Learning Blog!!!

Hey this week I learned plural and singular possessive nouns. If it is a singular noun it needs an apostrophe s and if it is plural you just add an apostrophe. In math we are doing subtraction and addition. In spelling we are doing normal stuff and to be honest the words are really easy. In P.E. we are still throwing and catching.  In music we still just sing songs. In art we are making these one things and right know we are rolling ink on them!    Well,                     BYEBYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Softball

      You want to know some things about softball. It is a fun sport! As a matter of fact it is my favorite sport. The funnest thing of softball is hitting and pitching. If you get three strikes when your hitting your out. A strike is when you try to hit it and you miss and when the ball goes over the plate in your rib area on your body. When you hit people try to hit it real hard and when you hit it hard it usually goes way back to the fence. Also When you hit it you run to first base and the person with the ball will try to throw it to the first base men and if the first base men catches it and the person is on the base you are out! When you are hitting it and the ball is not in the strike zone it is  a ball. If the pitcher throws four balls you take your base or your pitcher pitches to you if you are in little league. Well again softball is really fun and you should go out for it! Well,             Bye! Bye!

      Starfish!!!!

      This is a picture of a chocolate chip starfish!


                    Hi  I am going to talk about starfish! Think that your walking on the beach and you see something! What is it? Well it is a starfish. Starfish come in different shapes and sizes! Cool right. It lives in the ocean but it isn't a real fish as you can see. It has tiny little gills on its body.  Some look like stars so that is why they are called starfish. The arms of a starfish are called rays. The rays grow out of the middle and the middle of course is the body.   The most rays you can have is twenty. The least is 5. There is a chocolate chip starfish and that is the one above. There is about 36 hundred different kinds of starfish. There is a small one and that is less than an inch! The biggest one is 3 foot long. Starfishes don't have any bones. Starfishes also don't have gills. Well that is really all!     Byebye!

      Learning Blog

      I learned that plural nouns end in an s. Singular nouns don't end in an s. In blogging I learned that there is a chocolate chip starfish and that they have little gills on their body. In math we  learned how to do elapsed time and regular time.  In reading we had to make inferences. We did this clue,clue,clue,inference paper and that was sort of hard. We had to come up with clues and then an inference. In tiger time we did word ladders and we went up to the computer lab and did reading 
       skills tutor for tiger time.The last thing that I learned is that 33 minors got stuck underground. They were a half mile underground. That is deep! Well that is really all Byebye!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Praying Mantises

      Here are some facts about praying mantises. The mantis uses its front legs to grab food. There are some sharp things on the mantises legs. Mantises have big eyes that help them see. They can also turn their head to see behind their shoulders. If you walk behind a mantis it will turn its head. They are mean hunters. They attack a lot of flying things.They also eat mice and and little birds. They don't eat ants even if they are hungry! Mantises live on plants that are green and if they live on green plants the mantises are green. If they are gray they live on gray tree bark.The other ones live in pink flowers and of course they are pink! Back rounds help mantises because they can hide and then snatch there pray! Well I like mantises because they seem really cool and they probably look cool to. Well that is really all I have to say!

      Stinging Celled Animals

      HI!!!!!!  I am going to talk about stinging celled animals as you can see! Have you ever saw a jellyfish wash up on shore of the sea? Well if you live by the sea you probably saw so much and you probably know so much about them to! People who do live by the ocean know so much about them and see them so much they don't bother them that much. If you know jellyfish have very painful stings. All the things that are related to jellyfish are hydra,sea anemones,and coral. Stinging-celled animals of course live in the water. They are simple invertebrates. They only have one opening and that is a mouth.Tentacles surround the mouth. The tentacles take in food!
           
         
                                                             THE END!

      sponges in the ocean

      Hi I am going to talk to you about sponges.The sponges I am going to talk about are real live sponges.They are usually found on rocks or other things on the ocean floor.They don't move around because their bodies don't have definite shapes.Sponges have holes or pores and the holes or pores carry water throughout their bodies.Water comes in at the pore and comes out of the top of the sponge.The water contains food and oxygen for the cells.The weird thing is if something gets cut off it will grow back.It is called regeneration.Animals that have simple body parts can regenerate.Sponges sound cool and I wish I lived close to an ocean!!!!!!!!That's all and GOODBYE!!!!!!
