Emily b grade 3 I am reading Magic tree house book9 Dolphins at Daybreak. Annie and Jack both had the same dream about Morgan. Morgan gave them a scroll and an ocean book. The tree house spun and then Jack and Annie got on an island. Jack and Annie found the mini sub and got on. Then they met some sea animals like dolphins which Annie named Sam and Sukie. Then an Octopus started to hug the mini-sub and left its black ink on the sub. Jack felt water dripping on his arm. Then they saw a hammerhead shark, the hammerhead shark hid in a reef. Jack and Annie had to leave the mini-sub because it was about to sink, there were holes in the sub.
ReplyDeleteThat's where I left off.

ReplyDeletei read a book called dolphins. the book is all about the dolphins life. young dolphins are called calf, its a mammal just like us and it drinks milk from its mothers body. a dolphins family is called a pod. a dolphins school can have more than 1,000 dolphins. a porpoise can be confused as a dolphin but they are not related because they are different in important ways (like a porpoise has a top fin shaped like a triangle and a dolphins top fin is hooked or curved. a porpoise has round teeth and dolphins teeth are pointed. a porpoise has a rounded snout and a dolphins have a pointed snout.) a river dolphin has poor eye sigh, its a slow swimmer and rarely jump, they have a long thin snout. an ocean dolphins has good eye sight, they are fast swimmers and jump often, and a short snout. the most amazing dolphins is called orca also known as killer whales.they win almost every record setting award in the dolphins category. they can swim 7 times faster than an olympic swimmer, it can also live up to 90 years, it can eat anything from sea turtle penguins to seals and sharks, it can also grow almost as long a school bus. did you know that whales and dolphins are very close related? in fact so dolphins we call whales are dolphins.a super spinner dolphins twirls through the air like a spiraling football.and jump almost 10 feet into the air, it can spin up to 7 times. did you know that dolphins spend lots of time hunting for food, they can't wait to have fun (they make up games like surfing /tag /and playing catch).

DeleteCarina J., Grade 2, Addison the April Fool's Day Fairy. It's about two girls named Kirsty and Rachel and they help a fairy named Addison get three magic things back from Jack Frost's goblins.

All of Addison's magical objects end up back in Fairyland and it all works out.

It is about Scooby Doo and the gang's mystery machine stops because the engine broke down. They had to find a phone, but couldn't. They got out and started walking at night. Scooby saw a castle and they rushed toward it. Scooby dug his paws in the dirt because he was afraid to go in, but then he did go. Scooby knocked on the door with is tail and knights in armor let them in. Weird things happened inside the castle and they thought it was haunted, but it just turned out to be just a Halloween party going on in the castle.
