Duke v.s. UNC (mens basketball)

Have you ever wondered who likes Duke or UNC? Well, now you can learn. My partner and I have interviewed the other 5th graders in our wheel about which basketball team people like better; Duke or UNC.
There are 14 people in our wheel. We interviewed them all, and figured out some results.
Out of 14 people only 1 liked Duke, and her favorite player was Brian Zubek. The other 13 people all liked UNC, and most of them said their favorite player was either John Henson, or Larry Drew.
So, that's pretty much all we have to say!!! So, see you later!

Cookie Monster vs. Veggie Monster

FUN FACT!!!
The average human eats 3 million cookies in their lifetime while the average cookie monster eats 10 million cookies in it's lifetime!


First things first, has anyone watched Sesame Street lately? If so, have you seen this creature, veggie monster? He's green!!!! Plus, he eats fruit, not vegtables! There are many nuisances about this monster.
Second, he doesn't spill crumbs all over himself because veggies don't crumble!
Third this show is loosing viewers because of this outburst of a creature!!

These are a few thoughts and comments about this monster we've known to call veggie monster:
Sharon G says: "It's just sad."
Emily F: "I feel that veggie monster is the worst excuse of for fun on a kid's TV show that I've ever seen!"
Marina R: "He is a sorry excuse of a monster."
Ms. F says: "I think cookie monster is more exciting--cookie monster is just cookie monster and he will always be."
Kelly S:"Veggie monster is the reason I don't watch this show anymore."
Hazel P: "He is bad because kids want cookies-- not veggies!!!!"
Some thoughts have been stated; some facts have been stated; and even a FUN FACT!!! has been stated! So, here's the true question:
Will they change veggie monster back to cookie monster, or will we have to do it the hard way........

Penguins

The penguins predators are orcas, lepord seals, sea lions, lizards, rats, ferrets, and foxes. When the mom penguin lays eggs the parents take turns finding food. When the chicks are born they start calling their parents because the parents tell them apart from their voice.

WHY CROCS (SHOES) ARE DANGEROUS

Many people consider crocs comfortable shoes, but what they don't know is that they can majorly hurt you. There have been stories released about people that have had thier feet and toes sucked in escalators becuasee of the magnetic force of the escalator and the rubber. A 10 year old from Kansas City got her toe cut in the escalator on a trip to the mall. The mom quotes, "When I removed her croc when she was complaing, it was frightining." Mant other parents have stories on how thier children and even themselfs have gotten injuired while wearing crocs. Along with that, crocs slow children down on the playground and cause them to fall on climbing walls. Quotes from others: "I like them becuase they are good water shoes", David H. ; "I do not like them because they are uncomfortable", Emily F. ; "They are OK becuase you can wear them all the time", Parker H ; "I like them because you can wear them in the rain", Ms. F ; " Crocs hurt my feet and made me cry", Hazel P. ; "They slide off and make me fall", Kelly S. As you can see many people have many different opinons on crocs and how good of shoes they are. Although they are good water shoes, they can be dangerous so our advice is not to buy these shoes even if it is tempting. If you want to try them for the beach that would be fine but, as soon as you go to the mall just call your self dead.
