Sam wrote the following summary of his life so far for his school project, which he presented to the class (along with everyone else) and got great feedback. Well done Sam!
All about ME! Hi my name is Sam Jensen. I am nearly 8 years old. I was born in Newcastle, England, on July 15th 2000 at 4.20pm. My favorite color is yellow, a very bright yellow. My favorite food is ham and pineapple pizza, it’s so tasty I can’t describe it. My favorite TV shows are Ben10 and SpongeBob. The very best holiday was when I went to France in a tent with some of my family and friends, with a swimming pool close to us. It rained on the tent at night and I really liked it because the sound made me drift off to sleep. I am scared of the dark but my red alien light makes me think about other things. What I really like about my family is that we have great times and we usually have fun together. My mum and dad are the best chefs in the world. We have a swing in our back yard and I like sitting on it, eating ice cream. My friends names are Drayke, Michael, Matthew, Madison, Carina, Jacob, James, Charlie and a whole other bunch here, and some others in England. I have a sister named Eve, she is a very playful child. We both like doing gymnastics, it is a lot of fun. My mum has a little garden in the back that we get food from. My favorite comic is the Beano, so I have a Beano room - I like it so much! My Beano arrives every 3 weeks on Thursdays. I am having a lot of fun here in America, I miss my friends too though, but the flight here was worth it. It is very different from England, but I really like it.
When I grow up… When I grow up I would like to be a swimming teacher or a karate teacher. I really like fighting (pretend) which is why I like karate. I like swimming because it is fun to do and after my lessons I get to jump of the board and splash around. When I grow up I would like to live in England because they have cool parks as well as great playgrounds. There are also things I would like to learn, like how to water-ski and how to ride a jet-ski. When I grow up I would like to be the kind of person that helps people, people in need.
