A Made Up Legend And A Poem

The Guardians of The Misty Island
 One day long long ago a fodragobear ( a mix between a fox a dragon and a bear ) was walking along in its forest habitat when it saw a group of geese flying east.It asked the geese where they were heading. The geese honked back a reply " to the Misty island. " " wheres that ?" asked the fodragobear. " in Sweden. Some men who lived there give us food to stack up for the flight south in the fall." Honked the geese. " bye now HONK!!"and with that the geese flew away east ( they were in Scotland ). The Misty Island, Sweden sounded like a good place . So the fodragobear flew away east with his dragon wings . On his way to the misty island he saw many Scottish people . As he flew overhead the Scottish they yelled " A'ch the'r go's th' fod'agobea'Aye'!" When the fodragobear came across Loch Ness he hailed his friend, The Loch Ness monster or Nessie' fe'r short. " whe' yo' be ahe'din' ?" asked Nessie'. " ta Sweden !" replied the fodragobear. And with that he flew off to Sweden. When he got to Norway he knew he was almost there . He saw the vikings preparing to raid the English coast. When he at last made it to Sweden , he landed . When he found an elk he asked it where the misty island was. The elk said it was a bit farther north . The fodragobear flew there and found the Misty island. When he Landed close to the human village he saw the geese getting fed. 
But when the humans saw the fodragobear the ran back inside their huts to get armed. The fodragobear  
tried to tell them he just wanted food but the humans can't understand fodragobearian. Most of the humans charged him but one named Gustav Goldbeard jumped on the fodragobear back and flew off with him into the sun. Gustav Goldbeard  was a Man with a Battle axe , a blonde beard and mustache. He had a iron cap on and was wearing brown cloth kilt and shirt. He had chain mail under his kilt and shirt. Gustav Goldbeard quickly befriended the fodragobear calling him krigare which means warrior in Swedish. They came back to the misty Island and quickly became famous . They protected the misty Island from invaders.
That is how they became known as the guardians of  the Misty Island.  

A Poem 
Poem 1
sea and wind against the Scottish shore
Sea a'n wi'n againts th' scottish sho'e

The raging wind and the sly water
 fiercely fight the rocky coast. The
 coast will die , But now it stands
 firm and strong at the most. They
fight in the laughing moonlight of day.

Poem 2 
The Swedish Battle.

In the Singing sun of
a new day. Armies
advance. Then all in
one they cry their 
battle cry. The armies
thunder across the 
forest . The axes 
and swords swinging 
up and down. the
raging battle goes 
on till Night swallows
it up. The battle
ends by the traces
of the moonlight.

Recent books I have read

the books I have recently read are:

The Hobbit:
By : J.R.R Tolkien

About: This book is about a hobbit 
named Bilbo Baggins going on an 
adventure with some Dwarves and a 
wizard named Gandalf . The set out
to get their ( in case of the Dwarves ) 
treasure from a dragon named Smaug 
that lived on the lonely mountain. Smaug
had taken the mountain a long time ago and
killed most of the Dwarves living there. 
He chased the others away and took 
their treasure for himself. Thorin the 
heir to the throne of the mountain had
 escaped with a few others that were not
 in the mountain at the time. Bilbo travelled
with Thorin and his company of Dwarves to
 take the mountain back. They encountered many 
dangers like goblins and spiders , but at last they
made it to the mountain. but they could not 
figure out how to kill the loathsome dragon . 
I will not tell you how it ends.

Why I Liked It :
I like fantasy and J.R.R Tolkien's work.

The Missing Series 6 books will have 8:

By : Haddix 

About: This series is about a bunch of adopted 
kids finding out that they were actually famous
missing people from history . They have to go 
back in time and make time go the way it should.
But the missing people were taken out of history 
because they were going to be killed ! Can they 
find a way to restore time and stay alive !

Why I Liked It :
I liked it because they go back in time in history 
and I like history 


Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's library :
By :Chris Grabenstein
 
About: This book is about 12 kids that are invited 
to stay in the new public library for a night before
it even opened!They find out that Mr. Lemoncello 
the most famous game maker ( in this book ) will 
be hosting it. But when they wake up they find out 
that they are playing a game . Whoever wins this
game would become world famous and rich , rich.
They would star in Mr. Lemoncello's commercials.
The game was to get out of the library first . The 
kids split up into to teams . Eventually one team 
becomes solo . Charles Chillington . He competes
with team Kyle Keely . I will not tell you who wins

Why I Liked It :
It had many puzzles in it.

