Bowhead whales are interesting. There's a lot of people that just can't seem to understand about them. Like we don't know all of their diseases or the way they talk. Did yoy know that the bowhead whales biggest part of it's body is its head? It also has a curved jaw. Its eyes aren't on the top sides of its head either, they're near its jaw.

King of the Jungle

A lion is a big powerful cat. It is known to be the most famous member of the cat family. People are scared of its roar and impressed by its strength and royal appearance. The lion is called "King of the beasts" and is well-known symbol for beauty and power. Lions live in cool climates and in the intense heat of semi-desert areas. They don't like to live in thick forests. Most of them live in woodlands, grassy plains, and areas with thorny scrub trees. Lions live where they find a supply of food-deer, antelope, zebra, and other hoofed animals-and where they have a place to drink. I wonder why they're only hoofed animals?

Today the reporters came to our class. They're interviewing every kid in the class. There is also a photographer taking pictures. I'm really scared. Uh Oh! He's coming to talk to me. Well...I guess I have to go and talk to this reporter. See you next time in my story, in BIG FAT LIAR.

The act of kindness I did was for my mom. One day, about 7 years ago when my brother was born, my mom left for work at the House Of Kustom. She asked Angela to clean the house while she was gone, instead of me, even though I liked to clean too. She wasn't expecting me to clean since I was only 4, going on 5. I wanted to go to the furniture store with her, but I was too little to be around the expensive stuff. I had to wait 'til I was 5.

So...while my mom was telling Angela how much she would get, they didn't realize that I was eaves-dropping on the whole conversation. She told Angela that she would get 10 dollars if she cleaned the whole house. So, soon as she left, I asked Angela if I could help her and surprise mom by cleaning everywhere upstairs by the time she got back.

Narrator: Once, long, long ago (in America). There was a mama fox who had just had her pups. They were all in their den falling asleep. They woke up and saw a kid running along past their den.

Mama: Kids! Oh darn. Come on kids wake up.

Pups: What do you want ma.

Mama: Human is awake. It's time to go hunting. We're going to have to escape through the back door.

Max: Geese. Why do man have to wake up so early?

Mama: So they can go hunting just like us.

Rover: Stupid man.

Mama: What was that?

Rover: Nothing mama.

Narrator: So, Mama, Max, Rover and Michel all went off to go hunting.

Once,long,long ago there was a person who had saw a alien or what they would like to be called, the "UFO". Sometimes, my mom teases me about me being from the aliens. The aliens don't like it. I've been there before, on the space craft.

At first they did weird experiments on me. Wait! I never told you his name. It's Will. Now, anyway, back to the story. But they couldn't handle me because I was so wiggly. They were very solemn. They didn't even say ߆øπ µø√ˆ˜©¡ which is STOP MOVING! They just stared at me like I was crazy.

After a while, they took a break and left me strapped up on their science table. But I was starving so I got skinny and slipped right out, dude, they even had it on xxxxxxxxxxs for meaning super small.

Did you know that there are scientists that work for research labs and they "test" things on helpless animals? They use horrible methods to see if certain chemicals re-act on poor bunnies, dogs, cats, and all the other animals in the world. Sometimes people wander around nice neighborhoods looking to catch loose dogs or cats to turn into the re-saerch labs for money!

My mom has a book that tells about A dog that escaped from a research lab and is skinny as a toothpick. They don't know how she got away but they do know she had recently had puppies and was very sad and looking for them. Unfortunatley, her puppies were at the lab and they are being tested on. Me and my mom both agree that it should be illegal for people to test on animals. It is cruel and unnecessary since the scientists have other ways to do the tests without making scared animals suffer. If they believe in their experiment so much they should test it on their own self first!

Bad Squirel

Once,long before time,there were two little squirels named Max and Christene. They were brother and sister. Christene was a good squirel, she was always doing her chores. Max on the other hand, was a very naughty squirrel. He was a very lucky squirel, his sister was always taking the blame for all the things that Max did.

So,one day Max's mom and dad asked if he wanted to go. Max was a very solitary squirel so he decided to stay. But, Christene had chose to tag along. So Max was alone in his tree.

Max liked to throw acorns even though his mom said not to. He saw some acorns plucked some acorns and threw them at a tree. They went into a woodpecker hole. He had woken up a woodpecker. She was not happy. She went straight to him and started pecking him for about a minute.

Yesterday I went to my friend's house.I have never been in there. It was awesome! I pictured it way differently. We played Sorry and I won. We played Operation and I won. Then we played Hide and seek, guess what, I won. After a while me, Shelby, Nicole, Daniel and Alex all played glass Checkers and I won, so I let two other people play and one of them quit nd asked me to play for him. So, I won and at the end, Austin started throwing the checkers and one of them split and cut my finger. His mom got mad and then I left to go drop off my mom at the hospital.

Once apon a time, there was a dog named Tyson. He lived on planet Kubach (Koo-bach). He was a German Shepard, Rottwieler, Pitbull mix. He had a evil twin brother named Ryan.

