Samurai



Samurai

The Samurai people originated in Japan. They lived there life according to the code of Bushido which means “the way of the warrior”. To live this way they had to be loyal, respectful and be self disciplined. The Samurais had a lot of honour. In fact, they had so much honour that if they were defied they would commit seppuku now known as suicide. They would do this by rolling up in paper and getting a fellow Samurai to cut them vertical then horizontal down their stomachs. To make it worse there would be a man behind him to cut off his head after the cutting of the stomach was done.

The Samurais wore clothing that covered their face. They were usually covered head to toe in metal outfits. Some even wore hats with horns. The Samurai fought with many weapons but their well none weapon was the sword. At the age of 5 or 6 on your birthday you would get your first samurai sword (fake of course) to start to train. Rich kids went to a special school to learn how to become a Samurai others were taught by their fathers or grandfathers.

Ninjas



Ninjas
By: Ashley
Ninjas are cool, sneaky and fast people and they can be gone in a blink of an eye. They are so fast that they can drop a smoke boom and be gone before it fades away. They also never sweat. No human can kill a ninja only another ninja can.

Ninjas can crush a golf ball with two fingers. They start to train to be a ninja at the age of 5 or 6. At that time they are taught how to dislocate their bones. This helps them when they are older. Most of the ninjas weapons they dip in poison to kill their enemies. I don`t know if ninjas are superhero’s or villains but they sure are cool to learn about.

Spiders



Spiders


By: Ashley
Most of you have probably heard of the good old spider. I am going to tell you some more cool and new facts about this very interesting species.
Spiders are what you call an invertebrate which means they don’t have a backbone. They are also pollinators like bees. Spiders are not insects which most people think. They are their own kind. Tarantulas shed their furry skin as they grow, leaving behind what looks just like another tarantula.
When you think of a spider you think of a web, right? Well not every spider makes a web out of all 30,000. Most spiders have around six to eight eyes. When spider’s webs have been torn or ripped they will roll the ruined one up into to a ball and eat it. Then they will start their new web. My last few facts are that the male spiders are usually smaller then the females and spiders can be as small as a pin and reach the size of a dinner plate.
