Sleepy



We all get tired when night comes. Then we need to sleep. That is why we need beds. But not all beds are the same.


It is a good change for me because my father is a carpenter. He makes furniture for other people and the bed is a kind of furniture which he makes. He say, “there are many kind of bed.”

One kind of bed is the bunk bed. Bunk beds are two beds placed one on top of the other. This kind of bed doesn’t take up as much room as two beds side by side. It is a nice way to sleep if two or more children are sleeping in the same room. That is why families with many children use them.

Second, a water bed can be a lot of fun. It is a very big bag that’s filled with water. The water can be made nice and warm. You move up and down as the water moves. It is something like being on the boat. It pats you to sleep.

Third, a cot is a very light bed. When it is not being used, you can fold it up and put it out of the way. Then you can take it out again when you need it. You can use it for a day. A cot is just right for someone who is sleeping over.


In some places people sleep on mats. The mats are made of long pieces of grass. People take them out at parks. Then they put the mats right on the floor. In the morning people take them up off the floor and roll them up. Think of how much room a house has with no beds.

I think, when we are sleepy, we can sleep everywhere where we feel safe and comfortable. It is in our house where it have bed or don’t know bed.







Fish



Do you know the fish? Sure, you know. It is a kind of animals which is beautiful and amazing life. Some are the food. Some are friends for some people. Today, I talk about the fish. I hope you know it much more.



Fish are animals that live in water. They live almost any place that there is water. Some are found in lakes. Other fish live in the sea. Most fish never leave the water.
There are about 21,000 kind of fish. One kind might not look like another. Some fish are very small. The smallest one is on bigger, than a fly. Others are very big. The biggest fish grows up to 60 feet.



Fish come in many colors. They can be blue, black, or white. Some are red. Other are green. Many have stripes or spots. There are very pretty. Many fish have a dark color over a light color. Tona are colored like this. They have dark blue over white.
Fish come in many shapes, too. Some fish are very long. They look like snakes. Others look like the plants they live near. Still others look like rocks. They sit on the sea floor. Then they sleep. Soon smaller fish swim near. The smaller fish think they are swimming by rocks. But these rocks eat them.


One kind of fish looks as if it has a little horse’s head. It is called a sea horse. It doesn’t swim very well. A sea horse is mostly pushed along by the moving water. What does it do when it wants to stay in one place? It takes hold of plants with its little tail.

Healthy

Do you like the exercise? Many people today like to exercise. Some like to run, and some like to walk. Others dance or play ball. And some people do more than one kind of exercise. Why do people like to exercise? It makes them feel good. And exercise helps make them tired, so they sleep better at night.

You may like to run. If you do, take care of your feet. One way you can do this is by making sure you have the right shoes. Some people like to run on roads, but they must watch out for cars. Other people like to run around running tracks. Many high schools have these tracks.

Walking is a fine exercise. You may wish to take a long walk in the park. It is more fun if you don’t go alone. Go with a friend. The two of you will have a great time. You will get a lot of exercise, too. For walking, like running, make sure you have the right shoes.

Some people like to swim. But other do not like going in to the water. If you like this kind of exercise, make sure someone is watching you. You must always take care when you are in the water.

Jumping rope and riding a bike are other fine exercise. There are many more. Find one that you like. You may need help at first. People who have been doing the exercise for along time can help you. Get started today. You’ll like how exercise makes you feel. More over you have a good health, too.

Mother Dog


The last month, I went to my grandmother house. It is a big and beautiful house. She have two dogs. They are a boy and a girl. They are very pretty. I like it. I ask about it with grandmother very much. She tell me when the dogs born. She say, “A mother dog may want to be alone when she is ready to have puppies. But you can still help. Give her a box to lie in. Put some papers in the box. Then she can tear them up for her puppies. It will make a good bed for them.
The mother dog might have only one puppy. But she could have as many as 12. The babies drink milk from the mother. They will do this until they are about 6 weeks old.”
After that, I ask her about the puppies. How do they feel? She say, “New puppies are very small. These little babies need their mother for everything. When they are first born, their ears and eyes are closed. They can’t even walk. Their mother feeds and cleans them. She makes sure they are not cold.
In about 13 to 15 days their eyes open. Then they can see. Their ears open, too. So they can hear. But they still can’t walk. They just eat and sleep. They don’t begin to walk until they are about 3 weeks old.
The puppies get bigger and bigger. At about 6 weeks they can run and play. Their teeth have come in. So they can eat food. Now they don’t need their mother all the time. This is the time when the puppies get close to people. It is a good time to get a puppy for a pet.
When I listen to the dog story, I think, it is a best life. It is a animal but the mother love them. The mother cleans and feeds them. Not same somebody, they kill her babies and abandon her. I don’t know. What’s happen?
