Being Sick



I don't like being sick because I feel like my body is being stepped on by a giant. I've been sick for a week. I get a fever, my stomach starts hurting, and I start coughing.

Fevers make me feel like there is a fire burning inside my head. I start to burn up. It makes me so sweaty that I have to roll up my pant legs and sleeves to try to stay cool. When I get cool, I roll them back down and lay down to go to sleep, but after a while I get hot again. I do this nineteen times before I just get under the blankets and fall asleep. When I get a fever I have to take medicine which tastes like sour milk. No one wants a fever and it never makes you happy.

A stomach ache makes me feel like there's a balloon blowing up inside my stomach. It really hurts me so much that it makes me cry. There is not medicine for it, but medicine can taste so horrible sometimes that I'm glad there's not. I hate stomach aches.

A cough sounds so horrible that it is like a sick goose is inside of me. I get a sore throat that hurts so much I could die. Coughing causes a stomach ache. Coughing keeps me up all night and then I'm grumpy in the morning and start yelling a lot, which causes me to get in trouble for being mean. Coughing is the worst thing ever.

A fever, cough, and stomach ache are not fun at all. Being sick is horrible. If you ever get sick, take your medicine every day so that you don't feel like you're stuck in a volcano while it is exploding.

5 W's report on tsunami


Last Friday a tsunami hit Japan and Western North America.  It affected people who live in those regions by flooding towns, crushing houses and apartment buildings.  There was a lot of devastation.  Some people died and some were lucky because they got the evacuation call early enough to leave.  It was caused by an earthquake underneath the Pacific Ocean.  The ground just flew up into a big mountain and the water followed it up.  When it dropped, it pushed the water out like an explosive, pushing waves into cities.  Stay tuned.

Today we read a story about the forest ponies. I will tell you about it. In elf land there were wonderful little ponies but you would be hiding in the trees. One day the wizard was so bad that the elves were so scared and the wizard left a trail of burnt ash.
Every one was so scared. The wizard was tear everything apart. Then the ponies got up and galloped closer and closer. The wizard didn’t see them but it was too late. The ponies were right there and he went away.