Two galaxies away, the top secret alien agency was looking for Ryan. So, the T.S.A.A came to planet Kubach. They immediately saw Tyson and thought he was Ryan and loaded him up and threw him in doggie jail. On the way there, Tyson had been trying to convince them that they had the wrong dog. Considering that they had cases like that they thought that Tyson was lieing.

When they got to the doggie jail,they put him in cell 123456789 since every other cell was full. It was a good thing that he got to go to that paticular doggie jail because a volunteer named Valiere was there. She just happend to speak dog. Tyson had told her all about his brother Ryan and all the bad things that he had done. Since Valiere was a dog lover, she told the T.S.A.A that they had had the wrong dog the whole time.

Yesterday, my class and I sang. The songs we sang were "Zumba-Zumba," "Sliegh ride," and "Spin a little Dredle". We played xylophones, drums, and triangles in "Zumba-Zumba". Nobody played an instrument in "Sleigh ride" but Brandon. He played a long stick with jingle bells on it. And Nobody, and I mean nobody, played an insrument in "Spin a little Dredle". When I was performing, I felt {at first} like there were butterflies in my stomach. It lightened up until I saw my mom & dad. After that, I felt like running to a trash can and throwing up. It was so bad that, when I was singing, it seemed like the whole room was dark.

This is about when I went to the Alaska Room at Ladd. This is also about Native Culture and what we did there.

At the Alaska Room I made a quiver for arrows, an Aleut hat, and a medallion. I played a game. The class was supposed to try to put the beaver hip bone on the stick, which is attached to a string, which holds the beaver hip bone.

I learned that black means whale and red means sun while I was making the Aleut hats, and that sea-lion whiskers shows that the hunter is experienced by hunting without boasting. I also learned that brown and red can protect your eyes from getting them blinded. Clothing tells which tribe you come from. A quiver is something that holds arrows. That is what I learned by making a quiver. Mrs.Ida said "When it was 8:00 the kids in the village or tribe would go outside to play. When it was 9:00 the kids had to go inside. If they came home late the kids' parents would have to do something for the village or school. On Sunday or Monday all the kids in the village would have to take a bath so when they're in school they are clean."

Last week we had the first snow fall. It was beautiful. Now as you may know, I am not all that crazy about snow, like Shaun is, but man was that the most beautiful sight you had ever seen all year!

Last night there was some snow left that had gotten watered then dried so pretty much father winter had made snowballs for us. We went outside to get in the car and BOOOOOOOM! I saw the northern lights burst in the air, and not much people get to see that. We stared at it for a long time. It was the first and only time I enjoyed sitting outside at thirty below zero! I had a really good time.

I live in Fairbanks and I always have. Now, most people love Alaska, but I'm not one of them. I've always disliked Alaska. Now once you see this, Mr. Noon, you're propably going to jump me but hopefully not. The reason I don't like Alaska is because of it's winters. My favorite states are California, Texas, and New York. The reason I said "states" and not state is because they're all a tie to me. So I've never liked Alaska and never will. I want my dad to stop getting hurt and get infections to were he could possibly die. I also want to not have another car accident to where it takes a year to get your settlement. I just want to hurry up to the lower 48's in Texas, California, or NY.

Did you know that today is Alaska Day. The reason why is because a long,long time ago (around 1860) Abraham Lincoln and Secretary William Seward thought that they should own Alaska. Abe felt they needed more ships for the
US. Will gave them (the white house people) a vision of the US owning Alaska. Since the Civil War they put it off. In 1867 Russia sold A.K to the US for 7.2 million ( which is more than this school).The agreement is known to be the "Treaty of Cession". Will worked hard for the sale. However,some Americans thought it was a waste of money for a cold land. They used to call AK "Sewards Folly" (which means Sewards mistake) and "Sewards ice box".

Yesterday me and my class went on a field-trip and learned about musk oxen and caribou.

First we went to go see the caribou, we saw one pee. Then we saw a baby poop. Then the biggest one of them all came and sniffed me. It was really fun until we had to leave to the barn. When we got inside it smelled like hot, sweaty goat, but then my nose got used to it. She told us about what musk oxen do when wolves surround them. She also told us how much of pansies caribou are and that they scratch their velvet off their antlers during fall.

So later on the other teacher took us to a field to play a wildlife game where musk oxen defend their babies, girlfriends, elders, girlfriends, and elders, I got to be a musk oxen. When we started playing, I slit my hand on a rock.

In around 1942 there was a boy named Martin Luther King Jr. He lived in a time Black people weren't treated as White people were. Anyway he lived on this road where on one side Black people had raggedy apartments and on the other White people had lovely houses.

So Martin grew up in a very bad time especially since he had a friend on the other side of the road who didn't believe in all this nonsense. So Martin grew up and said a very famous speech and said "I have a dream where people treat people the same and people treat people the way they want to be treated."

After that speech he was shot.
