Helena from 4b is ceasing the time in quarantine, “I am still trying to educate myself at home as much as possible. I read a science fiction story called “The Island of Doctor Moreau.” Then Helena came up with two writing tasks herself. She had the idea to write a letter to a friend, desperately asking for help, and a sequel to the story.

Dear Cate,

Not long ago, I told you about how I wanted to discover a mysterious island.

Currently, I am on that island, and you won't believe what I have experienced until now. I've been here for a few days. By using a plane to get to Colombia, and from there taking a ferry, I arrived at the island of Doctor Moreau. Then, I met Doctor Moreau. At the first glance he seemed very friendly and nice. But to be honest, the first time I saw his body, he looked a bit strange. His body is half a human's body and half an animal's body.

Later, I got to know the truth, why he looks like that and who he really is. He is a scientist who does experiments on people and animals. Those experiments are illegal and dangerous, that's the reason why he does them on the island.

Yesterday he locked me in one of his cages and wanted to do an experiment on me, because I am the only human being on that island now. Luckily, I escaped and now I am in danger. He is looking for me and if he finds me,I'll probably become one of his pets.

So, I am begging you for help to rescue me. Notify the police about this problem and come as soon as possible!

Your friend,

Helena

“Ten years after”

Ten years ago I escaped from Doctor Moreau`s island, my friend Cate and the police rescued me. Doctor Moreau was arrested because of his illegal job. Because of my curiosity, I went back to the island to see if something had changed.
 When I arrived there, I was fascinated but at the same time a little bit confused. It was like a fairy tale. The treetop was so fluffy that it seemed like it was a cloud, and the colors were all possible shades of green. On one tree there were all kinds of fruits growing. There was one huge flower, it had the shape of an armchair. I sat on it and it was very comfortable.
 Despite all of those wonderful plants, there were also a lot of animals and some strange creatures. While walking I saw a white unicorn with large wings. At first, I didn’t notice it, but then I figured that something was flying around me. These were small fairies. I couldn’t believe my eyes. They were so small and shiny. Their hair color was golden and they had braids. 
 This place amazed me. When I came home, it felt like it was a dream.

9th March

On Monday morning I woke up at 9:43. I was very sad. Because I got sick. My tummy hurt really badly and I got a high fever. I was crying non-stop. And the more often I cried the more my neck hurt. All I could do is lie in bed.

So I was down in bed, only watching my favorite series, reading a book and sleeping. Because I got fever my Mum made some vinegar socks .It was so cold. And disgusting. And I couldn't eat anything, so we went to the doctor and he said that I had a cold. In the evening we had some beef with fries my favourite food. But of course I couldn't eat a lot . So my Mum made me chicken soup. After that I took a hot shower and went to bed.

10th March

My Mum made me a really delicious breakfast. But of course, I couldn't eat anything. We went to the chemist´s to get some medicine. I got some extra sweets for my neck and some syrup. The sweets were yummy but the syrup was kind of funny. That afternoon I felt awfully dizzy. Suddenly I had to throw up. I was so tired, so I took a nap for five hours. In the evening my parents surprised me with my aunt. She came to visit me from Serbia, because she got no work to do, because of the corona virus. Later I took a shower, and was playing some board games with he . At 9pm I was so tired that I fell asleep.

11th March

On Wednesday I woke up very late. I woke up at noon . That day was a lazy day. So I stayed in my pyjamas, all day . I did my homework. And while I was doing my homework I remembered what a beautiful time my classmates had on their skies. After my homework I painted something for my best friends . And then of course I watched Netflix with my aunt, and ate  popcorn, my favorite snack. But then I had to take my medicine . But only the disgusting syrup was left, because I had eaten all of the sweets . I think that me and my aunt watched three movies after each other. So we  fell asleep together.

12th March

I woke up very early at 8 o'clock. First I saw my little puppy named Teddy. The virus I had could not infect him. So he was my only friend these days. Later we went to our doctor.  We were waiting for two hours .He said that my neck was a bit better and I could eat my favorite food again. But I still had the virus. He gave my Mum the prescription. So we went to the chemist's again for the medicine. Then we went back home and I had to take my pills, and some nose drops, too. I didn't do anything special in the evening . So I only took it easy and relaxed.

