Prince Puggly BY: Robert Paul Weston

Prince Puggly lived in the nearby Kingdom next door and the way they dress surely not to impress! But at the Kingdom of Spiff they dress more politely and they were sure not to miss. This book is amazing from someone that’s read it before. I love how they changed that fonts every once in a while. My favorite part was when Francesca didn’t want to dress up she just wanted to read her books.

2014…

2014 was an awesome year because I got to spend a lot of my family, Especially on the holidays. Last but not least I turned 10 double digits and that was really important because I get to do most things that I couldn’t do when I was 9.

 

The biggest event for me in 2014 was when I went on a long car trip to Annapolis. I got to go over this HUGE bridge over-looking the water. But then we had to get my sister from this college she was visiting.

 

The biggest event in the world was when Frozen won an Oscar at the Academy Awards for best animated movie. Frozen is a n entertaining movie coming from someone who watched the movie it was AWESOME.

 

I hope to spend more time with my family and go to middle school.

The Goddess of Kindness

The Goddess Of Kindness

By: Esther

About 100 years ago, there lived a goddess named Amina. And Amina was the goddess of kindness. She helped them all, and why? We dont know why and were about to find out…

 

Amina was the daughter of Zeus. And she helped everyone she met. That’s why she was the goddess of kindness. But one day she was playing with Poseidon, in the water.

“Marco!” shouted Poseidon.

“Polo!” shouted Amina.

“Marco!” shouted Poseidon.

But that time Amina did not answer.

“Marco?…” repeated Poseidon.

Amina saw a girl on a raft , but wait! She knew who that was… It was the long-lost Princess Ariadne.

“King Minos was looking for you for 9 whole months” said Amina.

“ If he cared so much why didn’t he come to a place away from the land?” responded Princess Ariadne.

“ I don’t know why… but we have to get you home!” said Amina.

Amina jumped on the raft with the Princess and they paddled until  they got to dry land. Once they placed the raft at the the side of the river,  they started walking and walking for about 3 minutes and they have already started getting tired.

“Ariadne! Amina!” shouted Daedalus.

“Daedalus!” they both shouted at the same time.

“What are you doing here?” said Amina.

“I’m back from Athens! What are you doing here?” said Daedalus.

“I need to get the princess back home, can you help?” said Amina.

“Yes of course, and you know what? It’s your lucky day! I’ve made new wings, and you can borrow them.” said Daedalus.

As soon as Amina and Princess Ariadne got the wings from Daedalus, they took off! Flying into the mid-air. They saw the castle from a birds eye-view and landed on the entrance. And you know what? King Minos came down the steps and hugged Princess Ariadne.

“ARIADNE!” “DAD!” they shouted at the same time.

“Thank You Amina!”said King Minos.

“Your Welcome King!” said Amina.

Once Amina heard lightning she knew that was the key to go home. Amina left with a smile on her face knowing she had done something great! But when she got outside of the castle she saw all the Gods and Goddesses lined up looking straight at Amina.

“What did I do?” said Amina.

“Nothing..You did nothing, But we are disappointed at you.” said Zeus.

“Why? I just got the Princess back home” said Amina.

“Oh we know… its just that you left Poseidon without permission and you didn’t say thank you to Daedalus once he gave you the wings. I mean you are the Goddess of Kindness and thats what you do.” said Zeus.

“How did you know?” said Amina

“I’ve been watching you and this is what we have to do…” said Zeus.

All the Gods and Goddesses made a box and it was a tall box and Amina fell inside. And that’s what happened to…

AMINA THE GODDESS OF KINDNESS…

Mal And Chad By: Stephen McCranie

Mal is a boy who loves adventures with his dog Chad. But when his crush and  school work get in the way of that ,he is a little bit confused. He is even more confused when his teacher gives him and his classmates an assignment. And the assignment is to answer the following question ” What You Want To Be When You Grow Up”  and he doesn’t know what to do! But when he uses his  Mini-Mega-Morpher a.k.a his mom’s old vacuum cleaner for a  Deep-Sea Exploration in his Sink Full of Dirty Dishwater he decides that is not for him. Then he decides to use his time machine and land at the prehistoric times when they meet a Ceratosaurus and is chased until the Dino got confused and went another way. They found there back to the time machine. Mal returned to class with an idea of what he wants to be when he grows up. Instead of saying it he wrote it down on a letter. And then he goes on another adventure.

My favorite part was when he went on a Deep-Sea Exploration. I found it pretty cool that he used an old vacuum cleaner to have an adventure in a sink full of DIRTY dishwater and he had a lot of fun. I wish I could do that if that was only possible!

