**__ Changes __** By Kim C1

Yesterday… I hated to learn everything, But I loved to explore the whole wide world. I haven’t ate any types of stinky cheese, But I ate saccharine sugary sweets. I was nervous about first day of school, But I was confident about homework.

Today… I hate to play soccer in a sweltering scorching day, But I love to swim in the blue cool pool. I don’t eat spicy fiery chilly, But I eat green vegetables. I am nervous about challenging tests, But I am confident about school presentations.

Tomorrow… I will hate to do lots of annoying works, But I will love to sleep on my comfortable bed. I will not eat rotten reek food, But I will eat anything that’s strong and healthy. I will be nervous about my first day of business, But I will be confident about meeting new people.

Dear Freak’s dad (sorry I don’t know what’s your name),

I am Maxwell Kane and I just want to tell you how Freak is well, I guess you can say important to me.

Freak is the one that let me knows that I do have a brain too. First, I thought he was just a midget kid that like to boss people around. That is not true, like what Grim said, you can’t judge a book by it’s cover. So when I get to know Freak, I realized that he smart, use many big words that can fool the principle, sometimes I don’t even understand what is he trying to say! He is creative, always acted like another character, most of them were knights from King Arthur. But most important, we are Freak the Mighty. Freak is the big brain and I am the long leg, together we are Freak the Mighty. We go on quests like fighting with Tony D., finding Loretta’s purse and walking high above the world. Which is pretty cool.

We are friends, that is a fact. Still, I am disappointed about how Freak told a lie to me. Really, I thought he will get a robot body when he comes back, he will be taller, stronger that will make Tony D. run away. But things didn’t go this way. Dr. Spivak said Freak needed something to hope for so he invented this robot body story. Which is not a bad idea to have something hope for, I will do that if I was him. But I still think it would be better if Freak can tell me that he is going to die soon rather than lying to me. It might made me feel better if I can prepare for it so it wouldn’t be to sudden for me. What to you think Freak’s dad?

I have a feeling that I am not a good writer, whatever, hope you enjoy reading.

Regards, Maxwell Kane

= Final Essay In 6 Grade =

This is my final essay in 6th grade. It talks about why we shouldn't slaughter dolphins. Hope you enjoy!
**__ Dolphins Capturing and Slaughtering __**

Alone in the cove, a group of fishermen pulled hundreds of dolphins up on the shore. The dolphins jumped and wiggled in the net, struggling to survive. People should not slaughter dolphins because it is cruel, endangering the species, and the meat is poisonous with mercury.

The local fisherman slaughtered the dolphins in the cove. People sailed in a row of about 5 or 6 small ships. They formed a sound wave by tapping on the metal bars that were on the ships. Dolphins that heard the sound got frightened and started to swim away from the sound. Slowly, the fishermen use the sound wave to force them into the cove. Stabbed with the wielding long harpoons, the dolphins in the cove struggled to survive. After a while, some dolphins got sold to the aquariums, the others were dead and their meat got sold in the local market.

Dolphins are endangered animals and will be extinct very soon. In Taiji, a small city in Japan, had started this slaughtering event since 1675. This had become a tradition event that will be held every year in September. This year there were more than 250 dolphins including babies are driven to the cove that got captured. Slaughtering baby dolphins will leave no more generation for them to reproduce. Sadly, there were only around 200 remaining dolphins that were likely to be captured today. These dolphins that got captured either were been given to the aquariums or their meat sold in the local market.

You might not know this, but if you continue to eat dolphins’ meat you can contract mercury poisoning. Studies have shown that dolphins are one of the animals that contain the highest amount of mercury. In 1950, many Japanese citizens got mercury poisoning by eating dolphin meat and drinking the wastewater. Thousands of them were dead and the children that were born at that time died at a really young age. We call this the Minamata disease. Slaughtering dolphins and selling their meat may lead to this tragedy again.

Every year more than 200 dolphins are captured or slaughtered; this painful event won’t stop unless we do something. Dolphins helped humans through our entire life, but now some cruel people are killing these creatures we love. We must stop slaughtering dolphins before they become extinct!
