Unrecognized Plant


While my mom was putting wood chips through the yard she noticed an ordinary fruit. At our neighbor's house they had the exact same thing. It had a tag that said a fruit name. It said Bonita Peach. I felt theirs then felt mine. They felt exactly the same. But then I looked at the leaves, and I realized that the leaves were not the same. But it still felt like a peach. The fruit was also smaller and a different color. One fruit fell down from the tree. Our other neighbors have the exact same tree. I only know that because it has the same leaves, fruit, size, color, and felt the same. My mom thought it came from the neighbor's yard. Now it has many fruits on it.

Do you know type of peach it is?

My Right Angles and Last Day of School

Yesterday was the last day of school. Mrs. Yollis took a picture of my shirt because it had right angles. I wore the shirt because it was something I learned in third grade. I realized that the angles looked like the letter L. The "L"s could stand for the last day. This school year I learned many things. I mastered my multiplication facts and the division facts. The day before the last day we had our party. There was pizza, veggies, fruit, and cookies. Bennett's mom started the game jeopardy, so we could play. Even though team four won, we still had fun. One of the questions was: What landmark has faces carved on it?  We correctly said Mt. Rushmore.

Then Parsa finished Alpha Smarting on the last day with twenty minutes left! Since he was typing so fast, I felt like he was flash. He finished at least five sections.

 After everything we had to say goodbye. It was very sad.

We had a group hug. I had to say goodbye to my friends even though I will see Collin and maybe Ryan because of basketball.

Wood Working Projects

After school on Wednesdays, I was in an enrichment program. It is called Wood Working. We learned how to cut, glue, and sand. My first project was a covered wagon. My second project was the wishing well.  When I was sawing, I had my goggles on. We wore them, so we would not get saw dust in our eyes. After cutting we went to the sanding table. I started with the eighty grade sandpaper and ended with the two twenty sandpaper. Sometimes I even used the three eighty grade sandpaper. The point of sanding is to get it smooth, so we would not get splinters. At the glueing table, we glued the parts we had sanded and cut. We did one part at a time. It took us ten weeks to finish. If we finished our part of the project early, we could work on any other project that we wanted. I made a horse to go with the wagon. One time with my friend we made bongos. For our teacher we made a blogging boat because she has a blog. It is called Mrs. Yollis' Classroom Blog.

New Plant in The Garden

While I was at Home Depot walking through to the Malibu lights section,  I remembered my garden. I saw a blueberry bush, and then we saw that it needs a lot of sun. And here we have a lot of sun. So then we decided to get it. Even though there was not blueberries on it yet we still bought it. There was a few more with blueberries on it, but they were too big. When I got home we did the Malibu lights and planted the blueberry bush. We put it right by the pool. In this photo there is a picture of it right when we got it.
