Today I read about tiny people

I feel Happy about what I read today because i saw tiny people.

My favourite character was Sam because His dad had a cool shop

I would feel  if the same thing that happened to my character, happened to me because I will have a lot of Stuff

I think if the author decided to write another part to this story, The people will turn back into Big people.

Are dogs better than cats

1. I think Dogs are better than cats.

2. I think dogs are better than cats because dogs can hear way farer than cats and dogs can help people when they are blind. Dogs dig up their bones but cats just leave their food where ever they want to leave it. Dogs can even hunt people down if they have stuff they are not allowed at the airport like a ton of money.

3. I feel sad because I don't have a dog but I still have a cat.

Make a string Telephone

Make a string Telephone

What you need

.  2 paper cups

.  A sharp Pencil to help poke holes

. string

Instruction

1. Cut a long piece of string Poke a small hole in the bottom of each cup
2. Thread the string through each cup and tie knots of each cup.
3. Move into position with you and a friend holding the cup at a distance that makes the string tight.
4. One person talks into the cup while the others puts the cup to their ear and listened.

What's happening?

Speaking into the cup creates sound waves which are converted into vibration at the bottom of the cup. The vibration travels Along the string and are converted back into sound waves at the other end so your friend can hear what you said. Sound travels through the air but it travels even better through solid such as your cup and string allowing to hear sounds the might be too far away when travelling through the air
