May 7 Journal

I am glad you are here. When you are done with your journal, you have 15 minutes to work in Study Island and then I am going to move into direct instruction and show you how to transpose your outline from the persuasive wizard into the essay. For those of you who did not insert your persuasive wizard yet, I guess you have 15 minutes.
  1. Imagine that you are an animal living in the wild. what animal are you, and what is your favorite time of the year? Explain.
  2. Pretend that you would like to set up a lemonade stand to earn some extra money. Where is the best location for your new business? Explain.

I would say that the best place for a lemonade stand would probley be inside of a mall because a lot of people go to the mall and when you are running around you get hot and thirsty and so if you dont have 2.00 to spend to get a pop you can come to the lemonade stand and buy a cup of lemonade for .25 cents.

If I was an animal living in the wild, I would be a Bengal Tiger in the jungles of Africa, (Not a zoo!). My favorite time of year would be autumn because it would be perfect temperature during the day, and I would imagine that having so much beautiful fur would keep you really warm.

If I was an animal I would be a Grey Wolf. I would live in the snow and feed on rabbits and other small animals. But when I'm with my family or pack we hunt large animals like deer. Wolves are one of my favorite animals. They just look so cool. Wolves stick with their pack and they hunt to feed their family.

If I was a wild animal I would most likely be a cheetah because they are the most toughest animals and they pretty much raise them selves since they are very little and I pretty much raised myself and I am sort of tough because most of the things i've seen and done. Also my favorite time of the year is spring because it's not that cold and it's not so hot also I love this tie because I feel more relaxed during this time of year and it helps me be happy with life because it's so beautiful during that time of year. So that's he animal I would be and my favorite time of year.

If i had to chose a animal it would be a great white shark because they are the biggest predator in the sea and are almost invincible when it comes to the sea and they have the perfect eyes cause they can see above land and below water. when they attack they have an extra eye lid that protects there eye from taking any damege. then they can eat almost anything if they get hungry.

I of course would be a flamingo. I would stand in a mirrored pool of blue water and scoop up shrimp with my beak. I would rustle by pink feathers when a preditor would stop by the watering hole. During the hot summers,I would migrate to Florida or the Bahamas, but when I got board or the weather got chilly I would head back to Africa. Being a flamingo would be wonederful.
