The Best Military

 Authors Note: i made this because i like the military and i wanna be in the military.

I like the military because they protect us from the enemy's. They also go out into war and destroy targets to protect us from missiles that are being launched at us. They also attack places and kill enemy generals. Killing enemy generals are very important because they could be planning an attack on us. The military is a very important part of the army.

The Amazing Superpowers

 Authors Note:I wrote this piece because i always wanted to have super powers. They would make life so much easier.

I would like to have invisibility and be super fast because being invisible means you can sneak in where ever you want and go wherever you want. Being super fast would make things go a lot quicker and be a lot more simple. Having these two superpowers will make life a lot easier.

Sneaking where ever you want will help you cheat on test and steal things. Being super fast will improve the speed on doing those 2 things. These 2 super powers will be a lot of help in your life. 



Simile:I am as sneaky as a ninja in the night.

Spring Assessments


Wolves are very cool, but dangerous animals. They can run fast, travel far, and are kind of light weighted. They can also keep themselves warm while they sleep in frozen tundra. They hunt their prey, protect their family, and stay together in a pack. Dogs originated from wolves.

Almost 12,000 years ago humans began to domesticate wolves. People raised wolf pups and they kept the tamest ones to be their own pet. Over thousands of years the babies of pups raised by humans changed and grew much tamer. All though, wolves will always be wild animals, domesticated wolves gradually became the dogs we know today.

Of course wolves became the dogs we know today, but you can’t forget some of the dogs we know today are not as fierce and as fast as wolves. Wolves can run at a top speed of 30 miles per hour. I only know a couple of dogs that can run faster than that. A wolf out in the wild can cover 20 or 30 miles of land in a day, but journeys more than 100 miles in twenty-four hours. I have never saw or heard of a dog that can do that.

Wolves are almost always in a pack, whether it is a pair or a couple dozen. When there is a wolf pack there is always an alpha male. An alpha male is like the leader of the pack. The alpha male is always a male. When the alpha male sticks his head up towards the sun or the moon and howls it means it’s time to hunt.

Wolves are fierce hunters and always on their guard. A wolf can weigh 80 to 100 pounds and are as tall as 3 feet at the shoulder. Wolves can survive in -300 and -400 F. What wolves do is go around and around until they make a spot for them self to lie in the snow. Then they curl up into a little ball cover their nose with their bushy tail.

Wolves are fierce, fast, dangerous, traveling, and light weighted beast of the wild. They can survive in the frozen tundra unlike most animals. Protect family, hunt prey, and stay in a pack together. They are wolves.

Drilling Oil in Alaska


 Authors Note: I am writing this piece for social studies. I have researched for some information to write about the drilling in Alaska for oil

Imagine if the US started to drill in Alaska. I would be with and against drilling in Alaska because if we started to drill in Alaska we would be killing animals and natural resources, but if we did oil prices would decrease. We are losing more oil each day, so if we drill in ANWR we would get more oil and oil prices might decrease

If the US did drill we would be killing tons of animals like grizzlies, polar bears, arctic wolfs, caribou, eagles, and the endangered shaggy musk ox, a mammoth like- survivor of the last ice age. It would be terrible to get oil in the oceans by Alaska because there are so many endangered species there. The US would be killing so many things and natural resources such as trees, plants, and maybe oil would get in the drinking water. If that happens people wouldn’t be able to drink water for quiet a while. And people have a chance of dying because they are so thirsty.

When and if the US did start drilling gas and oil prices would go down. That would be a very good thing because gas would go down to at least 4 dollars. If it didn’t we would probably never see gas prices down to 2 dollars again and if we did we would not have to spend so much on vacations and small trips.

There are native people all around Alaska like the Eskimos and the people in ANWR. The Eskimos are  definitely against the US drilling in Alaska because Alaska is their home and we would find more and more oil through out Alaska and be destroying their homes. ANWR is against drilling in Alaska because animals going extinct, destroying natural resources, and oil getting in their drinking water. The US would be destroying the natives land. We have to respect the people that own that land. If they don’t want us to drill there we shouldn’t because they were there first.

If the US started to drill in Alaska we would be destroying their land, their natural resources, and killing animals Oil prices would go down. The US is  losing more and more oil each day. If we did start drilling for oil we would get more oil. I am with and against drilling in Alaska.
