My top 5 favorite Easter candies by #Caitlynagent2

This week I did my blog on my top 5 Easter candies.

My fifth favorite candy is Skittles!  The taste of Skittles is mouth watering, but it usually gets stuck to my braces. It’s not that fun picking candy out of my braces.

My fourth favorite is Starburst jelly beans! Starburst jelly beans have a deceiving look. They look bad, but when you bite into it it just fills your mouth with flavor.

My third favorite candy is, Peeps! I really, really, really enjoy these marshmallow goddesses because they taste really good.

My second favorite is, Sweedish Fish!  I really like the taste of this candy. I really enjoy the taste because it is not overwhelming. It has a sugary taste. It reminds me of the beach.

Coming in first place is… LOVE, love is sweet and sugary. It makes me feel magnificent when I get love from people. It’s my favorite kind of candy personally.

    That was this week's blog comment down below your favorite candy!

Hot Wheels Blog by #Jeevanagent15

        Hot Wheels is a fun toy car for which you can create your own tracks, and then run cars down them.  

       Hot Wheels was released in 1968 by Elliot Handler, who is now 95. The first 16 cars that they produced were models of real concept cars, and for the first few years, they all had red stripes on the tires.

       Four billion Hot Wheels cars have been made since 1968. That is more Hot Wheels cars than actual cars!

       The record for the longest jump in a car is held by Hot Wheels. Tanner Foust, who is a racecar driver, drove a specially prepared Hot Wheels truck down a ramp and jumped 332 feet, then landed on another ramp.

Hot Wheels have been making actual cars, and they started in 2001. Their first car, the Twin Mill, had two engines and produced over 1,400 horsepower. In 2014, they made a Darth Vader car that had a 526 hp V8.

Hot Wheels makes many different types of vehicles including cars, trucks, motorcycles, and helicopters. They come in tons of different colors, sizes, and types.

I hope that you will look into Hot Wheels because they are great fun!

Percy Jackson Blog by #Jackagent13

Percy Jackson is a book series where the Greek myths are real. Percy is a son of Poseidon,God of the Sea, but the big three (Zeus,Poseidon,and Hades) agreed to a pact after World War II not to have anymore demigod children. A demigod, or a half-blood, is someone who is half-mortal and half god. Percy also has a friend named Grover, who is a satyr, which means that he has the legs of a goat. Percy also has a friend named Annabeth, who is a daughter of Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and battle strategy. It sounds awesome to be a demigod, but it’s dangerous. The only place on Earth safe for half-bloods is Camp Half-Blood. The series has five books, The Lightning Thief, The Sea Of Monsters, The Titan’s Curse, The Battle of the Labyrinth, and The Last Olympian. This series also sort of continues on in the Heroes Of Olympus Series, but they add new characters. If you have never read this series and like fantasy and adventure, I think you should read this series, because it includes both of those things. If you have read it, did you like it?

Social Media by #jacobagent23

This week I decided to blog about social media. If you are wondering what social media is then ask yourself if it is a way to communicate with others. It is Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc. Sometimes social media can be dangerous. Most of the time it is good for adults. Sometimes it can’t be good. The good thing about it is you always stay in contact with your friends. The only way it can be dangerous is if you contact a stranger and give him or her your personal info, and then engage a conversation. The only way to stay safe is by not talking to the stranger. If a stranger is in contact with you let an adult know because sometimes you or your parents can get hacked. That is not good at all. That same thing happened to my mom. Some stranger got in contact with my mom. Thank god my mom did not answer. Then my mom got hacked. So Ms. Freedman let my mom know.  

Word Search Creator by #teddyagent4

Word Search Creator is a game on abcya.com. You can make your own wordsearch. You get to make your words then it will put them into a word search. You can print up your word search or play it on the computer. You start by naming it. You then choose if you want it to be a big or small puzzle, lowercase letters, and uppercase letters. Then you make up the words. It is very fun. You can challenge your friends. I think everyone should try it. It is in the letters section. You can not really learn from it though. It is mostly based on fun. You can have a building competition with your friends. You could have the same person play both. Whichever one he or she does quickest is the winner. All you need to do is go on abcya.com, go to fifth grade, then go to the letters and have fun and play this game. This is another one of my blogs about games on abcya. It is an amazing website, so you should definitely check it out!    

