The Dragon Tears



The children in year 2 read the story 'The Dragon Tears'. They have spent time discussing the storyline. It is about a small boy who finds a magic pearl. The pearl multiplies things and makes the boy wealthy. He then swallows the pearl by mistake and he turns into a dragon. At the end he turns back into a small boy. The children decided they didn't like the ending and wrote their own dragon adventures. They have also created their own dragons using 'colour magic' on the computer! Here is a selection of them.


The Broken Pearl

One sun day Chun Li found a pearl next to the river it was pretty. Chun Li had never seen such a beautiful pearl. When he showed his mum she said throw it out it could cause a lot of trouble. Chun Li didn’t want to throw it away. Chung Li we to his bed and sat down. He had an idea. Chun Li put the pearl in his mouth before his mum came. She said have you thrown the pearl away. Chun Li said yes. Chun Li started changing. He had wings. He flew through the window and flew over the pretty mountains. There was big bears they were happy playing together. Chun Li was too cold. Then he flew over the mountains again and to a land. It was so amazing. Chun Li breathed fire out of his big mouth the people saw Chun Li. They were scared because he had big teeth and big green scales. They got big buckets of cold water and threw it on him. Chun Li started to choke. The magic pearl fell out of his mouth and he turned back into a boy again.

Then he went to Egypt and he explored the temples. Then he went under a tree to rest. Then he flew back home.

The Dragon Tears

One cold day a little boy called Chun Li started to change his eyes got bigger. His ears got huger and Chun Li started to change into a dragon, a big dragon that had a huge spot on his back. He decided to go to different countries so he did. First he went to Iceland and a big bad bear that was very fierce and scary said ROAR very loudly. It was dripping wet in Iceland. The clouds turned black and down came crashing thunder. Next he went to space. He saw lots of Aliens on his way to the moon. It was bright yellow and the planets were like bright yummy fruits. But he fell on the moon. He saw a man called Bob and a lady called Sarah. Chun Li the dragon asked them can you play with me. Sarah and Bob said no you are a dragon why would we play with you. The dragon felt very sad so he decided to go back home. By the time he got back home he turned back into a boy again!

End of China week

China week!
In school this week, we have been celebrating 'China week' to mark the start of the Chinese new year. All our lessons have been based around this theme and it has been very interesting to learn about Chinese culture. Year 2 have been keeping a diary about all the activities they have been involved in. These will be placed on the blog next week by the pupils, so make sure you read them when they do!

Some of the activities included:
  • Learning about the Zodiac story and then performing it in groups
  • Making new year cards and lucky money envelopes
  • Learning how to count in Chinese
  • Making paper fish to bring us good wealth.
Here are some pictures of the pupils during China week.
The pupils are making lucky Chinese envelopes and cards.


These are the lucky fish the pupils made. They worked very hard to make these and they look wonderful. You can see them in the window of our classroom.




Here, the pupils are creating their own synchronised Chinese dance.




Make sure you read our next blog to see the video of our Zodiac story performance!
