The Cross Country Race

Cross Country Race


My age group was called. My heart was racing out of my chest, I was terrified to start the race.


BANG!!!!! Go the clappers, the race has begun.
I stumble at the beginning.
People pass me, I’m not last but I'm not first.
I hear the crowd cheering people on, I hear names being called, teachers are calling my name!


My breath was out of reach.
I was on my second lap, people cheered my name.
Sweat dribbled down my hairline, I was hot.
When I was on my third lap I was tired, people cheered I had finished the race.


The race has finally finished.
My hard work and training made me improve.
I was exhausted and happy the race was finally over!!!

The moon report!

THE MOON
168f2e7e7be727ec7f2e3cba9fd12105.jpg
Do you ever see that shiny orb in the sky? It's called the moon.        
The moon controls earth's tides.When a full moon or a new moon the gravitational pull with the sun is so strong that at these times it creates more water to flow.

The moon is made up of upper crust lower crust and most of its made of mantle then partial melt, fluid outer core, solid inner core and like I said most of the moon is made of mantle.

The moon makes shapes in the sky called phases.There are a lot of moon phases (actually only eight  phases).There is new moon, waning crescent, waning gibbous, first quarter, full moon, last quarter, and last but not least waxing crescent and back to new moon, the moon phases are seen differently from other places around earth, northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere.

Therefore let’s  appreciate the brightest satellite at night the moon.
