My Pet

My dog's name is Mike and he has brown fur. He's’ a puppy and he is two years old and he has small ears and a small tail. Mike also has a black nose. He has sharp teeth and small paws. My puppy is a male and it has sharp claws too. He has soft fur.                                                       

He can roll over, he also can play, fetch and he can jump over the fence too. He can jump on everything in our house even the table. He can also jump into the house by using the window and he likes climbing on trees .

Mike likes it when we go to the park and his  favorite food is chicken bones and dog treats. He  also likes  squeaky toys too. He likes to run around a lot too. He also likes to jump on my bed.

I really love my dog.

How do rainbows occur?

1.Rainbows happen when sunlight and rain combine in a very specific way.

2. The beams of sunlight separate into the colours we see in the rainbow as they enter a raindrop.

3.  Sunlight is actually made up of different colours that we don’t usually see.

4.  When a beam of sunlight comes down to Earth, the light is white.

5.  But, if the light beam happens to hit raindrops on the way down at a certain angle, the different colours that make up the beam separate so that we can see them — in the form of a rainbow.

6. There are seven colours in the rainbow, red, blue, green, orange, yellow, indigo and violet.