Why do we blink? by #emilyagent10

*Blink* *blink*. Sorry about that. Anyways have you ever wondered why you blink? So have I.  And when I found out I was astonished! So let's start off with your eyelids. Your eyelids are pieces of skin that makes the eye open and close. But it does not do all that work alone. Your  brain has millions of muscles that control the movement of your eyes. When you blink you blink so fast you don't even realize you do it. And it’s like magic almost. But when you're attracted to a TV screen or any kind of screen your blinking increase because you're attracted to it. When you're just watching the sky the clouds your blinking will decrease, and you won't blink as much. I think this is really cool because no one really ever knew this. I mean at least I didn't know. But blinking helps your eyes from becoming dry or having bloodshot eyes. In your eyes you also have little sockets in the back of them which holds all the water that you cry and it fills up every time you go to blink. Our eyes do a lot, so never take them for granted.

My Guinea Pigs by #Claudiaagent27

This week I decided to do my blog on my guinea pigs. I have 2 guinea pigs. Marble is a rare color. She is mostly brown. Both the tips of her fur and her stomach are yellow. My other guinea pig is Snowbelle. She is all white with pink ears and a pink nose. The cutest thing my guinea pigs do is when I have food they climb up on the side of the cage. Their favorite foods are cantaloupe, apples, and lettuce. The worst part about having guinea pigs is the smell of their cage. The cage will sometimes attract flies in the summer. They love coming out of their cage to sit on your lap and play with you too. If you don’t have guinea pigs I recommend getting them because they are so cute and love to be played with.

My top five favorite songs of all time By #Caitlynagent2

This week blog is on my top five favorite songs of all time and why.

My favorite song is Lost Boy by Ruth B because I think that this is such a cute song, and I can’t even stop singing this song it is so addicting. I love this song! The song is about a lost boy who doesn’t have any friends until Peter Pan comes and becomes his friend. I love this song because it peaceful, yet has a fast enough beat that it is catchy.

My second favorite song is Little Do You Know by Alex & Sierra because it really shows how people can express themselves. Just think about what other people deal with at home. People don’t understand what goes through another person’s mind. It is also catchy song.

My third favorite song is 7 Years by Lukas Graham because I think it is a really cute song, and I think it's so catchy. It also has a good moral. The moral is time passes quickly so don’t waste it. This is a good moral because  it might inspire people to do more with family and friends, than just having them come over.

My fourth favorite song is Die a Happy Man by Thomas Rhett because I love country, and everyone who has lived will die happily, even if they think they didn’t.

Finally my fifth favorite song is Good to be Alive by Andy Grammer because it reminds us that we only have one life, and we should be all lucky and happy to have what we have. Some people don’t have everything you have.

    That was this week’s blog. Hope you enjoyed, and comment down below what is your favorite song?

My Easter Traditions by #Lexieagent6

On the night before Easter, my family puts out Easter baskets for the Easter Bunny to fill with sweets and little toys. Some people do not believe in the Easter Bunny, but I do. When we wake up, first we open our baskets, we find candy and sometimes small toys. We might get Webkinz or stuffed animals. Then we get dressed up for church. We go to church, then come home and eat more candy. My family goes over my aunt’s house. We eat and have fun doing many games like Manhunt or Kick The Bottle. Manhunt is like hide and seek, and Kick The Bottle is like Manhunt, but instead of tagging people out of jail, you kick the bottle. Finally we go home. Those are my traditions. Does your family have any traditions?

Skype & Hangouts by #agent9

A lot of us use Skype or Hangouts, and some of use both. Did you know skype has 300 million users?  Hangouts isn’t close to that many  users. Even  though they might not have the same amount of users there are many other things that they have in common. For once, both of them let you face time with  people  and call them. Another trait they share is that if you don’t have wifi connections you won’t be able to send messages, facetime, or call people.
