Awsome SMART BOARD!!

The Smart Board is such a cool thing to be able to have in our class, without it it wouldn't be as fun as it's now. Without Mrs.Perrey, next year will be a very boring school year but we will call her in to do stuff on the smart board. Today we got to do tests on the smart board and it was so cool, we got to use there things called Senteos there are like a remote. We would press A B D, or true or false. (Here is a picture on the right). We did three tests it was way easier than writing it down on papper, and I enjoyed it alot.

My Favourite Day

One summer my family and I were at Nipiwan. We stayed at Nipiwan Regional Park in my Papa and Grandma’s fifthweel. The next day, we got up at 6:00AM and drove down to the river. My Mon and Dad packed lots of food and drinks into the cooler and launched the boat. We drove out to a special point that we caught a lot of fish in at the river.

We put leaches on our hooks, but I gave Papa the smallest one and Dad the biggest. I put my hook down and waited, after about ten-twenty minuets I felt a bite and waited till the fish swallowed it. Then I pulled, I said, “Dad, Dad I got a fish!”

I gave him the rod to my Dad and he proved to himself that it was a snag. I said, “No it’s a fish!”

“Well, reel it in.” said Dad, and after about 5 minuets I finally got it in and it was an 8lb walleye!

My Mom, Dad and Papa were very proud me. We took some pictures together with the fish. We fished for a few more hours, about Four-Five more. Then we headed back in and told Grandma all about it. It was my favorite day ever!

Living on a Raft for 3 Months

My name is Bobbitt Johnson and I know all about living on a raft for 3 months. Now at first you might go insane, but I made friends with an albatross. I set out on my raft in 1972 in Texas. With all I would need, a transistor radio, a raft, lots of food, and PEPTO BISMIO! I also took a radio, a boiler for water, and more PEPTO BISMIO. I set out at 9:00am. It took me a month to get to Brazil and then 2 months to track back. My albatross kept me company when my radio batteries ran out. I ran out of water and PEPTO BISMIO in the first 2 months. I made it back 3 months later soaked in water. I was happy to be backed so I could get to my yacht and sail the rest of the world.

Watershed

Watersheds are all over our provinces, epically Saskatchewan. They provide shelter and a habitat for marine and mammal life. A watershed can also be called a river basin, drainage area, water basin, catchment area, or a catchment basin. A watershed acts like a funnel, it collects all the water in the area covered by the watershed and channeling it into a water way. Each watershed is separated by a berrier, like a mountain, or a hill. Watersheds are important to us, because without watersheds important marine habitats are lost and destroyed.

A watershed is known as a water divide. A watershed is a part of the land where rain water, melting snow draining down to a body of water. Which could be a river, like, wetland, sea, ocean, or reservoir. A watershed can have both streams, and rivers leading into the watershed. A watershed carries water ‘shed’ from the land.

What we do to the land effects the water that flows down it and into streams. The streams eventually flow into the watersheds which affects the habitats that are in it. It is able to hurt, endanger, or even kill the wildlife, or maybe us. Ways we are destroying our watersheds are by emitting toxic poloution, and the destruction of natural areas. We can help our watersheds by not polluting or destroying natural areas. We also are able to help more by not pouring things that you don’t want in a lake. Even though the water is cleaned, some of the chemicals can not get removed and it will go back into a natural marine habitat. Those are just some of the things you can do. Without water everything and all things would die in this world. Like trees, bugs, humans, plant life, and all mammals, and marine life. We all need water, so that is why we need our water, and our watersheds.

The Best Christmas Ever

The best Christmas I’ve ever had was this past one. Four days before Christmas our family had our Christmas celebration at my Grandma’s house. This is because my Uncle Curt, Auntie Linda, and my cousins Ryan, Rachel, and Lucas were going to go to P.A. We hung around a bit then ate supper. After supper we opened presents and then played with them.
On Christmas Day I woke up to a note that said I was going on a scavenger hunt to find a present. After I found all 10 clues, it told me to go back upstairs to the living room and to find what holds coffee and sometimes feet. It took me about 10 minutes to figure it out. It was the coffee table. Underneath the coffee table was the present. The present was a brand NEW HP Pavilion Entertainment PC. It was the best Christmas I ever had.
