A reason flowers are great is that they smell nice. Flowers can smell like many things. A few of the flowers that smell good are roses, hibiscuses, and a lot of others. I like the smell of flowers.
Another reason flowers are great is that they look nice. Flowers are used as decoration around office buildings and other buildings. Flowers also can come in various shapes and colors. I like how flowers look.
Also a reason flowers are nice is that they help bees. Bees come and collect nectar from the flowers. They also carry pollen from one flower to the next one. I'm glad that flowers help bees.
Another reason flowers are great is that some kinds can be eaten. They are also used in cooking. They are also used as spices. I am glad that some kinds of flowers can be eaten.

Snakes
Snakes are really great. There are hundreds of different kinds. They also eat small rodents such as rats, mice, and others. People also keep them as pets. There are also two types of snakes. Venomous, and Non-Venomous.
A reason snakes are important is because they eat small rodents. They help get rid of rats and mice. There would be a lot more rats and mice if it weren't for snakes.
Another reason snakes are important is because they are cool pets. People keep snakes in cages and put mice in to feed them. I think people really like snakes.
There are two kinds of snakes and both of them are great. There are Venomous snakes, and Non-Venomous snakes. Venomous snakes kill their prey with venom. Then they devour their prey. Non-Venomous snakes eat their prey whole. They both use good tactics to get their next meal.

TV
TV was Invented a while ago. People use TV to see what is happening in places they can't go. It also helps people pass the time. TV's are getting better and better. TV's also help people have fun.
The reason I think TV is important because people use it to see what is happening in the world. People watch things like news reports that explain what's going on in the world. People wouldn't know what's happening in the world if there wasn't TV.
Another reason TV's are important is because they help pass the time. They entertain people all over the world. People wouldn't know what to do if there wasn't TV.
Also a reason TV is important is that it helps people have fun. People watch all kinds of shows on TV's. They watch cartoons and spy movies. People really have fun with TV.
TV's images are made up of tiny little crystals in the screen. They make a different color based on how much they are heated up. The same thing with a computer screen. TV's are really cool and I'm glad there is TV.

Fish
People have known about fish for a very long time. We know they live in the Ocean, rivers, and lakes, and eat different things. There are several different kinds of fish. Scientists are still discovering more and more different kinds. Fish are also used as pets. People also eat fish.
Fish are Important because they clean up the Ocean, lakes, and rivers. They go around eating algae and bacteria. I think the water would be a lot dirtier if it weren't for fish.
They are also important because they are great pets. They eat something called fish food. They are also put in aquariums. Fish are really cool to look at.
Fish also are tasty to eat. They are full of protein and vitamins. Many people like fish. They are served at restaurants too. Some animals also eat fish. A lot of people would be hungry if it weren't for fish.
Fish really help people. They also help other animals. They really are fun to watch. I'm glad there are fish in the world.

Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs are creatures that lived Millions of years ago. They roamed the earth eating varieties of foods. They ate plants and meat. Those that ate meat were called carnivores. Those that ate plants were called herbivores. Those that ate both were called omnivores.
The reason I think dinosaur carnivores were important is because they ate dead and alive animals. They kept the number of other dinosaurs the same. They also cleaned up the planet. That's why I think dinosaur carnivores were important.
The reason I think dinosaur herbivores were important is because they ate plants. They minimized the amount of plants and leaves on the planet. That's why I think dinosaur herbivores are important.
The reason I think dinosaur omnivores were important is because they did both the things herbivores and carnivores did. They helped clean up the earth too!
Dinosaurs were very important because they played a role in the world and helped make it better before we came. Maybe some of them evolved and became the animals we see today. Scientists are still trying to figure it out. Maybe we will never know (well at least in our life).

The Wounded Soldier
Today I went to a celebration for a corporal who lost both his legs in Afghanistan. He worked in the marines and was 21. He had a wonderful wife and a sweet son who was born the day before he was injured.
The air force wanted to throw a thank you party. So he came down from Maryland to attend it. They gave him several awards and he heard a lot of speeches. They thanked him for his service and made cake for him.
Then he told me about what happened to him in Afghanistan. He was only there for two weeks patrolling with his squad. He found a land mine with a wire. He followed the wire to were it split up. He continued following and came to another split.
He was afraid one of his troops would step on a wire so he told them to step back. He continued following. He wasn't watching where he was going and tripped on a wire. He went flying into the air. He had both his legs blown off.
After a little while British soldiers came and picked him up. They gave him three shots in the shoulder and told him he would fall asleep. He woke up for a few seconds on the way to the hospital. At the hospital they fixed his leg.
After they fixed up his legs they flew him to Europe. Then they flew him to New York. He woke up after he arrived in Maryland. There he met up with his wife.
I think he was a real leader because he went in front of his troops and did the dangerous work. He was brave even though his legs were blown off. He Is a very kind person and is nice to talk with. I think he is a great soldier.

