Our Army

The most important thing about our army is

that try to take our country.

    They care about all the people in our country.
    If there wasn't any army the bad guys would take over.

A Book

that I love a good book.

My Country

The most important thing about our country is
that they protect us, and give love

But the most important thing about our country is
that they protect us, and give love
to everybody in the world.

By: Michael G.
My Hamster

But, the most important thing about me is
that I love my hamster.

By: Zachary M.
Karate

The most important thing about karate is
you change ranks!
    You change ranks to be a higher belt.
    You throw different kicks and different blocks.
    You do self - defense Katas, weapons, and sparing.
But, the most important thing about karate is
you change ranks!

House Poems

This is the house where Victoria lives.
This is where Victoria spins on her spinning wheel everyday to exercise.
This is where she eats her food and drinks her water!
And you can hear her spinning wheel go like this, EEEK!

And someone always wants to take her out,
but my friends can't because she already escaped, twice!