13th March

I was so happy because my grandpa was coming home from hospital. In the afternoon we went to visit him. Of course with used a mask. We stayed there for a short time. Then we went home and me and my mum and my dad backed some pancakes. The pancakes were delicious, then we were playing board games and played with my dog. Later that evening my grandma came to visit me . And she brought some cookies. After I ate the cookies my grandma went back home . And I took a nice long shower. Then I took my medicine and went to sleep at nine thirty.

March 9th:

I woke up at 6 am and was very excited, because it was the beginning of a special week. The day before I had packed my suitcase for our ski week. In the morning I put the last things in it. My mum and left our house at 7:15 am because we needed to find a parking spot.
 At 8am our bus arrived. I sat next to Adrijana. It was really funny. The bus ride to Lackenhof took us three hours. We arrived at 11am. I was with Nadine and Nikolina in a beautiful little room. Lunch started at 12am. We ate spaghetti. After the break the beginners went to the “ Kinderland “. Before the skiing course I had thought skiing is difficult, but it isn’t. In the evening we danced with Ms Kulhanek and at 9:30pm we went to bed.

March 10th:

Mrs Osunbor woke us up at 7:30am, then we had breakfast. After breakfast a bus picked the beginners up and we went to the “Kinderland“ again. The sun was shining on Tuesday and the weather was beautiful.
 After lunch we went skiing again but this time we had to take the regular bus. In the evening we watched the beginning of the film “ Sing “. We went to bed at the same time like the day before.

March 11th:

Wednesday was a special day, because the beginner should also ski on a real slope. I was so excited because I should be skiing with the best group. I really enjoyed it, because we were so fast.
 Lunch that day was very good. It rained a bit in the afternoon. In the evening we watched the film to the end. Then we went to bed at 9pm because many children were so tired and exhausted.

March 12th:

On Thursday it was very warm outside. It had 16°C in Lackenhof, because of that we could only go skiing in the morning. That day we had a real skiing teacher. After lunch we went for a walk. Nearby we found a little pizzeria. We went inside. We could even order something to eat. I shared a pizza with Nadine. It wasn’t very expensive.
 When we came back to the youth hostel we started packing our suitcase again. In the evening we had a talent competition and at last we made a funny picture altogether.

March 13th:We had breakfast and then our bus came to pick us up. This time I sat next to Nikolina. I was sad because the week was wonderful, but I also was also happy to see my parents again. 

Vor ein paar Tagen haben meine Mama und ich eine Facebook-Gruppe namens „ Stoaroas“ entdeckt. Dieser Gruppe kann man jederzeit beitreten. 

Es geht darum einen Stein zu bemalen und dann ein Foto von dem fertigen Stein in die Gruppe zu stellen. Der bemalte Stein wird anschließend an einem frei zugänglichen Ort deiner Wahl abgelegt. Der Finder des Steines stellt ebenfalls ein Foto von ihm in diese Gruppe und legt den Stein an einem neuen Ort ab. So hat man in dieser verrückten Zeit eine nette, fast kostenfreie Beschäftigung. Derjenige der den Stein findet, freut sich natürlich darüber, und derjenige der den Stein bemalt hat, freut sich, dass sein Stein gefunden wurde. Es gibt unzählige Möglichkeiten seine Steine zu bemalen, deiner Fantasie sind keine Grenzen gesetzt. 

Es ist so einfach sich gegenseitig eine kleine Freude zu bereiten J 

Vielleicht schaffen wir es zusammen, dass der ein oder andere Stein um die Welt reist.       

The students of 4b worked on a reader called “Selma”. Selma is a town in Alabama, where the famous marches for civil rights in the USA took place.  After reading the book, Simone has written an informative summary of the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King.

Dr Martin Luther King

Martin Luther King was an activist, marcher and leader of the civil rights movement in the United States of America.

Unfortunately, black people in the southern states were still not allowed to vote in the Sixties because of their skin colour, and many people living there were racists.

Dr. King fought against this and demonstrated peacefully with others until he succeeded. His marches were non-violent and his biggest dream was that one day black and white children would be playing together in the park. He had four children himself and a wife named Coretta King.

At the age of 39, on April 4th, 1968, a white racist shot Martin Luther King dead.

In my opinion he was one of the most inspiring people in the world!

