Did you know that china was first discovered in 1250 BC? China created so many fascinating items that are very popular in the world today. In the 7th century china invented paper and in the 11th century china created paper money. In the 13th century China created gunpowder but it was only used for fireworks. In 1766 china created waterproof clothes for when on rainy days you could wear clothes and not get wet. Those are some of the fascinating inventions that China invented. 

folk tale

One day two camels were in the Sahara Desert. They both came across the same water puddle . When they saw each other they started arguing on who should drink the water. One camel started to drink the water but the other one rammed into him. They started to fight. By the time they stopped fighting the water had dried up in the sand.

MY FAVORITE COMBINATION WITH PEANUT BUTTER

My all time favorite combination with peanut butter is nutella. Peanut butter is good with lots of things. Peanut butter is good with toast, jelly and so much more. Peanut butter with toast and nutella is one of my favorite snacks. Peanut butter is only good occasionally. You can’t just eat it  every day because then it gets boring and you could get sick. You should only eat peanut butter about once or twice a week just for a little treat. What’s your favorite combination with peanut butter? 

strained island

What would you do if you got strained on an island? I will tell you the story of when me and my 3 friends where strained on an island for 14 days. We where all on a curies and then the engine blew up and the ship sunk. My eyes blacked out,  and when I woke up I was on an island with my 3 friends Lear, Emma, and Bealy. On the first day it was scary we where all freaking out but we had a plan. We built shelter and started a fire, I sharpened stick and got caught 3 fish. On the 14th day we saw a police boat and we got rescued. I still thinks it’s a miracle that I survived the ship wreak of 2014.

my favorite holiday tradition

Favorite holiday tradition

  My favorite holiday tradition is when we go to my aunt’s hall with all my family. Every year we play secret Santa. We pull names out of a Santa hat and who ever we pull we have to get them something. We also play white elephant. We have a tradition where we wrap the ugly sweater with Christmas balls on it and who every gets it has to wear it. We all gather and eat around the fire. We make s’mores, drink hot cocoa and have the best time of the year.

Arabian Peninsula

 The Arabian Peninsula

The Arabian Peninsula is a beautiful place. My photo is the Arabian desert. Its near Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. If I was there I  would be scared because it doesn’t look like there is anything within 100 miles. What if I ran out of water?! I’d die because there is no place to find water its not like you can just go to the store your in the middle of nowhere. What would you do if you where there?                                                           

what your favorite part about thanksgiving

 

Have you ever celebrated Thanksgiving and if so whats your favorite part? My favorite part is hanging out with all my family. Its not eating or cooking the turkey. I love Thanksgiving because all of my family gathers together, talks, and you get to the members of my family I haven’t seen in years.  I love going to my aunts hall, and playing  with my cousins and meeting all the new members of the family.

I would rather be a group of friends. when I am with a group of friends I can stay up all night, or hang out in side or outside. Also when I hang out with friends it way more fun then then sitting at home by my self. Hanging out with friends is way more exciting then being by my self. when i hang out with friends its way better then being by my self.

The missing dog 

       It was September 11, 2010. Jack got a call from Mr. Wilson. He was the old man who lived down the street. Jack got out of bed and walked down his old squeaky stairs. Jack said to himself, “It’s midnight what dog could go missing now?”.

      He walked outside and got into his old rusty car and headed to Mr. Wilson’s house. When he arrived Mr. Wilson was worried for his dog Cooper.He was shaking and said, “Please help me find him”. 

        Jack did what he did best and started looking around the house for any clues. He saw there was a trail of footprints leading into the woods. Jack asked Mr.Wilson, “What did he look like ?” Mr. Wilson said softly, “He was black with brown spots and had a long tail.”

        Jack could tell Mr. Wilson wanted his dog. He told Mr.Wilson he will get to the case and he got in his car and started investigating. First Jack looked around the neighborhood to see if he could spot Cooper. Jack mumbled to himself “ It won’t be this easy”.

        next morning Jack went house to house asking if anyone had seen a dog. The first house he went to was Charlotte’s. He was sure she took the dog. The last time a dog went missing she was the one who took it. When Jack arrived he knocked on her door and said “hey its Jack i got a couple questions to ask”.

    Charlotte said “What do you want? It’s too early. Just go home and anyway I don’t know you”.

Jack said, “It’s me jack. You know the guy who lives down the street?”

      I just want to ask you some questions about a missing dog. Charlotte opened the door and let him in. Jack asked, “Can we have a seat and talk?”

Charlotte sat down and asked Jack “Would you like a glass of water or coffee?”

      Jack said no and asked Charlotte where she was last night. Charlotte said she was at work because she had a late shift and didn’t get off until 12. 

       Jack said “Mr. Wilson lost his dog and we wonder if you took it”. “Last time a dog went missing remember you were the one who took it said Jack”.

    Charlotte said “she didn’t take the dog and never would have and I really don’t even like dogs”.

Jack believed her and got back to investigating. Jack remembered his friend Tyler lived pretty close. Jack gave him a call and said “hey do you want to come help me find a missing dog?” About half an hour later he arrived.

     Tyler knocked on the door and waited for Jack to open it. When he did Tyler said “hey long time no see my old friend”

     Jack replied with “hey I am glad you made it pal”. Jack and Tyler walked into Mr.Wilson’s house and started talking. They were talking about who took Mr.Wilson’s dog.

    Mr.Wilson said “there was a guy down the street his name is Alex, he always walks by and just stairs at my dog”.

      Tyler and Jack headed down to Alex’s house. When they arrived they knocked and waited for him to answer. When Alex did they asked if they could step inside to ask him some questions. They all sat down and started talking.

    “Where were you last night”? Jack said,because there is a dog missing and we think you took it”. 

       Alex started crying and said “I am so sorry. I did take the dog and I really regret it”. “When I took him he bit me and then ran away, but I saw  where he went”. Alex walked outside and said, “follow me”.

      Jack said to Tyler “I really hope he is not lying and just trying to run away”. About 10 minutes later they started hearing barking 

      Tyler said “over here guys I found him he is right here”. The dog was hiding in an old broken down train. They got the dog and went back to Mr. Wilson’s house. 

      When they arrived Mr.Wilson he was so happy and said “thank you so much”. Alex said he “was so sorry and said I was just jealous of you Mr.Wilson, I will never do it again”.  

      Mr.Wilson forgave Alex and they never had any problems again. Alex did have to go to jail for 14 days. After nothing ever happened again.
