Blake's Writing Assignment

I just had to share Blake's science writing assignment that he brought home today after studying about frogs. It was too cute! I tried to take a picture of it, but it didn't show up very well, sorry.


Frogs
by Blake Harrison


Frogs are near water and when they are little they even live in the water when they are tadpoles. They live near ponds always even when they are a frog! Some frogs you think are slimy. (I think that's because frogs have different scales.) Now of course there are different colors of frogs, but my teacher said that she only had seen two different colors of frogs. (which I think are brown and green.) There are different types of frogs like a tree frog and a bull frog.

For almost the whole frog cycle, the frog is a tadpole! Some frogs are poisonness. (pretty much just in the jungle in Africa.) The sound that frogs make is called croaking. Frogs hop just like the astronauts do on the moon, but not as high. They live in ponds on lilly pads all over the world sometimes. They have long tongues that they use to catch bugs. My mom once saw one in the laundry room in the middle of the night when she was getting water from the kitchen. When we moved to Brunswick there were two frogs that lived in my backyard.

Wow! He's awfully young to have such a definite voice to his writing. I see talent there!
