The moom dossint (doesn’t) shine on its own, it shines with the sun.

The moon has craters, which are holles (holes) made by astroyds (asteroid) that hit fly the moon.

The moon isen’t (isn’t) a plant, it is a natural satellite of Earth.

You can’t live on the moon because there is no oxegen (oxygen).

24/08/10 How to grow a carot (carrot).

I have a carot seed, I put my carrot seed in a hole of soil.

I water my seed every day. First tinny tinny leaves come out, then the leaves come out, then the leaves grow bigger and bigger.

The carrot grows under the earth.

The carrot is ready. Just wash the carrot and eat it.

I saw a nyala just next to our house. The nyala was waching (watching) me whith (with) his big black eyes. I went a little closer to the nyala.

I put my hand out infront (in front) of me and the nyala sniffed me. The nyala started to lick me. I steped (stepped) back because I was scared of his horns.
