			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A big &#8220;Thank You&#8221; to the Wigan Education Business Partnership Team who came into Year 4 this week to play The Paper Bag Trading Game.</p>
<p>This team activity set the pupils the challenge of making and producing bags made from newspaper within a set time period. We were shown how to make bags similar to those made by children in India. Then we worked in teams to produce the paper bags and were paid 1 rupee for every 10 bags that we made. We then calculated how much money we would have &#8220;earned&#8221; if we had made the bags all day &#8211; and whether or not we would have made enough money to survive in India. Afterwards we were shown some artifacts from a village in Africa.</p>
<p>A very stimilating and thought-provoking activity. You participated brilliantly team. Well done.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>One hot sunny day there was a little girl with blonde, long beautiful hair. She was small and she loved camping .Her eyes were as blue as the ocean. Through the gloomy, misty forest and over the tall mountain there was a smelly bog that was greener than the rottenest grass .Down, down deep in the bog there was a huge dragon. It had fish like scales with the shiniest body that was brighter than the brightest star. He could breathe the most magnificent fire that could burn the entire forest with one puff .His wings were redder than a volcano’s fire and he loved to eat people.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The next morning Tina was so board. Then she had a fantastic idea. Tina went camping. She so excited. As she was walking the wood got mistier and mistier. Tina got scared so she ran and ran until she realized it was getting steeper .Suddenly she tripped over and fell in a bog. Then something grabbed her leg and pulled her in “AHHHHHH!” she screamed “AHHHHH! Why are you screaming? Oh yes, I am a dragon&#8221; called Drongo. So then he invited her in for mud tea and worm cookies. He told Tina that he knew that Tina would come and find his precious egg.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>After they looked everywhere, then Drongo had a great idea “follow me to the mountain&#8221;. Suddenly it exploded. Drongo and Tina flew away.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Then the egg landed in Tina’s hands and Drongo had his egg again and he promised to never lose it again.         </p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Georgia</span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">’s magical egg </span></p>
<p>One bright sunny morning a girl called Georgia woke up. She had beautiful blonde hair and had eyes which were as blue as the sky. Georgia lived in a very, very, very old caravan. It had a broken door, two bedrooms, one kitchen one bathroom and a living room. Her hobbies were reading she only liked reading. But she hated football.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One night Georgia was very tired. She was always tired because she was lazy. Suddenly Georgia thought she saw something in her bedrooms dolls house so she walked over to the dolls house and opened it. Georgia was so shocked she fainted “what was that?” was the last thing she said. But the last thing she saw was a green and blue egg which was broken with orange inside.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One hour later Georgia woke up and felt something bounce on her belly it was a dragon “what! Who are you?” she squead “I am Draigo” the dragon said “I was born here and there’s going to be an earthquake”. Suddenly a big roar cried and the earth began to shake “AHHHHHHHHHHHH” they both screamed “THE EGG” screamed Georgia. As the egg rolled away.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Two minutes later the earthquake was over but they couldn’t find the egg “weres the egg” said Draigo. So they crawled and walked around the house. “I FOUND THE EGG” screamed Draigo followed by a flamey carpet and a puff of smoke.</p>
<p>Georgia went into the living room and saw her carpet on fire, Draigo smiling and a broken egg “put that fire out” said Georgia gently. Suddenly it went out. Georgia looked up as pink dust fell on her then she was a dragon and they lived on Dragon Island forever.</p>
