I am from China. I am pretty glad I’m not living in China. For one, in China you’ll live in a small house. For another, if you are a girl, you will probably be adopted, and everybody will probably ask you, “Are you adopted?” If you are interested in asking me, that’s what happened to me.
Also China is a great place. Just like July 4, June 1st (my birthday) is National Children’s Day. In China, I am from Guan Dong Province. I think I was adopted because my birth parents already had another child, or they needed a boy to work on the farms.
My dad promised me, “If we ever go on a trip to China, we will definitely go on the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall was built to protect the people of China from the people of Mongolia. China’s also super awesome! My dad says, “The Yellow Mountain is probably the most beautiful scenery. When I was born, I was raised in a hospital by a woman named Mrs. You. I also have a few good luck charms from China. I once went to see a few shows fromChina, like the one when the Chinese people fought with the
Mongolian people. First a lady did a few amazing things. Then the bad guys surrounded her…….boom! I thought the good guys came just in time because the bad guys wereabout to kill her They fought. I love China!

Where I am from
By Nisha
I am from the beaches of
Minnesota, swimming in swimming pools, playing with friends and having sleepovers.
I am from the jungles of
India, the Rainforests of Africa, the tiny forests of my house.
I am from Webkinz World, watching TV, the fireworks of 4th of July and waking up after dreams.
I am from Christmas, Easter, Halloween, New Years Eve and Valentine’s Day.
And I am from a leaf of my family tree.

Once, there was a frog circus, where frogs were trained to do amazing tricks like jumping in the air, rolling over, and doing flips. People from all over the world came to watch these performers. It was a magnificent sight. Sometimes on special occasions, they would bring in the “Golden Frog”. This was the elite frog. Although he was not really golden, they always showed a bright gold light at him to make him look golden.
On one special occasion, The Golden Frog was brought out to do amazing tricks like it was supposed to. The crowd was pumped up and excited to see the golden legend. They laid the frog on stage without any warm-up. The frog didn’t do anything. The crowd started to chant, “GOLDEN FROG! GOLDEN FROG!” The frog just sat there. When they bribed the frog with some insects, the frog jumped high in the air! The crowd got louder. The frog was about to land…

I did my report on Hieroglyphic Mystery Codes. This is one of the summer classes at
Rainard School. I have important information about this class for you to read.
· What building are they in? Where are they? They are at Rainard School and are in building A.
· What do I see? I see the teacher explaining to the students about dung. Also students are writing.
· What are they doing? They are writing and painting Hieroglyphics.
· What can I hear? I can hear the teacher and students talking. The kids are asking for help on their projects. They are talking about laughing and glitter.
· What do I feel physically? I feel the cool breeze of the A.C.
· What are they using? What materials are they using? They are using information, books, paint, paint brushes, paper, water, markers, spices, glitter, and cups.
This is my embedded report. I hope you found my information that I recorded was interesting.

Reported by Liz B.
I went to Building Robotics. I see them building with Legos, wheels and robotic things. I see them pairing up in groups. I hear them talking together and deciding what to build. I hear them arguing and complimenting each other. I feel a hot and cold room at the same time.
They are talking about building a model with Legos. Also, they are talking about what color pieces the need to use. They are using Legos and model wheels. They are talking about what pieces to use and they are talking about what part they passed and what part they didn’t pass. They are in the robotics class in the summer Rainard building.
Materials in the class: computers, books, cubbies, cabinets, art supplies, desks and boxes.

Hieroglyphics (Embedded Report)
In hieroglyphics, they were making papyrus bookmarks and scrolls with hieroglyphics. Mrs. Wanda put some coffee in a mug and a picture of a priest comes out. I heard people humming and talking. I felt the room is very messy because they were using paint and glitter. I thought they were doing really good.

In the cooking class, they were making pizza. They were making the dough, and there were lots of flour everywhere. I could learn lots of pots panging together. Everybody was laughing because somebody was about to sit in a tiny a chair. A kid was telling a joke. Everybody was becoming very distracted.
They became settled eventually when they began talking about yeast. It smelled very good in the kitchen; they were kneading the dough. Everybody started talking again when a teacher walked through.
It was very cozy in the room, and the temperature was just right.
The yeast started to smell like old cereal. The yeast was fermenting. I just learned that beer has yeast.
Overall the class was interesting. I learned a lot of facts personally.

Once there was a really strange frog. He liked the warm water instead of the cold water. One day he was basking in the sun. He said, “What a beautiful day for a swim in the pond.” The pond was always warm so he jumped right in! Splash! The water was a freezing cold!!! “O no whatever shall I do?” he cried helplessly. There was a child there and he saw that the frog was shivering. He felt bad for the frog. He carefully picked up the frog and gently warmed it up. “You got to warm a frog early,” he said to himself. He started to laugh and the frog started to croak and giggle too. It was a happy day for them both, because the frog had been saved by a jolly old boy. The boy had fun saving the frog. The boy ran to his house and put the frog in his own warm pond.
