Polar Bear Facts About It

   Do you know that a polar bear's skin is actually black? If you didn't, shouldn't you pay more attention to this? A polar can run up to 40 miles per hour. Polar bears can weigh 400 to 1,000 pounds! They usually go for little seals, but if they are really hungry they will go for older seals or baluga whales. Polar bears will go into the water to catch their pray. A polar bear is built for extreme temperatures. A polar bear's fur is so white that it is like a scoop of sweet vanilla ice-cream. For this reason, a polar bear can blend in it's envirorment, and can attack it's prey faster than you can say "I ran to the top of Mt. Everest and climbed The Petrona Towers." A male will fight for a female, but one can get killed or hurt. If you saw a polar bear, what would you do? Will you tell an adult, or will you touch it? It is your choice, say what you would do, other than the ones I wrote down.

Hurricane Charley

   Hurricane Charley was one of the worst hurricanes of the hurricane season. About 57 people died and 17 were injured. A school was destroyed because of the hurricane, and they won't go to school until it is constructed again. How many people were left without homes? How many people lost power? Have you ever expireneed a hurricane? What did you plan to do?

My Revised Version

   Did you hear about the tropical cyclone in the hurricane season that hit like a storm so big that you would never forget? Well if you didn't, you want to hear this. Hurricane Charley caused at least 57 humans to ascend and left 17 injured. A school was destroyed violently by the hurrricane, and the students can't go to school until it was repaired. The kids had go to a church for school.

Our First Meeting

   On Thursday, other 5th grade students and I were selected to be in a special group of weblogging. That day we learned what we were going to do. We were going to do paragraphs on important events. Then when we are done, we had to paste it on the internet.
   Also, we picked a partner to see which weblog we liked most.  When  we decided on one, he (my partner) told why we chose that topic. Students were going to write a summary of what we did that day. When we were done, we had to go to the internet and go to the program Word. We had to choose a weblog that we liked. Mine was about: One lady and her 7 yr. old son were attacked by their own pitt bulls. The small child was injured, but the mother was killed. In the past other people have been killed by pitts.
  When that was over, we printed. I think that I printed 2x. Mrs. Davis gave us folders. Then we took pictures at the end. That is what we did on Thursday.

My First Post

   I will tell you about what I'm learning aboot and what I already know. I am trying to learn about what I can do to get better grades in math, science, social studies, grammar, reading, and spelling. I want to learn about being one of the best soccer players in the world. Also, I wish to learn about writing a book.

   I already know about The Quiz Bowl. My friend and I participated in it while I was in 4th grade. Marcos went crazy when we answered the question to the competition. We always got 2nd; at first I thought it was going to be fun. At the end, I hated it just as much as I hate cats. I also want to learn about the history about the past like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Lewis and Clark.
