we are kind of spazzy, and both have great friends!

Spending All Summer at Camp

Camp is always the highlight of my summer. I wish I could stay longer. A month at camp Hatikvah is always a blast! Filled with sports, docks and all my friends, you’d think it couldn’t get any better. If only I could stay the whole summer at my favourite camp! Well, I’m not too worried, when I’m a S.I.T I get to stay for the whole summer! Just a couple more years of waiting.

Batman

Ever since was I little I always wanted to meet Batman.

I remember going to my cousin's house every Friday and wanting to play Batman and Robin with him and my brother. they would never let me, so in the end I always ended up being the side kick or the bad guy in which they wanted to kill. even though i never got to be Batman I still dreamed of meeting Batman.

Goku

Goku, an amazing character in a really great show, is a character

I would like to meet. He is the main character in

Dragon Ball Z. Goku has awesome super powers. He can turn

his power level high and low, he flies, he can turn into

an ape, he can shoot blue energy from his

hands, he can draw energy from others and he uses his

powers for good causes.

Every time I go to my locker I get pushed and shoved in the dreaded “old wing”. There’s this hallway in my school that desperately needs to be replaced. There are tons of teachers and students who need to get places on time. Every time your in the hall you get pushed and tripped on because it’s so small and narrow, and there are so many people trying to get through.

Topic sentences

Its never fun playing sports on a gravel field at our school that's why I think we need grass. You always have that urge to be super safe when you are playing sports, so that you won't get rocks or even dust in your eyes. Now you know why we need grass at our school.

The last day of summer!

The last day of Summer!!!

The last day of summer only means one thing to me: school is tomorrow! UH OH......! School.. some people can't wait but I can wait forever. Sitting in a stuffy classroom all day is just not me! On the last day of summer you remember all the fun things you did during the summer, toilet papering cabins at camp, getting into trouble, spending time with your friends, no homework, no parents bugging you (most of the time), and in my case stealing some guy's banana board at the park. For me just the prospect of school after a fun filled summer makes me sad!

Yaakov's "What Our School Needs"

Out of all of the things that our school needs, our school needs grass. Grass is necessary because during almost every recess, at least one kid gets hurt because they trip or fall down and get a scratched knee because the field that we have is gravel. Lots of other kids at the school would agree with me because they have probably had the experience. I even have scares from falling down on the field. Even though we don't have a grass field, we still have a field, and we are lucky to have it. Although, or school still needs a grass field.

The best program Television

Full house is the best T.v show ever!. Full house is the best show because the show feels like it is reality. There are 8 seasons and each episode is different for example: D.J`s Birthday party or the family's dog comet finds his true love. That is why I love the show Full House!

A character from fiction I would like to meet

I would like to meet Phineas from the T.V. show ‘Phineas and Ferb’.

I would like to meet him because he is always building cool machines and doing fun stuff like giving a monkey a shower. I would also like to meet Phineas because he is always annoying his sister and he owns a pet platypus. I think that Phineas is very nice and if I met him he would let me ride in his time machine into the future!

What our School Needs the Most

Our narrow school hallways are always crowded with people, we need to enlarge them. Having these very narrow hallways can be very problematic because they tend to get stuffed easily. There are so many people in this school that we should have hallways that are wide enough for them to pass without much difficulty. We can not decrease the number of students, but we can however increase the width of these old hallways. You can almost suffocate in these hallways when they are crammed with students, enlarging these hallways is an absolute necessity.

The best program on television

The best program on television is the Fireplace Channel. I like it because every half an hour a guy pokes his hand into the fireplace to keep it going. If you don't have a fireplace, it makes you feel like you have one right in front of you. I also like the Fireplace Channel because there are no commercials. The Fireplace Channel is the best program on television because of those reasons.

THE END!

Israel

There are things that I both love and hate about Israel. One of the things I love is sitting under the boiling heat in a nice comfy beach chair and getting a nice sun tan all day long. The thing I hate the most of all is that all the stores are closed on Saturday, so its boring (cause I can't buy chocolate). One of my favourite parts is going to the dead sea because you can float on the water for as long as you want and you won't sink! The down side of the dead sea is that if the salty water gets in your eyes it burns like crazy. Except for those few bad things Israel is pretty awesome!

TOPIC SENTENCE- MY FAVORITE T.V SHOW

By far my favourite show on television is grey’s anatomy. Although I have only seen this television show once, the gory, bloody scenes grab my attention to a great extent. I adore this show because there is so much action going on through out the one hour long episode. Wether it is in the Emergency room, Operating room or in the waiting area of the hospital, you will always be impressed about how interesting grey’s anatomy is.