Dogs
I really like dogs because they are really nice pets. They also help different people in their jobs.
Dogs are fun too.
They are nice pets because they listen to their owner. They can learn commands such as sit or lie down. There are big dogs and small ones. But even if some are mean, I still think dogs are great.
They help certain people like police men or firefighters. They are also good at guarding camps and tracking. Dogs really help people a lot. That's why I think dogs help people.
Dogs are fun because they play games like Frisbee. They also play fetch with others. They also enjoy running around and playing tug of war. That's why I think dogs are fun.
Dogs really make people happy. I can't imagine a world without dogs. I'm glad there are dogs in the world.

Reptiles
Reptiles are cold blooded animals that require the sun or some other source of heat. Most reptiles eat bugs or meat. Some eat plants or small animals such as rats and mice. There are a few different kinds of reptiles such as snakes and lizards. Also there are crocodiles and alligators. I think they are all important.
The reason I think snakes are important is that snakes eat rats and mice. There are 100's of different kinds of snakes and millions of each kind crawling around. I think we'd have a lot more rats and mice if it weren't for snakes.
The reason I think lizards are important is that lizards are fun pets and eat lots of bugs that can hurt our environment. There are 100's of fun lizards. There are striped ones and spotted ones. They will eat any small bugs that are around. I think that there would be a lot more bugs if it weren't for lizards.
The reason I think alligators and crocodiles are important is because they eat fishes and water animals and eat dead animals. They also depend on a certain type of bird to clean their teeth. They can grow really big which means they can eat a lot more dead animals. I think there would be a lot more dead animals in the water if it wasn't for these two animals.
I really enjoy reading about reptiles. I'm not sure what our world would look like if reptiles weren't here. Reptiles do a lot of nice things for us. I think reptiles are great.

The Rover Boys On The Mountains Part 2
In part 1 Tom, Sam, and Dick learned how cruel their new teacher was. Also Sam had just recovered and the bad teacher was thrown out of Putnam Hall. The beginning of part 2 takes place in town.
Dick and Tom were out shopping for school. They had just passed the bar when they saw their enemy Dan Baxter sitting with the bad teacher. They were talking but neither Tom nor Dick could hear them. They ducked out of sight when they saw them coming to the exit.
They went back to the hall.As soon as they got back to the hall they told Sam everything. They decided to go home and tell their father.
After they told their father they calmed down and looked at the old chest they found on needle point island (referring to the last book The rover boys on the great lakes). There were a few silver coins still in it (of little value). They looked over it very carefully and found 3 little buttons.
Sam and Tom pressed them all but nothing happened. Then Dick tried a certain combination and a little compartment opened. Inside was a little map that had french writing on the back. Part 3 next

Boy scout court of honor troop 220
I had lots of fun at my troop's last court of honor. I really enjoyed the snacks and music. I earned a lot of awards. Court of honors are important because they are lots of fun, and they show the hard work the scouts have done. They are also important because they are a celebration of scouting.
They are fun because we all get to talk with each other afterward. We also get to eat snacks and play games. I hope they will always be this fun.
They also talk about the hard work the troop has done. The scouts have spent a lot of time working on merit badges. We earned 41 different merit badges. We also cleaned up a trail and we talked about it. We do lots of activities in troop 220.
We also celebrate scouting by having court of honors. We also sell items like popcorn to help support our troop and boy scouting. We do lots of activities to earn money and to help our community.
I really enjoy court of honors because we enjoy doing lots of fun activities. I think more kids should join scouting

Sam, Tom, and Dick are all doing stretching drills.They are all talking about Christmas season. They are waiting for class to end. Finally the bell rings. Then they are all called to The lobby to meet a new student named Tubbs.
After they all get to know each other Sam Starts calling Him by his nickname:Buttertubbs. Then everyone starts teasing him. One of the other students tripped him and he gets really mad. After that he starts accusing Tom. But Tom didn't do it.So he accuses Sam. Sam denies it, but Tubbs doesn't believe him. So Tubbs drags him to the wall and starts hitting him. The third time Tubbs hits Sam he breaks free from him and socks him in the nose as hard as he can.Tubbs screams in pain as his nose starts bleeding.
Then the new teacher comes in and takes them both to his office, and decides to put Tubbs in the stone chamber, and Sam in storage room, both freezing cold. Dick and Tom can't stand it. They both know they'll die. They decide to break them out. After they found the key and got away from the hall they decide to head to the Stanhopes Cottage.
They discovered that Sam caught a bad cold when he was in the cold storage room. Dick went into town to get a doctor. He met his friend Harry in town. He said that Captain Putnam had gotten back to the Hall an hour ago and had sent him to find Dick, Sam, Tom, and Tubbs. He also said that he had fired the bad teacher. He finished up in town and headed back to The Stanhopes Cottage. Sam had gotten a little better but was still coughing.
Dick decided to go back to the hall to talk to Captain Putnam. The Captain told Dick about the fuss the teacher made. The teacher was forced to leave. Dick decided to check on Sam. When he got back Sam was all better. They thanked the Stanhopes and went back to Putnam Hall. The End of part1.
