Wild Animals in my Neighborhood

 I have a lot of wild animals in my neighborhood. The animals are: rabbits, snakes, deer, coyotes, and squirrels. The animal that I see the most are the deer. 



The deer are mostly coming because they want all the grass in the hill in my backyard. Sometimes they cross the street. 


Here is picture of the deer. 











The snakes are all around my neighborhood and I see them a lot too.

Here are some of the snake pictures. This snakes was a rattlesnake and it was in my backyard! The snake was 4 1/2 feet long!













I don't have any pictures of the rabbits, squirrels, and coyotes because I never see them that much. 



Have you ever seen one of these animals in you backyard or neighborhood?

Isn't the snake scary?

Which one would you not want to see? Tell me!

My Scores for Alpha Smarts on ASKL

By, 


Nick and Sydney








During the past few weeks, I have been keeping track of my high scores on alpha smarts. The level I am working on is the first ASKL.



My highest score is 145 words per minute on eight words per minute. My second best is 144 words per minute on eight words per minute. Also, my third best is 140 words per minute on eight words per minute. 











Here is a picture of an Alpha Smart!














I have finished the whole the Alpha Smart program. There are a lot of levels, and in my opinion the hardest level is probably the last level, Number Keys.





Here is a picture of my high scores, I have 22 scores.

To see this picture turn your computer sideways.

Kooky Pens!

I have a collection of Kooky Pens. Kooky Pens are the pens that have faces on them. They also have names. I have six Kooky Pens, and their names are KingKook, Duncan, Deke, Marco, Cutter, and Doc. There are lots of different Kooky Pens.


Also, they can be really rare. You can tell if they are rare by the numbers below their names.


I have a really rare one and his name is Doc and he is number five.



Below is a picture of Doc!








Deke is not that rare because he is number 172, and his face is a hockey player. It is awesome.

KingKook is really rare because he is number 41. He is awesome.
