BOOKS!!!!

Today I am going to write about a book that I really like. That book is... Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library!!! This book is about a kid named Kyle that competes in a competition where he has to try to escape from a library. I have read this book before and I recently got the second book so I decided to reread the first book because I haven't read it in a while. I definitely recommend this book especially if you really like books and book puns because their are a lot of those in this book.  The second book ( Mr. Lemoncello's Library Olympics) is good so far but I would recommend that you start with the first book.

                                            Bye, Josie T.

Book Fair

Next week is book fair. Book fair has books, posters, erasers, pencils, bookmarks, diaries/journals. A few books that are in the preview are the World Records 2016, The Hero Two Doors Down, and Roller Girl. I think that the previous book fairs were different because it looks like we have more books.  The only book I want in the preview is The Hero Two Doors Down because it is about Jackie Robinson and I like history. Every year I spend at least $50 dollars. At previous book fairs, I went to the book fair every day. I am really excited about the book fair!!!!!!

Book Fair!

Book Fair is here! Posters, books, journals, pencils, bookmarks, and erasers galore! I just watched the Book Fair preview video and so far I want the books Study Hall of Justice and The Last Kids on Earth. I want these books because they have a lot of action and both had an exciting video. And in the Study hall of Justice it has my favorite superhero, Bruce Wayne (Batman).  I'm bouncing off the walls for Book Fair!

The more that you read, the more things that you'll know, the more that you learn, the more places you'll go!

Bridge Building (ELT)

We dominated the other teams. Our bridge held up 27.2 pounds and the others only held up under 12 pounds. I was amazed because when I saw their bridge I thought it would hold up more, but it didn't. Well, what happened happened. We are going to the district competition. We still have some tweaking to do, but I have confidence.

BOOKS!!!!

Today I am going to write about how I am on the last book of..... A Series of Unfortunate Events series!!!!! The series is about three orphans that face a series of unfortunate events (do you see how they got the title?!).  I really like these books and I recommend them to anyone from the age 8 and above. The only reason that I recommend this book to ages 8 and up is because this series has a lot of complicated and confusing words. There are also 13 books in the series so you have to stick with the series and read it in order or else you will have no idea what is going on. I still think that you should read it!!! 


                                                See you later, Josie T.



                                       

Adolf Hitler and WWII

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dc/Adolf_Hitler_cropped_restored.jpg/777px-Adolf_Hitler_cropped_restored.jpg

Adolf Hitler was a German leader during WWII. He led a political party called the National Socialist party, or the Nazis. The Nazis believed in fascism, which is when the government controls the economy, culture, and all parts of people's lives. In 1933, the Nazis took power in Germany. Hitler ruled as a dictator. A dictator is someone who has total power of the whole country and the people who live here. Hitler did not like Jewish people because he thought they were inferior. He started WWII because he invaded Poland even through they had an agreement with Germany to stop invading. Lastly, at the end of the war, he committed suicide because he knew that he was going to be killed.

SPRING BEAK and Dr. Seuss!!!

Everyone is super excited about spring break. Spring break is in 2 days. We were celebrating Dr. Seuss's birthday this week. We played fun games in the library. One game we played in the library was the photo booth. We got little attachments that we could use than we got our pictures taken. We also had special food in the cafeteria. That is why this week was so fun.
