The Zoo and The Lorax
by Malachi Church
Malachi Church, Lenin Norris, Jonathan Archibold, Alisha Homewood and our teacher Kym Kemp went to the zoo on the way to the Arcata science fair because we hoped to see the red pandas. We did not see them except for me and I just saw the tip of his nose. Friday, March 17, 2012 was the day of the field trip to the science fair.The spider monkeys were funny. The zoo keeper was trying to transfer them into a feeding cage. The girl monkey went in but the two boys were playing on ropes and were afraid to go in. My favorite creature was either the turtles or the gray foxes. Our teacher said her favorite was the gray fox. Alisha said her favorite was the sneaky black bear. Lenin's favorites were the spider monkeys.
After the science fair, we voted for a movie we wanted to see. Everyone picked the Lorax excepted Alisha. She went with the older girls. The Lorax was a funny little comedy. It had rock and roll in it but some parts were too cute for words. My mom said her favorite character was the Grandma and I liked her too. You should watch it.
After the movie, we were really tired. We got in the car and started home. Lenin kept saying that we should eat diner in Fortuna but my mom said no. Then Lenin kept whispering about Burger King and about how good its burgers are. We dropped him off at his dad's house. Then we got home and we had a small dinner because it was late. We got in bed and I slept well. The next morning was like the usual slow but joyful morning. Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal for breakfast again and a big lunch of cheese sandwich. It was really hot that afternoon. Basically, all we talked about was the field trip that morning. It was a good day.
The End
