                                              What's up guys?! Cross country ended last week. So now I have nothing to do at 3:15. But on a happier note my birthday is in nine days! This post is all about bunnies. And speaking of bunnies I got my little Sophie around this time last year. (: Well anyway, guess we better move on the the report. *Bunnies have very soft fur. In the spring bunnies lose a lot of their fur so they don't overheat. In the winter they grow a new thick coat. * Some people like to kill and eat rabbits or sell their fur for money. Sometimes you have to put a fence around your garden because bunnies like to eat the veggies. *Cotton tailed Rabbits are all brown with a white tail. Other rabbits like Polish or Lop bunnies are all diffrent colors and are sold in pet stores. *Wild bunnies eat lots of veggies and fresh clover. Bunnies that are pet...

                                                               Hey guys! For my birthday last year my Grandma sent me an aduio recording of Sarah Plain And Tall. This year for school I have to read Sarah Plain And Tall. So I just listened to the recording that my Grandma made. Are you ready?! Anna Witting was baking bread one spring morning. While her little brother Caleb  was watching and asking questions about their Mother who had died several years ago. They were having fun together when Anna looked up and saw Papa coming in. He told them that he had placed an ad in the newspaper for a wife. And he had received an answer. Her name was Sarah. She told them that she was plain and tall. She lived in Main and had a cat named Seal. After sending letters back and forth for a few months, Sarah said that she would come to ...

                                                    What's up  guys?    Hope you all are having fun this week because I sure am!  I've been reading a book called,"Plain Girl". So lets get started! Esther was a plain country Amish girl. She had never been to school although her Mother had taught   her how to read and write at home. Her parents had been forced to let her big brother David go to school. David had taken "steps away" he had rode in a car and he wore buttons on his shirts. One day he just left. He told Esther that he was leaving. As she watched him go, she cried a little. Now it was two years later and the police had just stopped at Esther's house and told her Pa that Esther must go to school too. So Esther got ready to go to school. Her Mother made her some new clothes. Her Aunt Ruth (who had come to live with them...

                                                                Hi Gang! This week's book report is..........(drum roll please!) A Letter to Mrs. Roosevelt. So lets get started! Margo Bandini lived during the great depression. One day her little brother Charlie tried to stop a fight that broke out during recess. He got kicked in the knee. Everyone thought he was going to be fine but later that night his knee turned purple and he couldn't walk. So they had to take him to the hospital. The Doctor told them that Charlie had to have an operation or else he would never be able to walk again. Of course they told the doctor to go ahead with the operation. The operation was a success but Charlie was so weak that no one thought he would live. But he did and when he finally came home it was a few days before school started. Once scho...

Hello All, Yes it's that time of year again. School Time. In case you don't know every week, (until school is over) I will be posting a book report about what I am reading in school. So let's get started!                                                                                 POCAHONTAS  Four hundred years ago, on Chesapeake Bay Virginia, there lived a courageous girl named Pocahontas. She was the favorite daughter of Chief Powhatan. Even when she was little she wanted to explore. "The Brothers" were going on a trip to spy on the white people, who had just landed on Chesapeake Bay. Pocahontas had hidden in the bottom of their canoe, covered by a blanket with a little bag filled with popcorn and berries. When "The Brother's" found her they were very angry and took her bac...

Hello everyone! What are you all up too? School has already started so my Mom took me in a Field to Heritage Hill in Green Bay on Tuesday. We wanted to go to the school house but we missed the first class and had to wait for the second. We went to the fire station for the bucket brigade instead.                              This is the fire wagon they used in 1872.                                        This is the fire station and the guy who set up the bucket brigade. For a bucket brigade he set up some flags that were used as the fire. Someone would fill a bucket with water and hand it to the person next to them and so on till it reached the fire and the empty bucket was handed back down the line.  Then we went to the farm house where I got to.... ....card wool...... .....and wash l...
