Felting
Today we did some felting with Owen's mom, Maggie, we learned all the stages on how to make felt. It was really interesting, like when you wet the felt the scales on the felt pieces stretch out and make when you press the felt and squash it together the felt sticks together!
Maggie is amazing at working with felt, here is a link to her website.
Commercial!
Yesterday I was watching t.v with my family and we saw this commercial for Scotiabank, I thought it was so cute!
I am so sure how it helps them increase their business, do you have an idea why they chose this commercial?

Swindle!
Swindle=to cheat, steel, rob
This year for Literature Circles I am doing a book called Swindle. It is about two boys, Griffin, The Man With The Plan and Ben, Griffin's friend. One day griffin plans a spooky sleepover at a old house that will be demolished the next day, Then Griffin stumbles upon a one million dollar Babe Ruth Baseball card. They want to get it appraised, so they go to an emporium and that's S.Wendell's emporium, S.Wendell tricks them into thinking it is a fraud. Now The Man With The Plan is going to have to fight to get his card back!

Here is a video my sister showed me it talks about helmets and how you should always were one to be safe!
English is a tricky language!
Here is an email my grandmother sent me, I am not sure who wrote it...anyway...ENJOY!
Sorry it is so long!
Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.
PS. - Why doesn't 'Buick' rhyme with 'quick'?
You lovers of the English language might enjoy this.
There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is 'UP.'
It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
Sorry it is so long!
'Homographs are words of like spelling but with more than one meaning. A homograph that is also pronounced differently is a heteronym.
You think English is easy??
I think a retired English teacher was bored...THIS IS GREAT!

It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
At a meeting, why does a topic come UP?
Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is itUP to the secretary to write UP a report?
We call UP our friends.
And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver; we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.

We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car.
At other times the little word has real special meaning.
People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UPexcuses.
To be dressed is one thing, but to be dressed UP is special.A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP.

We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.
We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP!To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary.
In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UPto about thirty definitions.
If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used.
It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UPwith a hundred or more.

When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP.
When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP.When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP.When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.
One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP,for now my time is UP,
so.......it is time to shut UP!'

Music With A Message
I think the message is if you had to chose between the love of your life or 1 million dollars he would chose the love of his life.
Do think that's the message or do think its something else?
Lip Dub
For those of you who do not know what a lip dub is, it is basically a song being played and people are lip sinking to it.
This is a very touching video and shows how much he loved her to put all that work into proposing.
The Dragon
This is a picture of the Space X Dragon.
The dragon delivers fresh foods for the astronauts in the I.S.S, as well as science experiments, for example they shipped tons of seeds to the I.S.S.
Chris quotes:
What a day! Reached & grabbed a Dragon, berthed her to Station & opened the hatch to find fresh fruit, notes from friends, and peanut butter
Chris quote: Success! Canadarm2 holds Dragon by the nose, to drag it up and hook it on to a Station hatch
