Poem

Grandparents

Granny is really fun when she picks me up after school.
Really cool when she takes me to the park.
Always thinks about others.
Never gets grumpy at people.
News is her favorite thing to watch.   
Yummy food is what she cooks.

descriptive writing


Rip! Goes the wrapping paper.My heart is pounding of excitement. I can smell the salty bacon in the kitchen. I can see lots of scrunched up wrapping paper and presents on the floor. I can hear the loud Christmas crackers. In my head, I was wondering what it would be.

How wolves changed the river

How wolves changed the river

In 1995 wolves came back to Yellowstone national park. When wolves came back the animals behaved differently.

When the wolves started killing some the deer got scared and stopped going to places the wolves can trap them.
When the deer were gone most of the park regenerated.

Birds started moving in because there was more trees than beverages started moving in because they liked to eat the trees. Also this caused ducks , otters and muskrats to come because the beavers built dams.

The wolves killed coyotes so more mice and rabbits came because of this hawks , weasels , foxes and badgers came. Eagles and ravens came down to feed on the bodies the wolves left

The wolves also left food for the bears . The bears fed on it to then more bears came and fed on the berries. In the regenerating forest the plant roots stabilise the banks so that they collapsed less often so the river came more fixed in their course .

Life in yellowstone national park was greatly changed and lots of animals returned because the wolves.

Muhammad All

Muhammad All’s birth name was Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr. He was born in Louisville Kentucky on January 17th 1942. Image result for muhammad ali pngHis father, Cassius Clay Sr worked as a sign painter and his mother Odessa  worked as a maid. Young Cassius had a younger brother named Rudy. The Clays weren't rich, but they weren't poor either. During the time Cassius grew up, southern states like Kentucky were segregated by race. This meant that there were different facilities such as schools, restaurants, swimming pools, and restrooms for black people and white people. Laws called Jim Crow Laws enforced this separation and made life difficult on African Americans like Cassius. Becoming a Boxer When Cassius was twelve years old, someone stole his bike. He was very angry. He told a police officer that he was going to beat up the person who stole it. It turned out that the officer, Joe Martin, was a boxing coach.

The Olympics In 1960, Cassius travelled to Rome, Italy to participate in the Olympics. He defeated all his opponents to win the Gold Medal. Upon returning home, Cassius was an American hero. He decided to turn to professional boxing.

My animal story

I am strongly against animals being in captivity because they are going crazy,starving to death and being taken from the wild .

One reason the I think animals should not be in captivity is that animals are dying of starvation because their owners are not feeding the animals .

My second reason is that animals might try commit suicide and over the past few years lots of animals  have gone crazy or tried to commit suicide because they can't do natural things

60s Fashion Challenge

Yesterday we did a 60s fashion challenge and we all had groups of 4 or 5 .
After we got into our groups  we made our plan by looking at pictures on the internet and then we did a drawing on a big piece of paper . We made a jacket because it looked popular  on the internet . We had to use lots of tape because it kept falling apart . One thing that went well was that we got his sleeves to stay on tight without ripping the paper.Next time I would try not to use so much tape on his jacket and then we would of been able to make pants for him .
