The declaration of independence is important because people signed it because they didn’t like the kings orders.

I think it was the colonists fault because…

• they were coming to the Custom’s House where the kings money is,with clubs and snowballs.
• they were saying horrid threats.
• they were striking clubs at us.
• we heard the word fire and thought it came from captain preston but it came from the colonist.

I think it was not the british fault.

God’s covenants are for me. The old covenant is for the Irsaelites. The new Covenant is for me.

Follow The Hard But Right Way

By: Elise Dannenberg

Have you ever done something hard that you thought you could never do? Well I read a book that someone named Christian had to do so many things that were hard! Follow the hard but right way because in this book it drew me closer to God, to trust in him always, and he is always with me.

Following the hard but right way draws me closer to God. Just like Christian at the cross, he got new clothes. I think that drew him closer to God. That would have drawn me closer to God. How it drew me closer to God is God show Christian the way, so I think he is going to show me the way too, the way to heaven.

Following the hard but right way makes me trust in God. When Christian was at Vanity Fair. All the people there was saying “Buy, buy.” Christian and Faithful had to trust in God.  I trust in God that God he will keep me safe. How this applies to my life is that sometimes the devil tries to make me turn the other way to him.

Following the hard but right way helps me remember that God is with me. When Christian had to face Apollyon he was scared, but he knew God was with him. In that story it told me that he is always with me and I should never turn my back on God.

Following the hard but right way is in Dangerous Journey but it is in our life too.  The journey I am on  draws me closer to God, trust in him always, and he is with me always.

Market Day Reflection

One thing I learned from collaboration is that everybody needs to put their heads together to agree on things. One time we did  critical thinking was when we were going to do magnetic slime, but that was too much money so are second choice was Bolder Holders. One time for creativity we had to think what we could put on our Bolder Holders and we thought we could put on ribbon and stickers. One thing I learned about Communication is that you have to have everybody’s idea, and have teamwork! The best thing about Market day was that we sold our last Bolder Holder at the last minute. We were so happy and we got a hundred dollars!!!!  One thing that I would change is to bring school supplies to put in one Bolder Holder. The most important thing that I learned is how to Market things, so if i every want to market things I will know how.

Every kid should know how to camp

By: Elise Dannenberg

Every kid should know how to camp because you can have fun, you might need to do it on your own some time, and you need to pack everything.

One reason that you should know how to camp is it fun. I like to ride a bike or play in a pond.There is a lot of things that you can do. One time I was on my bike with my cousins that was fun.

Another reason of why you should go camping is that you might need to do it by yourself sometime. So you should do it with your family first and then by yourself. Here is an example. One time I camped with my cousins in my tent, and I was not scared because I camp a lot.

Another reason that you should know how to camp is you need to

bring everything. An example is my mom had to remember to bring everything or you will not have it.

Now that you know that you have to have fun!, you might need to do it sometime by YOURSELF,and you need to bring everything.

Newton’s Laws of Motion

By: Elise Dannenberg

Newtons laws of motion are an object in motion will keep on going until it runs into something or it is inertia. The second law is Force = mass * acceleration. The third one is Action and Reaction. The other thing is bumpers that are made out of nails and rubber bands. The launcher is made out of a rubber band, tube and a wooden piece. The flippers are made out of wooden sticks.

Over Thanksgiving break my cousins went to my house to have a sleepover. I had fun with my cousin Jada she has glasses. They came on saturday and came to church with us. We had really fun.

Marbles on a Ramp

When the marble went down the ramp it had speed and at the bottom it went fast. The gravity pulls down the marble so it does not float in the air. There is not that much friction so it goes fast down. Acceleration is the big marble goes the same speed as the small marble at the starting when it at the same height. The force is to make the marble go down fast on the ramp. Weight is the bigger marble will weigh more than the smaller marble.

Jesus is the Best Gift

By:Elise Dannenberg

The best gift of all is Jesus. He died on the cross. A lot of people just like the presents that they get but it is really is about Jesus he died on the cross to forgive my sins that I made. Jesus cares about me so he much that his love will never stop that is why he died. For us and everybody in this world. Jesus loves me so much that he will always cares for me.
