It might seem awesome to get a trophy, but i think it’s garbage if I didn’t actually deserve it. It wouldn’t be fair to the kids who worked as hard as they can to win that trophy. I think is really fun to win a trophy. I think it’s fun to win a trophy, but if i just sat watching my team it won’t be fair. It is also a way to teach discipline. Kids can’t think they can get what they want when they want. So I don’t think everyone should get a trophy.

The Texas Paintbrush is a light orange and red flower. It can grow to be two feet tall!  The Texas Paintbrush can be seen by roads or fields.  It grows in dry areas. If you’re driving by a patch of grass, keep a look out for these flowers, especially in the middle of spring. You don’t even have to live in Texas to find these flowers. They can be found in other bordering states,too. If the word ”Castilleja Indivisa” is familiar then you know this flower. Next time you see this flower, compare it to this. there is also another word to remember the Texas Paintbrush, it is Scrophulariacea.

I found my information at Texas A&M Extension Wild Flowers in bloom.

This year in fourth grade we have been reading a series of books called A Paradise Called Texas and Willow Creek Home . Most every chapter is about a girl named Mina, a girl who had tough times traveling around. There are other characters like Papa, Anna, Lissete, and Peter. Going to another country is tough without bravery and courage. My favorite part about A Paradise Called Texas is when the Indians and the Verein both argued about shooting a bear and the Verein ended up with it because Mina walked up. My favorite part about Willow Creek Home is when the 7 men went to the Verein with clubs to get food and supplies.

Today Remax taught me that hot air balloons were the first aircraft ever built! It’s called a hot air balloon because hotair rises and cold air drops. When you want to ride with more people use more fuel. The best time to ride is in the middle of January by yourself. Hot air balloons can also be used to race in very famous races. People use hot air ballons for fun sometimes. To make a hot air balloon go up there are burners in the basket. Next time I’m board I’d want to fly a hot air balloon!                              I found this picture on google search.
