The 12 Ducks and the Cat!!!!!!!!

                                                                The 12 Ducks and the Kitten
                                                                     By: A

Noddles thought she was a duck, she was being raised by Miss Daisy the Mama duck.
       When the 12 ducks Lucy, Jade, Kim, Tom, Zoe, Sassy, Spencer, Roy, Fin, Cameron, and Miss daisy were eating white hard corn Noddles ate then spit it out and ate more and spit it out.
                         "She is not eating Mama" said SNOTTY Jade.
                        "Maybe she is allergic." said mother duck . Mother duck was wise but she was also blind and could not see that Noddles was a cat, but  noddles thought she was a duck too.
        Then they went to the pond.
                        "SPLASH!!!" went the ducks they all jumped in and were playing there favorite game 'dunk the duck'.
                       " Come on little duck the water will not bite."said mother duck when she jumped in.
           But Noddles refused, then all of the sudden she saw a hungry fox.
                   "What should I Do?"said noddles
                    "HELP HELP!!!!!!"said the ducks
         She ran to the other side and put her claws in the fox, and the fox ran away.
                    "You are the best duck ever" said the ducks.  Then all of a sudden Noddles saw that her feet were different, and knew what she was A CAT.
                    " I am not a duck, I am a CAT!" said Noddles.
  

                                                                THE  END

How to Make a Chocolate Covered Strawberry with Clay Part 1

Have you ever made anything with clay?  I took a pottery class and I loved it.  So my aunt and my uncle bought me clay and I made pinch pots and cakes.  Then, my mom saw how much I loved it and she got me polymer clay, like Fimo or Sculpey.  I watched videos on youtube and learned how to make things.  I want to start my own etsy shop!  I just posted my first youtube How To video as part of my vlogging (video blogging) asinment this week.  Check it out.  And there will be a part 2 too!

The Best Day EVER!!!!!

     Yesterday we went to go see Winnie in NEW YORK! First we went through the park. [ around the water].  Winnie is really nice and cool and she likes nature and animals just like I do!
Then near the the big bridge, saw a street show! It was the best. Then under the bridge there was 4 kids and 4 adults, that sang and played instruments. They were so good! Then we saw strawberry fields.
   Then we saw the Imagine sign in New York at Central park.
    Then Winnie and her sister came with us to our car and we drove to the Pizzeria. It is the best. when we where waiting, we saw that David Archaleta went there! Then my mom's uncle met us there it was a blast.
then when we were near the market I got a Jade stone necklace, it was a sign of the scorpio.  Then we got ice cream on Bleecker Street.

Life in the Olden Days

We are learning about George Washington.  I learned that George Washington looks really serious in his portrait because his teeth were bothering him.  His teeth were false teeth and made from hippo's teeth.  Also, I learned people used to call him "Your Magesty" but he said call me "Mr. President".  That is why Presidents are still called that today.

Goerge Washington loved hoecakes for breakfast.  So, we made them.  First, we had to mix all the ingredients together and put it on the stove. YUUUUUuuummmmm....they were soooooo good!!

I learned that Jockey Hollow is a big place.  I also learned Jockey Hollow had over a thousand soldier huts.  10,000 to 13,000 soldiers that had to walk in barefeet through snow, because they boiled their leather shoes for food.

Sock Monkeys

Everyone keeps asking: Yes, Allie has done all of the work in the blog herself.  I showed her how to upload pictures and attach links and she did it! ~ Theresa

I like to make things.  My great grandmother came to America from Sicily in 1920 and worked as a seamstress.  She taught my grandma (I call her Mama) how to sew and now my Mama is teaching me.  All last year I went to my Mama's house once a week and learned how to sew on a sewing machine. Mama and Poppy bought me a sewing machine and this year Mama is going to teach me everything I need to know so that I can keep the sewing machine at my house.  But now it is at their house until I learn more.

Today my mom showed me this really cool blog by this cool girl that likes to sew.  Then I went on wiki-how and got plans to make a sock monkey and my mom said yes!  I could make it!  We had to sew it all by hand because the sewing machine is at Mama's house.  It was a lot of work.

I had to sew the legs.























Then I had to stuff the legs.










My mom helped me by drawing the tail, arms, ears and nose and cutting them out, then I sewed them up.









Now I have a new friend.

Amelia's Notebooks

by Marissa Moss

These books are great! They are about a girl and her journey through life from when she is in about fourth grade until she is in high school. They are written in books that look like black and white composition books and she draws pictures and writes about her days like it was a journal.
