For the past couple of weeks, we have been making inspired writing. Here is mine.

1. The girl swam underwater
2. The girl swam under the Bluewater
3. The girl swam under the bluewater like a mermaid.      
4. A girl swam under the lake like a mermaid clutching a bright star. 
5. A wondrous girl dipped into the sparkling lake like a mermaid clutching a bright star 

 The wondrous diver Bella dipped into the sparkling blue lake like a mermaid clutching a bright start



For this, we also had to rate our self for vocab. I rate myself a four because I use words that give the reader detail and infomation.

C.I.P

Hi guys today in C.I.P we did the same thing as last week but if you don't know what happened here is what we did. We got our garden equipment I started digging in a line so we could place the potatoes in there but first, we had to make the dirt or soil soft so we had to put the dirt in the dirt and then lift up the dirt and turn it over. After we made the dirt soft we dug it out to make like a trench so we could place the potatoes in there once we placed the potatoes in the dirt we had to put dirt on top of it so it would grow over time.
