What typical morning looks like. (Dogs perspective)

Hi, my name is Rover, I am a golden retriever. My typical morning looks something like this. First, I wake up to the sound of the newspaper boy and run downstairs. Then he gives me the newspaper and I take off running. The wind howls in my ears, birds fly away as I run near them, and I stop often to smell sniff. That smell is so familiar, it's bacon! Then I sniffed again, realizing that they over cooked it. I ran inside to eat my breakfast, and as usual my owners go to work. Then the second they were out of sight I slipped through the back and ran to my friends Chloe's. She's a yorkapoo (see a picture of a real yorkapoo below). She was in the backyard barking at squirrels and we had tons of fun together. And that is what a typical morning looks like for me.

Snakes!

What animal smells through its tongue and has approximately one hundred bones in their back? If you said turtle, you are incorrect. (Haha!) It's a snake. I recently read a book all about snakes and my mom said it would count as schoolwork if I wrote a blog post about it. So here are the most interesting things I learned about snakes.

The largest snake ever recorded was forty nine feet long and weighed nine hundred ninety pounds! Snakes live almost everywhere, the only places where there are no snakes is Ireland, New Zealand, and the North and South Poles. Anaconda snakes hide in water. When something tasty goes in front of them, they strike, then drag their meal under the water to drown them. Simultaneously, they squeeze their victim so that they cannot breathe. Finally, they swallow it whole. Did you know that a ball python can eat prey that are three times larger than its head? Also, mongoose are immune to snakes venom? And now you know more than you did before about snakes.

Why do they call the green room green, when its not green?

So my mom is in florida and she is a helper for her friend thats works to sell these cookies. So I called her and she was in the green room and I asked "what's a green room" then she gave me an assignment. First let me explain what a green room means. A green room is a room where actors or actresses stay when they are waiting to get on stage. In whatever time period the term was made it was erased but now we have tons of theories about it. And this is one of the theories. Many actors are scared before the go on stage, a person with nausea is often said to look green, so the green room is where the actors wait before they go on stage. Thats one of the many theories. If you want to read  more of them, just click here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_room

The Life of Emperor Tamarins

     Do you know that out of the two hundred and sixty monkey types, there are only two that have claws instead of nails, and that give birth to twins? One of these is the emperor tamarin. These adorable monkeys have always been intriguing to me. Their habitat, diet, and unique physical features, are what make them so distinct. 
     New world monkeys, who live in the tropical and subtropical regions of Central and South America, includes emperor tamarin monkeys. These specific monkeys live in the dangerous northwest side of the Amazon River. One fascinating fact about the Amazon River is that in ancient times the river flowed backward, east to west, and now it flows west to east. During the day, these adventurous monkeys leap from branches and vines high up in the canopy layer of the jungle.  A tamarin troop, which typically has about nine members, make their homes in cozy tree holes where jungle sounds lull them to sleep. 
     Morning is the busiest time for tamarins. First, they wake up, drink some water and get right to work. Tamarins are omnivores. “Omni” in latin means “all or everything" and “vorer” means “to devour". So tamarins eat both plants and animals. The family divides jobs such as hunting for lizard, frogs, and crickets. While others gather fruit, sap, and nectar. The tamarins, who are very good sharers, provide food with the entire family. Like humans, a tamarin baby drinks milk from their mother, which is a trait of mammals. This is part of a typical day in the life of a tamarin.
     Emperor tamarins have many remarkable features, which makes them stand out from other monkeys. For example they are only one of the two types of monkeys that have claws, not nails. This is especially good because it makes climbing and gripping on to trees easy.  While most male and female monkeys differ in color or size, tamarin males and females look extremely similar. Monkeys also typically have one baby at a time, but tamarins don’t. Notably, tamarins give birth to one or two litters of twins a year.  However, the absolute best feature on the emperor tamarins is their mustaches and mohawks. This makes them look hilarious and laughable. These are some of the unique features tamarins posses that make them so special.
     These vivacious monkeys are in danger! Their habitat is becoming bleaker and bleaker. Millions of colossal trees, which make perfect homes, are disappearing faster then you can say “emperor tamarins are cute”. Learning about their habitat, diet and remarkable features is an important step in working towards protecting these creatures that God so wonderfully created.

Haikus




Haikus are a kind of Japanese poetry. Here is how to write a haiku: The first line has five syllables, second line seven, third five again. It's pretty simple. I wrote some Haikus and I hope you like them. The first one is about summer, the second one about spring, and the third is about winter.



Summer
Trucks with ice cream, yum
Sounds of people splashing
We know its summer.

Spring
Chattering babies
Sprouts sprouting, flowers bloom
Beautiful blossoms.

Winter
A hot coco feels good
When from coming outside

Mom's soup saves the day.

The Greatest Buddies

The Greatest Buddies

The Great Sphinx, which stands magnificently next to the Great Pyramid in Giza, Egypt, is an ancient stone statue. The statue has a head of a man, which measures thirteen feet across, and is believed to be modeled after King Khafres. Although the head is of a man, the body is in the shape of a lion. The Great Sphinx is 240 feet wide and towers at 60 feet tall. Because the statue sits in the desert, it sadly has been eroded by sand, wind, and time. Since the 1800s, it has been covered neck high in sand four times. Although they have to unbury it, it still remains mostly intact. The Great Pyramid and the Great Sphinx have been sitting next to each other for 4,000 years, and hopefully they will sit next to each other for another 4,000.
