2. Why didn’t Morton check his email? What made him finally read his mail?
Uncle Morton didn’t his email because he don’t want to destructed his holiday time and he want to spent time only play not to thinking about the work or something else. Something that made him finally read email is he heard the rumor said the Lower Bisket that near his island was flood so he worry about his friends then he go on the phone and checked after that when he find out it was the Upper Buskett Island is flood.

3. Why did Morton change hotels?
Uncle Morton changed his hotel because the first hotel that he want to stay is have the chief that he want to eat the food from that chief but then that chief was having a problem with the owner of the hotel so he moved to the hotel than uncle Morton also go follow the chief because uncle Morton want to eat the food that the chief cook.

4. What present does Morton give to each member of the family? Which one would you want? Why?
Uncle Morton give the monkey to Emily, cheese for Eddie mother and French book to Eddie.
I would prefer the French book. I choose that choice because if I have French book it help me to learn more about it and know how to speak French.

5. What is Mom’s idea about Uncle Morton’s instructions list? Do you agree with her? Why or why not?
Mom’s idea about Uncle Morton’s instruction list is that she think that Uncle Morton just put the instruction list under the sofa when he came to take the dragon because when before Uncle Morton came to take the dragon mom never saw that instruction list.
I think I agree with her idea. I agree with her idea because if Uncle Morton put the instruction list under the sofa he would tell mom already or Eddie already but he didn’t tell so i would guess that Uncle Morton just put it when he came and took the dragon.

6. Make a prediction about what happens next.
My prediction about what happens next is that I think Eddie’s mom will tell Uncle Morton to take the dragon back because mom have the instruction list about the dragon so it will be better for her to look after the dragon.

Weekly Journal about Sunrise Performance.

On October 24th I went to the Sun Rise performance at Chaktomuk theater. When I went into the Chaktomuk theater I feel like the ground is smooth and smell like the aromatic perfume of the people use. Then when I went inside the theater to see the performance I saw the people walked around and talked with each other. In there I smell like the BBQ that the people make and I felt hungry. Then I walked on the ground I felt that the ground is soft and cold. Then I sat down on the chair I felt comfortable and easy . Five minutes pass the Sun rise student start to perform it’s so cool and the sound like quiet and everyone at there was focus to the performance. In the performance they talked about 3 empire 1. The Angkor Empire 2. Khmer rouge 3. Phnom Penh now.
When they perform they put a lot of feeling in the perform and show us that how Cambodia is important. When they show us about the Angkor Empire it was so amazing because they show us when the time that Cambodia was developing in that time but when they show us about Khmer rouge they show us how it’s difficult and what it look like. Then 1 hour later they finished the performance so we all cleaning up our space then we go back to Liger.

Smell Poem

By: Srey pich, Sovannou, Rathanak 

The aromatic perfume of fried pork.

And the fresh odour of food on a fork.

Or the stinky smell when I pull out a cork.

The aromatic smell of strawberry.

And the citrusy perfume of candy.

Or the spoiled smell of an old cookie.

The stagnant smell of  rubbish in the city.

And the spicy perfume of chilly.

Or the  earthy smell of a dirty monkey.
