Experiment

Today we did an experiment about blubber.   First we filled up buckets with water and ice.  Then we got gloves and we had to put Crisco on one of them.  And then we put our hands in the water.  And then I took them out.  I learned that fat keeps whales warm by putting Crisco on my hand.

The First Pet Dog

One day somebody saw a baby wolf.   And their name was Bob.  And he brought the wolf in his cave and fed him.   He named his wolf Scrappy because after he ate he left scraps.  the next morning Scrappy jumped on bob when he was still sleeping.  Because Scrappy wanted to play.  And bob gave Scrappy a bath in a little river.  And Bob made a potion out of leaves, sticks, grass, and pieces of plants.  Bob dumped some on his hand and scrubbed Scrappy with it.  The next day Scrappy was a dog and Bob was pretending to be surprised.  Scrappy looked at himself.  He started running around the cave.   And then he started liking the way he looked.

My Trip to China

Hi!  My name is Kaitlyn.  I went to China last week and I came back yesterday.  And I got to stand on the Great Wall.   At first when I started using chopsticks I had no ide how to use them.  And I saw the phoenix and took a picture of it.  I was there for the New Year and someone gave me a red envelope.

My Partner

When I pick a partner I would trust Morgan.  I would pick Morgan because she works neat and so do I.  And plus Morgan and I have good handwriting.  And Morgan and I have very good imaginations.   We are both very smart.

Pumpkin Math

Beginning: We measured pumpkins and we used measuring tape.  It was fun.
