Ryan the Birdman

I don't know if you all knew this, but Ryan is an amateur bird watcher! He has some photos he would like to submit for a local competition, but he's just not sure which one is the best. 

Review Ryan's work and help him decide which one of these photos should be entered into the competition. 

If the photos don't show up, ask Ms. Chetto and she'll print them off for you. Or switch to Public

Lobster Phone

As punishment for breaking his iPhone, Jake's mom has decided that he must use this case for every phone that she buys him in the future. If he is caught without his case, she takes away his phone. Do you think this is fair? Why or why not?

Gangnam Sam!

Sam is an excellent dancer, but sometimes he makes mistakes. Here is Sam dancing along to Gangnam Style.  Write a list of instructions for Sam  to follow so that he does not end his dance break in such a disastrous manner again. 

Moth

You must escape Moth before you meet the same untimely fate as Dad! Detail your escape plan below. 

Commander Sanders Jr.

By the time Hector was 12 years old, he realized something was different. No matter how many times his mother told him that he looked just like his father, he just could not see the resemblance. 

I have a suspicion that Hector is really the long lost son of the great Commander Sanders! How was he separated from his sloth family, and what should he do now?

(This will be Monday's DQ, I just couldn't wait to post it any longer!)

The News

The world is a crazy place. Find an article in today's news that interests you and write a summary about it. 

Make sure to include a link back to the article so I can read it too! 

Everyone must pick a different story, so make sure you don't summarize something that a classmate has already done. 

Happy New Year!!

Think back to this time last year. 

What parts of 2012 do you think you will miss the most and what do you most look forward to in 2013?
