  • A dog’s life
hi I'm Dino the family dog. I help keep people safe especially on the roads.Take a look at my diary to see what I did last week. Some children really don't think. Our neighbour’s boy ran in front of a car to get his ball. The car almost hit him. I saved him though. Remember always look and listen. Walking on the street at night can be very dangerous, especially if you wear dark clothes. Car drivers can't see you very well, just like these two I had to take home. Luckily I never go out without my reflective jacket and collar .Remember, BE SEEN !People can get very angry when driving usually for silly reasons. One driver started shouting at Mum today when she stopped to let some children cross the road. One thing makes me really mad .Grrrrr .people walking on a dangerous road when they can walk on the safe pavement. I saw two girls doing that today but I soon made them change their minds. Seat belts can save your life. I make sure everyone in our car wears their seat belt. If they forget, I soon remind them. Even I've got one. I like Fridays. The roads are quieter. But you still have to be careful. I caught Dad talking on his mobile phone while driving. I soon stopped him though. Don't worry he got his phone back. Today Mum took me for a walk. One car was parked in a very dangerous place. It was right on the corner of the street. Don't worry though I left him a message

x Learning Talk
English was hard for me at work. I wanted to talk better. So, I started learning one new word every day. I asked my co-workers to help me. They were happy to teach me. I listened to English at lunch and asked questions. I made many small mistakes, but I kept trying. I used new words in short sentences. People smiled and said, "Your English is better now!" I felt proud. Talking in English helped me do my job better. I also made more friends. Learning a language takes time, but talking every day helps. Now, I help others learn too. I tell them, "Speak, don't worry about mistakes." Every talk is a chance to learn. I still learn, little by little, every day.
