The Garden Parade By Anna Kate S.
At this school (Fairforest Elementary School) we decided to start a garden. But before we could do all of that we had to come up with a lay out of the garden. So we had the whole school vote and pick out a layout everyone will love. After that we had a Garden Parade. We had Hunter (The president) cut the ribbon and we had Trace take pictures. Also before we could cut the ribbon we had people in costumes of different types of fruit come in on the tail gate of a truck. Each one was holding up a sign like my mom she was a water melon and had a sign the said water; and if you want to see pictures of that then you either look below this paragraph or look around. So I hope that shoed you what we did for our Garden Parade.

Who Had a Worse Night? Mariah Carey or Ohio State? By Neilie C.
Did you watch Mariah Carey’s BIG FAIL or Ohio states BIG LOSE? If not we are going to tell you all about it. First off Mariah Carey, an amazing singer, had a not so amazing night. Her mic went off on “Emotions” so she didn’t sing. Millions of fans were there that night and millions more at home. Both were disappointed at her performance. Videos were up by 12:02 on social media. That is super embarrassing!
Next is Ohio state. They lost 31 – 0. That is a big deal for them since they have never lost that badly before. No team has ever lost a bowl 0 to anything before. That is also super embarrassing. At least they weren’t the only embarrassment that night. Who do you think a worse night Ohio state or Mariah Carey?

His famous speech was “I Have a Dream.” Martin Luther King said in one of his speech “Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. But I’m not concerned about that now… I’ve seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land. And I’m happy tonight. I’m not worried about anything. I’m not fearing a man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.”
He went to college at age 15, at Morehouse College and got a degree in sociology. MLK was in the Time Magazine’s youngest person to get a Nobel Peace Prize for his work in the civil rights movement.

Do you like to experiment with things maybe See what will happen if you add two different things together? Well if you do, the science fair is for you. The Fair forest Elementary School science fair will be February 10th. To do the science fair there are a few things you need to know and some steps you need to follow.
Step one: find an idea. You are going to need something you will be able to test. Once you have a good idea you can begin working.
Step two: start to test when you are testing your idea you need to make sure you have a list of variables. When you are testing make sure you do the same thing each time or it will be an unfair test for example if you want to see what will happen if you mix soda and Mentos and on the first test you add 3 Mentos on the other two you need to add 3.
Step three: collect data and observe. Look and see what happened. You are going to need qualitative and quantitative observations. Qualitative deals with looking and quantitative is numbers.
Step four: put it together on a science fair board you are going to need to include all of the following
.title in the form of a question
.propose of doing your experiment
.materials used to do it
. procedures
.hypotheses
.results/data(in form of graph)
.conclusion
.pictures(optional)
.acknowledgements
if you decided to do a science fair project make sure you have fun and work hard.
good luck!
