Details, Details, Details

Select a specific item to describe (it could be a food, an animal, an item in your room, a sport's team, etc..). In your blog, specifically describle your object with great detail. Then, skip down a few lines and type in the word you were describing. Your classmates and other guest readers will try to guess what you are describing based on your spectacular description skills! (You may need to describe two seperate items in order to reach your 100 word minimum) See the example below:

This animal lives in the sea and is one of God's most unique creations. It may appear like any other fish most of the time, but can transform into one unusual creature if it feels endangered. This water animal protects itself by blowing its body out and appearing as a water porcupine with sharp pin-like needles popping out all over its body. Its coloring is fairly bland, being mainly shades of brown. It however can be shades of blue or green. Some people eat this fish and pay large amounts of money to do so. However, I am not sure I would because the ovaries, skin, muscles and, above all, the liver may contain a deadly poison.

I usually have a label. Inside I have something that you need to have about 6-8 fl.oz. I am made buy Dannon, Ice Mountain, etc. You can find my contents falling from the sky, in a lake, river, etc. My contents can also melt, freeze of boil. I have a cap. My bottom is not flat; it rises as it goes into the middle.

I melt in your mouth; I'm sweet, and I love to come in bags or packages. Most people are addicted to me and some are allergic to me. I have many movies with my name it. I can't think of one person who isn't allergic and doesn't like to eat me. I am usually served on Halloween or on Easter or even Christmas or during Christmas. I come from a bean I can't tell you the pacific bean but you probably will have already guessed it by now. I come in all different shaped and sizes. I am usually a light or dark brown and I taste delicious.

I can make people, especially children, happy. They love to cuddle and snuggle with me, too. I love to be a friend with ANYONE. I am usually made out of soft material, and I am most often brown, white, or black in color. People like to give me as a gift. In the wild, I am thought of as a fierce animal that lives in the forest with sharp teeth and big paws. Instead, I am fun to play with and very gentle and safe. I am made in a toy factory and named after a president of the U.S.A. Can you guess what I am?

There are springs attached to an elastic canvas. Which are attached to metal poles. It stands about three feet off the ground and it is usually black canvas with blue pads over the canvas. You can get hurt if you are not careful that’s why you can get netted sides so you don’t fall off. You can use this piece of equipment for exercise or to jump on it and do tricks like flips and hand springs. You can find one of these in a gymnastics academe or in some ones back yard. I have one in my back yard, with the sides.

Very complex, I hold the key to defyinging Einstien. I can be as as small as a desk and as large as First Immanuel Lutheran School. I'm fueled by matter and its oppisite, I hold a beatiful crystal vital to the operation of my function. I generate an energy field with strange properties. I'm viewed as fiction to most of the world but I'm possible. I have a bluish tint to me and at some parts are near only 1 degree Kelvin. I hold the key to the future.

I am sad that anyone at FIL would say anything so mean about another person. I know that it certainly wasn't any of the 6th Grade boys on the basketball team, since they are all at practice from 4 to 6. And I think they would agree, Jessie is a very nice young girl. Please don't say any more mean things to ~ or about your classmates. No one should ever feel hurt like that.
Thank you; ~ Mrs. Wagner

Some people like to wear me on their feet. I come in all sorts of sizes. I am usually red and green. People like to hang me up around Christmas time. I am usually hung on a nail on a chimney or someplace else. On Christmas Eve or before Christmas Eve St. Nick or "Santa" leave goodies inside of me. When people are bad I get filled with coal. I usually have a name on my clothing like, Rebecca or Baby or something. Santa and St.Nick love to stock me with candy and other little treats. I have the shape of a sock. I also have a small part all me in the story ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. I originated from when little kids used to clean there best boots and set them out to wait for Santa or St. Nick. Can you guess what I am????

6th Graders (and anyone else posting on this site),

I have made it abundantly (very) clear that this blog site will not be used to make any negative comments. I am extremely disappointed with some comments that were made, which I have already deleted. I will not tolerate rude, hurtful, or disrespectful comments in the classroom or online. We need to follow the example of Christ and "Love one another". That means everyone!

I eat my kind, sometimes! I can smash through trees, and I can snap trunks of trees with my mighty jaws. Some of my kind have spikes, poison, and horns. Can you guess yet? Heres one more hint...I like meat!

I remind you of a story whenever you look at me. All the fun adventures you have had from when you were born to nom. Some people put me in scrap books or even albums so I can be cherished forever. Others put me in frames to go on a counter or dresser so they can look at me whenever they come into a room. Some people throw me out and start over with a new one. I think to get the best shot of something you should use a digital camera.
Can you guess what I am?

This object is very colorful. The color changes depending on how it is being used at that time. The outside color is black surrounded by off white and brown. The inside is sometimes black but can be orange and red. The outside can have a variety of object surrounding it, such as pictures, trees, candles and candleholders and various other knickknacks. The outside changes for each season. This object is not something which you can’t move from room to room. This object is used more in the winter time than summertime. We like to sit around this object and enjoy a movie. This object provides warmth on a cold day. It is suggested that Santa uses it. Can you guess what it is?