The Ninth Amendment

The Ninth Amendment

The Constitution is a 4 page document made in 1787 that still runs are country to this day. There are 27 amendments made but,the ninth amendment is unquestionably important. Just because, people think that the laws listed in the constitution are very important (and a lot of them are). There are rights that you and me have. Although if you chose to break the law (lets say for an example) there will be consequences.

When The Ninth Amendment says that ” Just because these rights are listed in the constitution doesn’t mean you don’t have other rights too.” If don’t know what that means, it means that you can insult the president on social media that’s a right you can say any thing you want too no one can take that away,but in a quick second that small little comment can turn into the this big thing and next thing you know are getting arrested.

 

The Car Safety Movement


Unsafe Or Not, Car Safety First

By: Esther

The Car Safety Movement” was a serious movement. It started in the 1870s.  People died and were injured because they didn’t have the safety that we have now. The technology that we have now is more safer than they had back then. We have invented seat belts,car seats, airbags and crash dummies,so less people will die or be injured and more people will be smiling.

Seat Belts- The seat belt supported The Car Safety Movement with a great deal of importance. The seat belt was not approved until 1983 because, the government did not know if the seat belt was safe or not . So in the amount of time they used the Mandatory Belt, for 2 entire months. You would be surprised how many people put the seat belt on “Incorrectly”. Did you know that ¾ crashes occur within 25 miles of your home? Also,VolvoBRAVO you made Car Safety one step closer to PERFECT!! This invention will help us and many years to come.

Car Seats- Car seats are a great way to make kids safer and protected in the car. Less than 30 years ago, car seats weren’t required for kids. This was estimated by 1984 only half of all children under the age of four were in car seats. The mid 1970s for children car safety was beginning to make an impact on parents and they started thinking “I don’t want my child to get hurt”. Before this invention parents used to put there kids in canvas bags.Thanks Leonard Rivkin for being a big part in Car Safety with your invention of the child seat.  This man used to own a furniture shop. How cool is that?

Air Bags- You might be wondering what an airbag is?An airbag is a soft pillow to land against, if you are ever in a car crash. Statistics reduce the risk of dying in a direct frontal crash by 30 percent. Today, some cars go beyond having dual airbags to having 6 or even 8 airbags. What an airbag wants to do is to slow the passengers speed to zero with little or no damage.You
know what John W. Hetrick you deserve a round of applause.

Crash Test Dummies-  This was made for testing out inventions in the car to see if its going to be safe to put on sale. This way companies put out SAFE products and they keep their buyers safe. The Dummy is placed inside the test vehicle and is put on the seat, then is put in the position that a regular person would be sitting in and then is tested. Samuel W. Alderson  AMAZING JOB with this and your creation. Your name will be remembered.

Ultimately… This Quote I found really meant something “Everything in life is somewhere else, and you get there in a car.”~E.B. White, One Man’s Meat, 1943 meaning that anywhere you want to go such as, to work, home, school or even a vacation you get there in a car. Everywhere you go in a car you will need Car Safety, if you want you and your family to be safe.

I’m Thankful For…

I’m Thankful For…My family and friends and the support they have given me for 10 years. Also, Teachers at my School that give me information and education. I’m Thankful that i’m going to Middle School next year and then to High School  and off to College! I Thankful For everything I cant explain…HAPPY THANKSGIVING! and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Whale Debate

Washington, DC 20008

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Esther and I go to Daly Elementary in Germantown, MD. I’m writing to you because whaling needs to stop! Whales deserve to live, must like any other animal on this earth. Then again, whales give entertainment and kids love that, don’t you want to make kids happy? Along with that, whales give people a chance to study what their habitat is and how they live. Plus, countries already killed 2000 whales a year due to whaling. Isn’t that enough?

Sincerely Yours,

Esther

Letter To King George The III

Dear King George III,

My name is Esther, from the Maryland Colony. I am leaving England because I want to have freedom of choice. We have have been arguing for 10 years now and that has done us no good.

 

Also, the taxes are unbelievable and this is frustrating and the “Stamp Act’’ was my turning point it was ridiculous paying for playing cards, I just wanted to play cards! Just because I’m with you today doesn’t mean I’m with you tomorrow.

 

Even though you’re the king and I have no choice but to obey you for now. I’m tired with your rules and your laws. That’s why I do not want to stay with you. I want to become a Patriot and fight against you for what I believe in.

 

Sincerely,

Esther
