I wanted to read this book because I thought the title was interesting and when Mrs. Berkman read about it. I think a part that a new reader would like hear is that there is a super cool dog named Lunchbox that is looking for trash, but at first he is a super hero at the begging of the book. I would recommend this book to a new reader because it is a book lots fpeople enjoy.

I am going to a sleep over with Kasey and Ann. Then I am going to the beach, if I go to Emrald Beach I might see Harley, Starr, Kamran or Sarah. If I go to Mrytle I might see Hailey or Madison. I think my spring break will be lots of fun. I having time to spend with my family and friends will be great.

Something that I like talking about that's nonfiction is one of my favorite animals the cheetah. I am interestead in this animal because it's super fast and strong and I love animals like that. I know that it has legs that strech really far to catch their pray. They also have brown spots.

Cheetahs are best known for their incredible speed, the cheetah being the fastest recorded mammal on land. Cheetahs do lack climbing abilities though meaning that the cheetah needs to use its super speed to its advantage. Cheetahs have been known to reach speeds of up to 75km and can accelerate from 0 to 60 faster  than most modern day cars, that's pretty much all I know.

     Usually on the calendar there is 365 days in a year. Did you know the Earth travels around once a year. Also smart astronomers found out that it actually takes Earth a little longer to travel around the sun. Precisely measuring, this is the results they got. They determined that one trip around the sun is actually 365.242 days (or 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds, to be exact). This means that a year should actually be 365 and almost one-quarter days long. Juli us Caesar under the ancient Romans decided to do the same as Egyptians when they developed our modern calendar. Plus they were the first to designate February 29 as the extra day.

My Wonder Words to use and know:

1. century- It means something like centuries later

2. calendar- Something that you keep track of you stuff on

3. manage- To manage something

I have enjoyed doing poetry this year. Some of the poets that I like are Dr.Susse and Jack Prelutsky plus Shel Silverstein. I like their poems because they write things in their poems that are funny and Interesting. The poetic devices I am good for, are end ryme, repetition, and onomatopoeia. I like these poectic devices because I understand them better than others and they help me write great poems. This year has been a blast writeing poems and sharing with friends. So far we are doing poems that involve science in them and I think that it is cool to combine stuff from other classes to another.

Tryin' On Clothes

I tried on the farmer's hat,                                                  

Didn't fit...

A little too small -- just a bit

Too floppy.

Couldn't get used to it,

Took it off.

I tried on the dancer's shoes,                                       

A little too loose.

Not the kind you could use

for walkin'.

Didn't feel right in 'em,

Kicked 'em off.

I tried on the summer sun,

Felt good.

Nice and warm -- knew it would.

Tried the grass beneath bare feet,

Felt neat.

Finally, finally felt well dressed,

Nature's clothes fit me best.

Peanut-Butter Sandwich

Where The Sidewalk Ends

I'll sing you a poem of a silly young king

Who played with the world at the end of a string,

But he only loved one single thing—

And that was just a peanut-butter sandwich.

His scepter and his royal gowns,

His regal throne and golden crowns

Were brown and sticky from the mounds

And drippings from each peanut-butter sandwich.
