There are 6 types of chess pieces there is the rook, knight, queen, king, bishop and pawn the pawn is useful because when your pawn gets to the other end of the chess board the pawn will turn into a queen so that means if your queen does not mean you will have two queens. The king is also useful because you have to protect your king and keep it safe because if your king is trapped and can't move anywhere that's a checkmate. You have to use techniques to defeat your opponent; you may also have to confuse your opponent. Chess can also use timers so there can only be 10 minutes or 5 if your opponent uses up all their minutes they lose and you win. The queen can go anywhere on the board it can go straight, backwards, forward, left to right and diagonal. She is kinda like the rook but a rook can only go straight, backwards, right and left. Next is the knight, the knight can only move in L’s and it can only go straight, backwards and right to left. The pawn can only move forward nothing else but if there is another piece that is diagonal it will move and eat it and takes its place. Also the bishop is my favorite place because it's like the queen but it can only move diagonally and it has to stay on the same color that the bishop was on. So when you are white you have to move first and then black and to make it challenging I put a timer for 5 minutes and when you make any piece move just click the timer to change it to the other person's turn to make them move their chess pieces. So that is how you play chess and chess is a game for technique as well.

Bunnies! Are Carrots really bad for Bunnies?
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` You might have known bunnies for eating carrots and lots of them. They are popular for eating it, and bears are known as carnivores meaning they eat animals which are their prey, and eat meat. I hate to break it to you, but carrots aren’t so great for bunnies after all. Carrots are vegetables, and everyone knows they are good for you. They are high in nutrients, and are also pretty sweet. That means they also carry high levels of sugar. Too much carrots aren’t good for the bunnies. They can cause teeth cavities, and other health problems. And in the wild, bunnies don’t often dig up roots from the ground either. They usually eat grass and nibble on them as their daily diet. Sometimes bunnies are the prey of bears. Yes, a lot of people think it is gruesome. But that is not all of the truth! ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` What are the diets of bears? DO they really only eat meat? ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` You might have watched videos about bears eating salmon, birds, and bunnies. Bears are the predator, and they are the prey. Is this really all of the bear’s diets? These animals are part of the bear's diet. Now, not all the time. Bears can also eat dandelions, huckleberries, strawberries, and blueberries. Plants are also important to the bear's diet. The things that bears eat, vary or accord to the season it is. For example, Grizzly Bears are a type of brown bear. Grizzly’s can snack on a specific type of moth, called “Army Cutworm Moths”. Bears in Yellowstone National Park like to sniff around to find a stash of a red squirrel’s pine nuts. Bears don’t only eat nuts, or berries that are found in the wild. They can also eat fungi, mosses, or different types of mushrooms. Bears will not hunt prey down all the time, bear’s aren’t picky eaters. Bears could also eat loads of clams. When the tide is right on the shore, bears dig up sand and find clams to snack on. In the winter, bears also eat loads of food to survive the winter. They go into hibernation. This means they go to sleep in their den for a long period of time until spring arrives. Well, the bear’s diet is quite… VAST. People should buy the Nintendo Switch because unlike other consoles you can play games on the go because it is portable. The Switch also has free games like Fortnite and Rocket League. I recommend Rocket League, Ningala, and Tetris 99.
You can play with more than one person because you can take off the 2 controllers and you can play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Super Smash Bros Ultimate with another person and more. The Switch can also be plugged in on a TV with the cables it comes with also you can fix your controller drift instead of buying new ones. By Lindsay, William, Jose, and Gissele I am going to tell you about a beautiful place called Death Valley National Park. It doesn’t seem great, but just trust me, it is a wonderful place. Death Valley National Park is located in eastern California and Nevada. Death Valley opened October 31, 1994. Some activities you could do in Death Valley National Park are going golfing, camping, go see Dante’s View and go to the highest point within Death Valley National Park Telescope Peak.

This is a great national park maybe now you would like to visit? (Eraldo Peres/AP) By MontserratMontserrat is a 4th grader who wants to stop global warming. I read an article on NewsELA about the Amazon rainforest fires. There have been 74,155 fires this year. Some people start the fires on purpose and sometimes on accident, but the problem is that those fires are making global warming worse. The forest holds carbon dioxide and without the trees the carbon dioxide goes into the air, making it worse for global warming.
It's very hard to stop these fires because the president of Brazil wants more farming and mining so he doesn't want the forests saved. People don't agree with how the Brazilian president is using the land and effecting global warming. If we don't put out the fires, the rainforest will be changing and it won't get better. The situation won't get better unless we put the fires out and start protecting the Amazon rainforest.

Channel Islands National Park
By Gissele Deras-Medrano Today I will be writing about the Channel Island National Park, this park has 5 islands off the Southern California coast. The islands have many different unique plants and animals. To get to the islands you have to take a ferry. It is a good idea to have a reservation because they only allow a certain number of visitors at once. They are very strict about what you can take to the island. Anything you take to the island you have to bring back. There are no restaurants or stores on the islands. They are trying to protect the animals and plants and keep it natural. Anacapa islands has trails to a lighthouse and inspiration point . Santa Cruz Island has many sea caves including a big painted cave. Santa Rosa Island features rare plants like torrey pines . Thousands of seals gather on San Miguel Island at Point Bennett. There is only one campsite and you have to get permission to stay. The visitor center is actually in Ventura on the mainland. It features a bookstore, exhibits and a 25-minute park movie. By Delila AltamiranoWe were looking at different cracks and how they were formed. The tree roots had cracked the asphalt and bench area. We were looking for seeds and root wedging. I found a seed in my crack. That means when the seed grows into a tree there will be root wedging. |
