Dance Class
RACHEL (3)
I skip at dance class. I jump/hop over the magic river (jump rope). I have a nice teacher named Miss Kim. She picks me up and takes me to dance class. I wear a purple leotard with butterflies on it. Dance class is very neat. I go there.

Duck-Billed Platipus
The duck-billed platipus is one of many Australian animals. It's one of the few mammels to lay eggs! It has slick fur with oils in it and a weird bill. It's very neat.
Australia
BY KIMBERLY
I have been to Australia. We rented a motor home there. In a motor home theres a tiny shower. And it's a car with a home. And beds turn into seats? And so if you can imagine, it's fun. In Australia I fed a real live kangaroo. The tun tickles. Kangaroos have pouches that there babys are in. In Australia I always have to wear a hat because it is very very hot and ever hotter in the outback. I really liked to be in Australia.
Hermit Crab Update
We have recently gotten two new hermit crabs, to the original two. They are much bigger, and much more playful, though they can really hang on tight! The bad thing about these hermit crabs are they scare the smaller two.
On 12-15-06, Lika-Lika was dug out to be given a bath. He was taken out by Amy. LL then pinched her, something he's never done before. It was quite surprising and shocking. He's an equidorian, and supposed to be really friendly, and believe me, equidorians take a lot of work finding. Amy decided to give the hermit crab to Cheyne, the master of "animal calming". Lika-Lika pinched her too. They put the hermit crab down, shocked. Then, the thing that almost killed them: He came almost completely out of his shell! He was curled around it! Cheyne managed to get it back in its shell, but it was freaky! Then, Amy put him back in the cage (managing to get pinched again) and put the lid on. Now, we aren't allowed to dig up the hermit crabs unless doing the weekly clean.
We're all really worried, especially Amy, because she has to take them home for New Year's Break!
Good luck, us.
