A article about putting on a concert!

It’s time for a concert!

Are you bored? Do you like music? Why not put on a concert? It’s very easy and so fun!

First of all, you should decide where the concert will take place. Somebody’s back garden or even the playground of your school will be fine. After that, you have to choose the type of the songs and the playlist. If you want to put on a concert, you need to arrange some other things, too. A concert needs lighting and a good sound system. Someone must take care of that. When you have decided on all these things, you have to choose the time of your concert.

If you want your concert to succeed, you have to rehearse often. Don’t forget that. Practice makes perfect! You can also get matching trendy costumes.

When you’re ready, invite people- put up posters or hand leaflets- to come and watch your concert. Have fun!

Putting on a concert!

Have you got too much free time and you don't know how to spend your weekend? Why don't you put on a concert? It's really fun!

First of all, you have to think about the place and the time you want to perform. It will be a good idea to arrange it in someone's back garden. Also, I think that you should do it on a Sunday evening when all the guests will definitely be there. After that, you have to decide the playlist. Are you going to play pop, rock, hip-hop or classical music? Then, you should organise the sound system and the lighting because it'll be dark and no one will see you! So, you could ask a friend to lend you some microphones and speakers.

Moreover, you have to choose what clothes to wear. In my opinion they should be colourful and fashionable. Arrange a time too rehearse. Remember. Only one rehearsal is not enough. You have to keep on practising.

Finally, invite all your friends and relatives and advertise your concert. Put up posters or hang out leaflets. Well, I hope your concert will really catch on!

A summer story

A summer story

Two years ago, I organised a beach party at my father's hotel.

First of all, I bought all the decorations I needed and put them up everywhere. After that, I made lots of invitations with many colours and stickers and sent them to my friends. Then, went shopping with my mother to buy snacks and drinks. I also ordered a big chocolate cake and I bought some CDs.

On that day everybody came wearing their swimsuits. The sun was shining and we all got th the sea. We swam a lot, played differsnt games in the sand and looked for shells. Moreover, we danced, sang, sunbathed and had some food.

All of a sudden, it started raining. Although the rain marred the party, it was an unforgettable day and all my friends had fun!

A SUMMER STORY

Last summer, a girl named Nina was on holidays with her family and their dog, Nelly, on an island.

One day, they decided to go to the beach. When they arrived there, the beach was empty. They didn’t mind. They were all having fun-Dad was swimming, Mum was sunbathing and Nina and Nelly were playing on the beach. Suddenly, something terrible happened. A huge wave covered the beach and the family split up. Everyone was fine, but they couldn’t find each other. Nina was very frightened, but she wasn’t alone. Nelly was with her. They didn’t know what to do.

Nina sat on a rock and started crying. It would be dark soon. Suddenly, Nelly discovered something. It was a mermaid! She was scared. She said that the wave took her away from her home. She lived under a huge rock that was shaped like a heart. Nina remembered that she had seen this rock when she was walking with Nelly. They took the mermaid to the rock. She was very happy, but Nina was very sad. The mermaid asked her why she was sad and Nina told her about her parents. The mermaid said that she could grant one wish to each one of them to thank them. Nina wished she had her parents back and Nelly started barking.

Two seconds later, the family was together again and they were so happy… But wait a minute, where was Nelly? She was next to them under a huge pile of bones!!!
