Magnificent Stingrays By:Natalia Mendez

imageStingrays are nice creatures. Stingray pups are amazing because they are able to defend themselves when they are first born. Female stingrays can give birth to 2-6 pups a day. Pups are very  responsible so they can survive.

Stingrays have great health. Stingrays love to eat sea swarms,shrimp,and clams. Stingrays have hidden jaws in their mouths so if they wanted to eat clams their jaws can open a clams shell. Their mouth is located on the bottom of themselves. Stingrays love soft shelled animals to eat.

Stingrays are majestic creatures. Some people want stingray skin to make hats. People also want stingrays for meals. Ancient Greek dentists used the venom from the stingrays spine as an anesthetic.

“Two Interesting Stories” By: Natalia Mendez

I’am going to write about two amazing stories I read. I will compare and contrast”Dork Diaries Tales from a NOT-SO- Talented pop star” by Rachel Renee Russell and “Dork Diaries Tales from a NOT-SO- Miss know it all” by Rachel Renee Russell.

There are some similarities in these two great stories. Both of these stories have endings with lessen’s leaned and loving friend. The main character is alway worried about her secrets are going to be told and her embarrassing moments will effect her. In both stories Nikki tries to get her crush to notice her. In both stories she is joining a group.

Although both stories have a lot in common, there are specific differences. First of all in ” Tales from a NOT-SO- Talented pop star Nikki tries  to make a band but it gets out of hand but then she gets it all under control. In the stories “Tales from a NOT-SO- Miss know it all she tries to be a news paper writer,but she has her own column is called Miss know it all people leave her notes in a box and she can solve there problem.

In conclusion, both stories were very amazing to read. I love the character  because she will not let anything get in her way. I like both stories because they were amazing to read.

“My Trip To Disneyland”

imageA special time in my life was when I was 7 years old. One summer day my family and I went to Disneyland. We drove and after a while we got to the hotel.It had a fake lion that roared. We unpacked our suitcases and went to the Disneyland. When we got there we got hungry there so we ate chimichangas. We got on so many rides. We even got on a roller coaster that went upside down. At the end of the day we went on one more ride and saw the fireworks. After wards, we went to the hotel and spent the night. It was  my favorite family vacation.

Rocky Grand Canyon

By:Natalia Mendez

The Grand Canyon is a beautiful place to visit. It has a hot breeze. The hawks singing echoes in the canyon. The cliffs were high and made me dizzy and tired. When I was hiking the clouds made nice shade. When I was at the top of the cliff the view was amazing. Hiking was active and tiring. The mountains were  sandy,rocky,and different colors.      image