Tag 1. Wir mussten um 6 Uhr 30 bei der schule sein, weil je früher wir wegfahren desto früher sind wir da. Aber der Bus hatte eine Verspätung deswegen sind wir später weggekommen. Der  Bus ist zu spät gekommen weil er irgendetwas mit dem Ski Anhänger defekt war. Aber dann sind wir endlich weggefahren. Als wir im Bus waren bin ich neben Philipp gesessen. Weil mir langweilig war habe ich an meinem Buch geschrieben das Buch heißt Ercan Kara der Neuzugang Rapid’s. Dann, als ich nicht mehr schreiben wollte habe ich mit Philipp ungefähr eine Stunde  UNO gespielt. 
Nachdem wir ankamen, haben wir die Zimmer bezogen. Nach dem Mittagessen konnten wir um ersten Mal unsere Schisachen anziehen. Eine Stunde rutschen wir alle schon am Schnee herum.
Nach dem Abendessen haben wir eine Nachtwanderung gemacht.
Tag 2
Nach dem Frühstück zogen wir uns wieder Anorak und Schihose an und fuhren 3 Stunden ski. Es gab drei Gruppen – ich selbst war in der mittleren. Mittagessen konnten wir wieder in unserer Herberge – am Nachmittag fuhren wir wieder 3 Stunde Schi. Es macht sehr viel Spaß und wir lernten wir noch besser am Schi stehen sollten. Gleich nach dem Schifahren sind die Jungs aus der 2b – also wir –  mussten wir ein paar Yoga Übungen machen. 
Nach dem Abendessen haben wir eine sehr coole Fackelwanderung gemacht und am Schluss gabs ein schönes Lagerfeuer aber leider ohne Würstel und anderes Grillzeug 😊. Müde fielen wir in die Betten.
Tag 3: Heute wachten wir in Zimmer schon um 6:30 Uhr auf – so gespannt erwarteten wir schon den Tag. Wecken gabs eigentlich erst um 7:00 Uhr.  Auf der Piste war es wie am Tag 2. 
Nach dem Abendessen gab es eine Modenschau. Dazu mussten wir aus Zeitungspapier Kleidung anfertigen. Es war echt lustig. Vor allem die Mädels machten echt tolle Kleider. Die Gruppe von KJOJO hatte dann auch gewonnen, Die Jury gab ganz ehrliche Punkte. 
Herr Schneider fand alles WUNDERBAR und gab immer 10 Punkte…. Herr Braun sagte am Schluss immer wieder ABER…..
Nach der Modenshow gingen wir schlafen.

Tag 4: 
Die Sonne wachte mit uns auf. Schifahren waren wir wie an allen anderen Tagen auch Aber ich sollte dann in der Anfängeruppe doch noch mehr üben. Nach dem Abendessen haben im Turnsaal 8 Sportübungen gemacht. Danach haben wir uns die Bilder der Woche angeschaut.  Um 22:30 war Nachtruhe. 

Tag 5: 
Wir sind wieder ½ 7 aufgestanden und haben unsere Koffer gepackt. Ohne Probleme ging das ab. Niemand hat etwas vermisst und die Koffer gingen auch leicht zu – meiner nicht ganz so leicht.
Dann haben wir das Schimaterial zum Bus getragen und die Koffer in den Bus gegeben. 
Auf der Heimreise saß ich neben Anna F. Bei der Mittagsrast haben wir uns Süßigkeiten gekauft. Als wir bei er Schule ankamen, freuten wir uns schon sehr auf unsere Eltern.

Als ich nach Hause kam, hat mein Papa mir erzählt, dass meine Oma verstorben ist. Trotzdem war der Schikurs ein besonders schönes Erlebnis.

Am Schikurs lernt man viel – klar, die Bewegung am Schnee steht im Vordergrund – aber dann gibt es noch diese Abendgestaltungen – und diesmal Stand wieder ein Highlight auf dem Programm:
Wir freuten uns schon riesig auf die mega coole -Modenschau. In diesem Rahmen  stellten Lisa Mia, Johanna und Nishelie ein besonderes Modell vor.

Unser Thema: „Chill out“ ist vor allem bei den SchülerInnen beliebt, da diese oft sehr faul sind.
Dieses Outfit beweist, dass man chic und faul gleichzeitig sein kann.
Das Zeitungs-Bären-Kleid ist nur eines von vielen aus unserer Kollektion in LA.
Es besteht hauptsächlich aus Zeitung. Daran befestigt sind:
• Eine abnehmbare Kapuze mit süßen Bärenohren
• Ein langer und ein kurzer Ärmel,
• eine  lange Schleppe 
• und nur ein Schuh, weil man zu faul ist, den zweiten anzuziehen.
