PRIMARY-5.- THIS IS ME! A LITTLE BIT ABOUT PRIMARY 5'S KIDS :-)

HELLO EVERYONE!

PRIMARY 5 KIDS WANT YOU TO KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THEM. THAT IS WHY THEY WROTE A SHORT TEXT TO INTRODUCE THEMSELVES.

HERE YOU CAN SEE THE RESULTS IN THIS BOOK:

READING SKILLS PRACTICE :-)

WHY READING IS SO IMPORTANT:

1-  Reading is important because it develops the mind. The mind is a muscle. It needs exercise. Understanding the written word is one way the mind grows in its ability. Teaching young children to read helps them develop their language skills. It also helps them learn to listen. Everybody wants to talk, but few can really listen. Lack of listening skills can result in major misunderstandings which can lead to job loss, marriage breakup, and other disasters - small and great. Reading helps children [and adults] focus on what someone else is communicating.

2-  Why is reading important? It is how we discover new things. Books, magazines and even the Internet are great learning tools which require the ability to read and understand what is read. A person who knows how to read can educate themselves in any area of life they are interested in. We live in an age where we overflow with information, but reading is the main way to take advantage of it.

3- Reading develops the imagination. TV and computer games have their place, but they are more like amusement. Amusement comes from two words "a" [non] and "muse" [think]. Amusement is non-thinking activities. With reading, a person can go anywhere in the world...or even out of it! They can be a king, or an adventurer, or a princess, or... The possibilities are endless. Non-readers never experience these joys to the same extent.

4- Finally, why is reading important?  Reading is important because words - spoken and written - are the building blocks of life. You are, right now, the result of words that you have heard or read AND believed about yourself. What you become in the future will depend on the words you believe about yourself now. People, families, relationships, and even nations are built from words. Think about it.

THAT IS WHY I SUGGEST YOU TO CLICK ON THIS PICTURE BELOW. HERE YOU CAN FIND A LOT OF EASY OR... DIFFICULT TEXTS TO READ AND PRACTICE: VOCABULARY, STRUCTURES, READING COMPREHENSION AND THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THEM ALL: ENJOYING READING!

THESE ARE HIGHER LEVELS: 2 - 3

OF COURSE, HERE YOU ARE... THE LYRICS!!!!!

Water Cycle Song Lyrics: 

The Water Cycle
Takes the water and moves it
Up and Down and all around the Earth

Evaporation comes
When the heat from the Sun
Warms up all the groundwater
Then it turns to water vapor

Condensation takes over
It goes up to the clouds
Water vapor cools down
And it changes to a liquid, now

Precipitation happens
When the drops get big
It falls like Rain, Snow, Sleet, and Hail upon my head
I know it's the water cycle happening again
Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation

ENJOY, AND THANKS TO Have Fun Teaching FOR THIS VIDEO :-)
