That picture of me is wrong. I wear gasses and I am usually alot more cheerful. It was the first of day school on the day that picture was taken. And I had forgotten my glasses that day because I dont wear my glasses alot in the summer, and I was in a bad mood because I had forgotten my glasses. But I am a very pleasent person to be around.
Have you ever been to worlds of fun? It is one of the greatest amusement parks in America. Here is Conner who gladly let us interview him: Hello people! Yes I did go to Worlds of Fun, so here is my review on it! (They made me say that, it’s really just the story of the time that I went there)
One day when I was at my grandma’s house with my sister and two cousins in the summer, (2008) we asked her to take us to Worlds of Fun! And she said yes! So we went there at 10:00 and had some fun! Since it was last year, I can’t remember it clearly, but I’ll do my best.
So there we were, arguing over which ride to ride first, when we realized that my sister, Lyla was too short to ride the Patriot so we couldn’t ride it because it wouldn’t be fair. So, instead, we rode the Zulu! It was really fun! First, we got in (me and my cousin Eli had to share a cage-thingy) then, we asked where the seatbelts were, and the guy said that there weren’t any. That’s when we got kind of scared. But that’s when it started spinning and Newton’s second law made us go horizontal. Weee! And that is my report on the Zulu.
Then, after that, we rode a bunch of rides that I can’t remember. But they all led up to the Mamba! Since it was my first time to Worlds of Fun, I hadn’t ridden it yet. But when I did, it was super fun! So we rode it again! But after that my sister wanted to ride “Fury of the Nile”. So, we rode it! Then again! But after that grandma wanted to go to the bathroom, so she told us to wait for her by a specific bench after we rode it a third time.
So we got out there after riding it again, and waited for her, and waited, and waited. But she wasn’t there. So Eli and me went looking for her while the girls stayed by the bench in case she came back. We had nothing but a map, a water bottle, and our brains. We searched all of the way up to the front and all of the way back. We didn’t find her until we got back, where she was standing there with the girls. We asked her where she had been and she said that she had thought we were meeting at the OTHER bench. So she was waiting for us there when we were waiting for her here. After that we had to go home because it was getting dark. But in all, I was satisfied. The end!
P.S. In case you didn’t notice, Lyla is Conner’s sister and their cousins are Eli and Amara. Eli’s sister is Amara. Conner is friends with Eli and Lyla, Lyla is friends with Conner, Eli and Amara, Eli is friends with Conner and Lyla, and Amara is friends with Lyla. But Conner is best friends with Eli, and Lyla is best friends with Amara.
So there you have it! What this kid did on his (and his sister’s) first time to worlds of fun! One last thing, by the way, he wants to thank his grandma for taking him to Worlds of Fun that day!

What animals would say
Narrator: Hello people! My name is: The Narrator! I like to narrate! But let’s get to the story. This is the story of the animals in a zoo, what they think of us, and what they do.
Wolf spider: (Spinning a web) Look at those humans, they don’t know anything. They use trees to build their houses!
Black widow: Yeah, spider silk is 10 times stronger than STEEL. Why would they use wood?
Wolf spider: And talk about lack of limbs, only 2 legs, and 2 over-sized mandibles that they use to pick things up.
Tarantula: And we are so much stronger than them, it’s a wonder that they even survived long enough to invent tools.
Narrator: So, the spiders went on and on about how much better they are than us. But now let’s get moving on to the reptiles.
Snake: We rock compared to those humans.
Alligator: Their silly pink hides don’t protect them squat.
Lizard: (Flicks tail) Unlike our scaly armor.
Snake: (Showing fangs) And their teeth are so, flat, unlike my fangs.
Narrator: And again, they went on about how we stink compared to them. But now let’s hear what the birds have to say about us.
Flamingo: Those humans don’t know anything about fashion!
Parrott: Squawk squawk!
Peacock: Shut up you! No one knows what you’re saying!
Flamingo: Like I was saying, white, brown, and black are not even colors according to me!
| Pg 2 |
Peacock: If you want to see colors look at this! (The peacock opens her feathers)
Flamingo/Parrott: Ooooooooo. /Squaaaaaaaawk.
Peacock: Yeah, if the humans could do that, then maybe they could be pretty too.
Duck: Hey guys, what’s up?
Flamingo: We’re naming all of the ways we are better than humans!
Duck: Cool! But did you get the most important one?
Peacock: We were just getting to that!
Flamingo: Humans.
Peacock: Can’t.
Flamingo/Peacock/Duck/Parrott: Fly! /Squawk!
Narrator: (Sniff, sniff) They didn’t have to mention that last one! (Sniff) Just move on to the fishies!
Fish#1: I don’t care what that narrator says, swimming is sooooooo much better than flying.
