  Hey guys, Disclaimer: Sorry about the delay. I guess it’s because I’ve had a ton of homework and tests, especially the SBA. Also, The Dazzling Moon: Episode 2 won’t be coming due to even more delays—it may never come. 😔 So thankfully, I hope you enjoy the story I made to replace The Dazzling Moon. Let’s do this! Tom was very excited because today he got to go to Houston with his family (his mom, his dad, and his sister Melissa) for five whole days! He was so excited that he jumped with joy. (This is the first dialogue in the story.) Tom’s Mom: Whoa, whoa, whoa—dinosaur! We live in an apartment, so if the neighbors hear you, they’ll get disturbed (and complain). Tom’s Dad: What Evie means is, be chill, okay? Tom (thankfully): Okay. 😊 😊 😊 One hour later, Tom and his family arrived at the airport (a.k.a. the plane’s dwelling place). Melissa: Remember what Mom and Dad said about being chill. She whispered it into Tom’s ear. Tom and his family boarded Magnifi...

  Dolphins are very intriguing creatures. In this passage, I am going to explore some fascinating facts about dolphins. The first remarkable fact about dolphins is that they are really smart. A dolphin's trainer might use hand signals to represent objects. For example, the trainer would throw a ball into the water and signal, "Is there a ball?" The dolphin would respond with a "yes." Then, the trainer might point to a broken vase and signal, "Is the vase broken?" The dolphin would answer "no." Dolphins are intelligent enough to remember the hand sign for an unbroken vase and respond correctly. The another remarkable fact about dolphins is that they can communicate with each other, just like humans. But instead of using English, they rely on motions and sounds to communicate. For example, if one dolphin puts its flipper on another dolphin's back, it means they are friends. If two dolphins jump at the same time, it shows that they are bon...

  Dear Readers (Elementary School), Computers have a significant role in class, like practicing math and English, researching science, serving as a teaching aid for teachers, and showing art videos. Now, you may have a question: Should there be more technology in the classroom or not? Read on to find out why, why not, and my opinion. Having more technology in the classroom can be beneficial. One reason is that if students want to become computer engineers, they can learn in advance how to operate computers and understand the do's and don'ts. Another reason why there should be more technology in the classroom is that you can get more information than you can from books. Following that, another reason there should be more technology in the classroom is that it has interactive games that not only help people learn but also make learning fun! Learn, have fun! It’s a win-win! My last and final claim for why there should be more tech in the classroom is that it can help teachers give...

 Pencil Eraser: Benefit or Downgrade? Dear Readers (Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd-grade kids), When you go to a stationery shop, you have the option to choose a pencil with an eraser at the back or one without an eraser. If you choose the one with an eraser, you might wonder: Is the pencil eraser beneficial or not? Be careful—sometimes the eraser might pop out, and the pencil will start functioning like a regular one. If that happens, you won't be able to fix it back. A pencil eraser can be useful when you forget to bring a separate eraser. Instead of searching through your pencil box, you can simply use the one attached to your pencil. Another advantage is that it allows you to erase small mistakes in a word without accidentally erasing other parts. Lastly, a pencil eraser takes up less space than a regular eraser, which helps you see what you need to rewrite. However, it also has some downsides. While it can erase, it doesn’t always do so effectively. It often leaves behind dust and...

  The first thermometer was invented by Galileo Galilei. It was first called a thermoscope. It was later improved by Daniel Fahrenheit, who discovered that using mercury works better than water. The thermometer is important because it is used to measure temperature. Measuring temperature is important because it can tell you how hot or cold something is or has to be. For example, if you leave the stove on too hot, without measuring how hot it is going to be, your house could catch fire, or your food might burn. The mercury or the alcohol in the thermometer moves up or down according to the heat. If it moves up, the temperature is higher, and if it moves down, the temperature is lower. A thermometer can have different scales like Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Rankine. Kelvin and Rankine are actually only used by scientists, and the scales start at absolute zero (-460 degrees Fahrenheit). One type of thermometer is a mercury thermometer, also known as the ordinary thermometer. A thermomete...

  Water is essential to all living beings because it is used to hydrate plants, animals, and humans. Living beings find water in lakes, rivers, oceans, and man-made reservoirs. The forms of water are solid, liquid, and gas. Ice is a solid form, rain is a liquid form, and vapor is a gas form. Water becomes solid at 0 degrees Celsius and becomes vapor at 100 degrees Celsius. Snow helps control the Earth's temperature, water vapor forms clouds, and rain fills up reservoirs. Water on Earth's surface, such as in oceans or seas, gets heated by the sun and becomes vapor. This is called evaporation. When the vapor cools, it becomes water droplets through a process called condensation. It takes millions of water droplets to form raindrops. When the droplets become heavy, they fall as rain. However, when the droplets freeze due to the temperature inside the cloud, they fall as snow, hail, or sleet. This process is called precipitation. Changes in the climate can affect the water cycle. T...

  You must have had a wonderful Christmas, but there’s one Christmas you haven’t heard about yet: mine! Let me take you through what I did in the days leading up to and on Christmas. On December 14th, my parents and I attended the Snowflake Lane Parade. It was magical! There were dancers, parade floats, and people dressed as teddy bears, mice, Santa, and more. One of the dancers even gave me a piece of candy! After the parade, we snapped pictures, went inside the mall, and enjoyed delicious pizza at ODD Pizza. Fast-forward to December 20th, when I participated in a Winter Waltz event with my class. After that, we transitioned to various fun activities in different classrooms. My rotation included hot cocoa, watching a movie (Wild Kratts—not my favourite!), a Rice Krispie Treat party, and two crafting sessions—one where we made owls and another featuring hot cocoa-themed crafts. There was even a station for games! Five kids from another class joined us, which made things even more l...
