Joe the Turtle with Jetpack Feet!

Joe is the Turtle with the jet pack feet

Joe went flying down the street

Joe is awesome, Joe is cool,

Joe likes swimming in his pool. 

Then Joe's jet pack feet got stolen,

Then he saw Jensine's panda rollin'

"Hey there panda can I get a ride?"

 "Sure thing buddy! Let's go to the slide!"

They rode into the sunset filled with love and laughter 

Then they lived happily ever!!!!!

5th Grade Poem By Sydney H.

The end of the 5th grade has come

The year that ends it all

We’ve challenged ourselves,

Read the books on the shelves,

We took risks and we didn’t fall.

We’ve worked hard and prospered,

We’ve eaten up all of the stuff that the teachers have served

Math, science, the ABCs,

You name it, we passed with ease

We were taught to be respectful and kind

to be a leader and do the right thing

and when it came to specialty activities,  

There were teachers to teach us how to play fair, create and sing.

How have they done it?

What is their secret?

The age old question is confirmed.

I believe that these wonderful teachers are glorious creatures

They’re the best in the whole wide world!

Asteroids By Kristopher P.

Hello, this is Kristopher.

This is my second video game review!!! This time, it will be about an old game called Asteroids. Now, don’t be fooled by the graphics, this is a really good game!

*

The rating of the game is … I’m searching on the web … (Lots of clicking sounds) ummm … … … there is no rating! So I’ll just say what I think of it. I think that is is E for everyone because there is no gore, no blood, and hardly any violence. The worst violence in the game is your ship blowing up. Now I don’t think that that sounds bad. (That repeated on purpose). Any way, I think that this is a 5 star game. It is really fun, and it is free!

There are 2 different systems that this game can run on. It can run on an arcade machine that was designed for this game, or on any computer. If there are any other systems that this game runs on, I don't know them.

The setting of the game is in outer space. You are in a rocket and you have to destroy asteroids without dying. You could be anywhere in space (for all I know).

There are no characters in this game. The things in the game are the following: large asteroids, medium asteroids, small asteroids, your ship, large alien ships, small alien ships, and bullets. Those are the things in the game.

There is no plot or storyline. All there is is… the things I just mentioned and a ticking noise. Well, if you call this the plot, the point of the game is to destroy all of the asteroids and aliens without them destroying you. The more asteroids you destroy, the higher your score will be. You have 3 lives and infinite ammunition.

My recommendation for this game (the kind of gamers who would like this) are the kind of gamers who like arcade games and the ones who like score games. This game has score and is an arcade game.

The tips I have for this game are the following: Don’t get crushed by asteroids, destroy all the asteroids as fast as you can, and don’t die! If you fly into a wall, then you come out the wall on the opposite side.  Your gun is semi-automatic! You cannot fly backwards.

How to play: The game is to use the left and right arrow keys to turn, use the up arrow key to move forward, and use the spacebar to shoot. Caution: alien ships shoot back.

The Muscular System

                                               

     Have you ever wondered how you move your body just to do little things like raising your hand in class? Well, it's the muscular system. Here is how this amazing system works.

     The muscular system, in which different types of muscles work together to move your body. The system starts in your brain, which sends a signal through your nervous system, which is a string of nerves that is throughout your entire body. The brain says where to send the signal to. Once the signal reaches the correct muscle, the muscle triggers into what you want it to do. 

     It is incredible how fast this system works.

     Muscles work together to bend your joints. One muscle relaxes and expands. On the other side of your joint the muscle flexes and contracts which pulls the joint in the direction wanted. An example is when you bend your arm, your bicep contracts and your forearm relaxes.

    There are three different types of muscles. One type is involuntary which are under your conscious control. Involuntary are the next type. These muscles never stop working. These muscles are not controlled. Some examples of involuntary muscles are your heart and your lungs.The last kind of muscle is skeletal. These muscles hold up your bones.

     Muscles are held together with tissue or tendons. The tendons tighten when your joint extends and loosen when you bend the joint.

     If you don't take care of your muscles you will regret it. If you don't have enough oxygen your muscles can shut down. When you exercise hard your muscles can get cramps which is a sign that they don't have enough oxygen. To make sure your muscles are being taken care of you should rest, stretch, massage, breathe, and drink water. Your muscles are powered by a substance called glucose. This is a sugar like food that your muscles consume for energy.

     Your muscle system is an amazing process. If you didn't have muscles you wouldn't be able to move. From chewing your food to pull-ups the muscular system does it all.

The Job :)

Hmm? Where should I work? Hi, Im Judy. I’m looking for a job. I just graduated high school and my parents said I need to get a job. I’m so annoyed. Let’s see.... Burger Palace? No. Toast Place? No. Ice Cream Loverz? Yes! When I walked in the lady at the counter greeted me and said. “ Welcome to Ice Cream Loverz!” “Thanks! I’m looking for a job are you hiring?” I said. “Of course! We’ve been looking to employ people for awhile now.” The women named Alyssa replied. “Well thanks. When do I start?” I said. “ In thirty seconds. Here is your stuff, Your first job is cash register.” Alyssa said. “Ok.” I replied. I put on my apron and my visor. The color of them are blue and purple. Those are my two favorite colors. When I went to the cash register I looked around the place. The walls were blue and purple and the tables were a brilliant blue. Plus the best part is it is located in Burlington so it is really close to home! When my first customers came in they were a bunch of boisterous teenagers. They walked up to the counter and ordered sixteen chocolate ice creams. I yelled the order to my work companion Tori. She has dark brown hair and blue eyes and has worked here for a decade. She started to make them while the group of teenage boys paid. When their order was up they took their ice creams and left. After Tori and I took a few more orders it was time for our break so we went to go eat lunch in the break room which only employees have access to. When we sat down we told each other about ourselves and just talked about why we came to work here. In addition to that we talked about how we could not tolerate those teenage boys! After our break was over we went back to work. Before any customers came in our boss came out and said “ You guys are doing great! Keep the good work up.” When our boss left a mom and her daughter came in. The little girl was wearing a pink dress with yellow flowers and flip flops. The little girl asked for strawberry ice cream with whipped cream and gummy bears. I said ok then gave the order to Tori. When she made it she handed it to me and I handed it to the girl. She smiled and then left with her mom. After they left our boss told us we could go home Tori and I packed up our stuff and left. Tori gave me a ride home because I don’t have car yet. When I got home I said thanks to Tori and walked inside. When I walked in I told my parents that I got a job and that I’m really happy with it!  They said that is it great that I got a job so their going to buy me a car! I cant wait!
