One night when I was walking down on this road by my own. YEAH year. As I was walking there then I saw a club house and I hear a noise loud over there. Who was there playing guitar what music is it

Then I stopped walking and I looked left and right and across the road. Then I moved closer to the door and open it when I open it there was a bright light shine closer to me. Then as the light geese off then I looked therrrrrrrre. I moved close to there and I was still keeping move keeping move there. Once I was front other then I looked at who was that woo so its Jonas brother then I amazing the music

I loves this music. Once I looked at then then I closed my eyes and I was wishing think that I could play guitar. Barry Dodo oh oh oh baras barras. Then I stopped think and I opened eyes then one of Jonas brother spread this hand to me then I went there and I looked down at everybody and I smile and I JUMPED UP YES!

Mica - Memories
Thomas Tallis is royal blue
Healthy and alive
Outside is huge area
Must have rules
Art challenge try try try!
Settle counselling work calm

Teachers are boring, except Ms Weeks
Always learn something
Life, be healthy, life get on, life, a circle
Learn life, life……
Is learning
Speech Therapy help me with language

Thomas Tallis is the world.

Sean Timon - BSL is my Style
Make my own style
My own language
BSL is my style
All my style is best!
BSL … best style!

All the BSL words are comfortable
When I see something I know I get it!
BSL is my style

People like BSL nouns and verbs
Using different BSL signs with the same words
BSL is my style

I know slang words from English
I know the English slang for rude,
Offensive and insulting … p o x y!
Always fingerspell to others
BSL is my style

I am knowledgeable about sign language
I know the BSL slang for bluffing … f e t c h!
Always using sign language to others
BSL is my style

I am very interested in sign language
With slang English / BSL words
BSL is my style

All hearing people are very interested in
Joining the sign language club
BSL is still my style forever

You know BSL style is best!!

Tiffany Hudson - How to communicate with Deaf students
Deaf is sometimes hard
with using sign language
& communication is confused if they were using sign so fast.
Sometime I am so confused
with sign language
BSL & SSE.
Deaf is great & fun.
Some deaf students who can't sign is trying to catch up
what they were saying
& watch Deaf student.
Lipsreading sometime it hard for Deaf students
when some Deaf students want to learn
how to get involved with sign language
with Deaf people
Now I am happy to learn sign language with Level 2
to communicate with Deaf student.

Laura Blankley - Things that make me who I am
I am deaf but that's not all.
I love listening to music
And being with friends.

I feel sometimes that people stare,
But that's not all me,
I have so much more.

In the spring
I love to see each flower grow.

In the summer
I like to sunbathe
And watch the clouds go by overhead.

In the autumn
I love the way the leaves sound under my feet.

In the winter
I love the way big snowflakes fall down
And make the ground all white and sugary.

So if people don't like what they see
They should just get on with it
Because I am me.

Victoria Roberts - Why am I Deaf?
Deaf. Why am I deaf?
I am like you, nought different about me!
Why do you think I'm stupid?
I am not.
I am just the same as you!

I really don't like you when you are like this.
I feel upset and miserable.
Can't you be happy for people who are deaf?

It's cool being deaf.
I feel lucky.
Sometimes it's good being deaf,
But on the other hand it's not.
People treat you differently.

Sometimes I feel confused and different like I'm in my own little world.
Sometimes hearing people are nice and kind,
But others are ungrateful
And treat you as if you're not an ordinary person.
I feel safe around my family and friends.

I am deaf.
I have got to accept who I am.
I want to be treated the same,
Include me in the world.

Ruky Janere - The Eye is Strong
I look up to the star and moon
And I say to God
How do I make a wish?
I scream out to God I want to hear
Let me see the wish
I hope God make my wish
And a little fairy fly
Very beautiful
Said don’t cry

I love dancing so much
And the fairy said sleep
When I was sleeping
I was dreaming I was dancing
With a nice boy

One day midnight
A whole happiness
Walking by the tree
We went outside the park
And everywhere was dark
And see …
See stars
Stars crash! Wow!

How long me and he
Will never see again
Me like you
Bye

And all my life I don’t know what to do
I want to change
To be a rock star
Not too much to change

The sky and the world is changing
In my life I see a lot of kid
Growing up
How could I grow?
But I want to grow!
I can’t just grow
I’m trying
But my strength, my brain, my eyes …

I also love the world
I sleep and I smile
I love the world
In life every day I see the world will change
How will I see the wish?

Let everyone love together

Finish