Fish#2: Yeah, as long as you have gills, swimming is better than walking and flying put together
Fish#1: It’s just like flying except for…
Fish#2: it’s effortless,
Fish#1: if you stop trying you don’t plummet to your doom,
Fish#2: and the only downside is sharks!
Shark: Oh really, I don’t think sharks are a downside, in fact, I don’t think there is any downside at all!
Fish#1: What about fishermen?
Shark: Oh. Hey, wait a minute. You’re just trying to stall me until you see an opportunity to escape!
| Pg 3 |
Fish#1: (slowly backing away) No we’re not… Fish#2, get him! (Pushing him towards the shark)
Fish#2: Aaaaaaaaaaah!
Shark: (tackling him) Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Narrator: Well… um, that was weird. But now we can get to the good part!
Monkey#1: Those humans have it made!
Monkey#2: What do you mean?
Monkey#1: Air conditioning, cars, tree houses, super markets, chess, they get it all!
Monkey#2: What about the guilt from global warming?
Monkey#1: They feel no guilt from global warming!
Monkey#2: Well, we should do something about that!
Monkey#1: What can we do?
Monkey#2: We can join up with the other zoo animals and take over the humans! Mwa, ha ha ha haaaaaaa!
Monkey#1: Okay, sure! Why not?
Monkey#2: Let’s start with that annoying narrator!
Monkey#1: Yeah!
Narrator: Hey, wait a minute! You can’t do this! I’m not even supposed to exist! This defies the laws of physics! Nooooooooooooo!
Monkey#1/Narrator: Aaaaah, I can finally hear myself think without that annoying narrator talking all the time! And now I’m the new narrator!
Monkey#2: Good! Now go, go up that big escalator made of light and narrate the rest of this story!
Monkeyarrator: (mon-key-air-or-ate-or): Ok!
Monkey: Now, to take over the word!
| Pg 4 |
(Much later)
Monkey: Fellow zoo animals, we have been pushed around by the humans for far too long! They enslave us, they eat some of us and they feed us little pellets that taste like sawdust! And yes some of us get raw meat or treats or vegetables, but it is tampered with and has lots of unnatural things in it! So I think that we should rile up against the humans and restore the natural order!
Everyone: Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Monkey: Okay! Birds, you circle the globe and free any animal in captivity! Then I want any animal that can go as fast as 70 mph to go and find some wild allies and tell them what I am saying right now, and then everyone else can help the fish get to the sewer.
Everyone: Horaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Narrator: (who is also a monkey): And so they did this plan and it worked, but soon after the humans got out the heavy artillery and reminded the animals how they got stuck in the zoo in the first place, so everything went back to the way it was! THE END!

This is the story of a chess game, a chess game that changed Mr. Pawn’s life forever. So one day, Mr. Pawn was sitting on his board hot in the middle of a chess game, when suddenly the black queen came and killed his wife: Mrs.Pawn. Oh, he was angry then, but what could he do, he was just a pawn. Then suddenly the castle charged the black queen! But wait, he could only move in a strait line! So he missed and took out a black pawn instead. Then, a black bishop came and took out his son: Pawn Jr.! Now he knew that he had to do something! So he asked the king if he could go after the Black King. So the king told him that he could help the most by being a decoy, because that’s what pawns do. But he wanted to do more. So, he took matters into his own hands. And he went into battle! But then Mr. Pawn got hit by a castle and died a gruesome death. So remember kids, the moral of this story is that Mr. Pawn was a pawn and pawns don’t fight, they just stand there and be decoys. THE END! (Just kidding!) Mr. Pawn sidestepped at the last second and did not die a gruesome death like I said. But the battle was intense and Mr. Pawn did not know if he could make it all the way to the Black King. So he thought and thought and thought and thought and finally he had an idea, Suddenly Mr. Pawn turned invisible! (You can do that in a fictional story like
this) so then he calmly walked over to the Black King and took him out, and of course he triumphantly said CHECKMATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then he went back over to his team and was greeted with enthusiastic cheers. So finally he
went to the other team’s dungeon and brought back his wife and kid! THE END! (For real)
Epilogue: after he saved his family Mr. Pawn became rich because he sold his
billions of thank-you cards. So, for the rest of his life he and his family lived a
life of luxury and pamper! THE END! (Seriously this time)
Hello, my name is Conner. I enjoy science experiments. I am very interested in science. I have a rocket that runs on the force of vinegar and baking soda. And I also have an actual rocket that is about 10” and can go really high. It is fun to launch. My room is completely dedicated to space. It is painted dark blue and has glow-in-the-dark star stickers on the walls. I also have glow-in-the-dark planets hanging from my ceiling. Even though my name is Conner, some of my friends call me Yale, or Columbia. I don’t think that those nicknames are necessary though. But it shows that my colleuges think that I’m smart.