Permutations

Permutations
 

Permutations is a way to change , switch or flip patterns. Like this:

 I will switch the letters as much as I can.

hat
hta
tah
tha
aht
ath

with three 3 letter words there are six Permutations.
The math is like this: 3 x 2 x 1 = 6. That's how many
 words there will be . here is a table :

1 letter words = 1 x 1=1 ( i.e. a ) |  2 letter words = 2 x 1=2 ( i.e. hi,ih )
3 letter words = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6 ( i.e. fun , fnu, nfu ,nuf ,ufn ,unf )
4 letter words = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24  | ( it explodes here ) 5 letter words = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120
6 letter words = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 720 |( and here ) 7 LT WD = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1= 5040
8 letter words = 8 x 7 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 40320 | 9 letter words = 9! ( in math that's how you write Permutations ) 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 362,880  | 10! = 362,8800

Permutations are not only for words you could do it for numbers and icons too.
Like this:

768
786
678
687
876
867

! @ &
! & @
@ ! &
@ & !
& ! @
& @ !


that's it for  Permutations = 479001600 words ( if i wrote down all the Permutations of Permutations it would take me 15 years at the speed of one per second ! )

Nitrogen Cycle

Nitrogen is a gas . It makes up 71%
of the gases in the atmosphere!
It helps us by keeping living things
 alive so we can eat them ! Here
is how nitrogen dose it. It is called
the nitrogen cycle . First the
nitrogen falls with rain or snow.
Then goes into the dirt and mud.
Bacteria that are on plants make
 this nitrogen edible for the plants.
The nitrogen is turned into compounds.
Then the the plants use it. Animals eat it .
When the animals die the nitrogen goes
 back to the earth . Where it turns into
food for the Plants. Some nitrogen compounds
don't get used because another bacteria takes
them and makes them plain nitrogen. This
nitrogen Then goes back into the atmosphere
to fall down in rain or snow again. This cycle
keeps animals and plants alive so we can eat
them . That is the nitrogen cycle.

Wind

Wind
Wind is moving air. Here is how it happens:
Wind is caused by the sun . The Sun heats the earth
and the warm air rises. Colder air fills the gap while
the warm air is cooling down . This makes a lot of
moving air which is wind! There are many types of
winds like Jet streams ( are fast moving streams of air
that move in circles around the earth ) , Constant winds
( Winds that are constant . The warm air moves toward
the poles and cools off ) and trade winds ( these winds
move toward the equator. ) 

Wind Energy
Pepole have been using wind as a power source for
ages. The first windmills were in Persia. they were
used for grinding wheat . These don't look like the
European windmills but they looked like eggbeaters.
The modern ones are not for grinding wheat but are
for making electricity. The wind turns the windmill
and a generator makes the movement into electricity.
In wind farm you can see lots of windmills.


Wind Storms
There are many storms made 
by wind like hurricanes and tornadoes 
  
Hurricanes
Are Storms made over hot water . The Hot water heats
the air . Then cold air fills the gap making a small storm
gather over the hot water. The storm grows in power as
it is moving over the hot water and winds fly over it .
When the winds are faster then 73 miles per hour it is a
Hurricane.

5 Over 157 mph
_|____________
4 130-156 mph
_|___________
3 111-129 mph
_|___________
2 96-110 mph
_|___________
1 74-95 mph


Hurricanes can do a lot of damage . When they hit land
they lat out their water as rain and have high winds.
Tornadoes  
Are fast winds in a whirling column .
They come out of thunderstorms . Th
ey can be very destructive . Tornadoes
are measured by something called the
Fujita scale

F0 | weak
F1 | medium
F2 | stronger
F3 | bad
F4 | destructive
F5 | Greatly destroying

The youngest Templar.

The youngest Templar is a series I have been reading . It has three books .I have read 2 of them and am reading the third on page 103 .The author is called Michael P. Spradlin.

The book is about a orphan called Tristan who became a squire of a Templar knight called Sir Thomas. When he and the other Templar knight and squires were about to get killed by a army of Saladin's men, Sir Thomas gives him the holy grail and tells him to bring it to a monk in Scotland. On his way there he meets friends that accompany him on his journey. He is pursued by a evil Templar knight called Sir Hugh.

Sir Hugh wants the grail for himself. They encounter many hardships along the way .So far they are in the middle of England heading north to Scotland. Richard the Lionheart's mother said that Tristan
had claims to the throne.

The book has its version of Robin Hood in it with an archer called Robard Hode.

The Book is placed in the time of the crusades.

The Templars were a group of knights fighting for Jerusalem but they were loyal to the pope not to the king. They also believed artifacts such as the holy grail would help them win. In the end though Saladin wins as we know from history.

The Ozone layer

 Ozone is a gas with molecules

that are made out of 3 oxygen

atoms. The Oxygen that  we

 breath has 2. The Ozone layer

protects us from the suns radiation.

It is in the Stratosphere. There is

a holes in the Ozone layer over the

poles. The hole was made by Ozone

destroying chemicals. These chemicals

were in house items. The chemicals

take 2 or 3 years to get to the Stratosphere.

But when they get there they thin the Ozone.

Countries around the world decided to stop

using the Ozone destroying chemicals .

The hole will heal itself in 50 years or so if

 most people stop using ozone destroying

chemicals

Earth and the atmosphere

Earth
Is the only know planet that has life. Why ? Here is your answer.
We are not to far away or to close to the sun ,making temperature
just right to live in. The atmosphere also helps . It traps the suns
 heat rays but deflects ray that could hurt us. The atmosphere is made
 up of gases that include oxygen and nitrogen . Many living things
need oxygen to survive including us :). There are 5 layers of the atmosphere
 (the higher you go the thinner the air gets)  they are :


The Exosphere_________________________________________
Is the highest and thinnest layer                                                                                                        

The Thermosphere   _____________________________________
Is the hottest layer. There is very thin air here to .

The Mesosphere ________________________________________
Here is where most meteors get dissolved. This is the coldest layer.

The Stratosphere________________________________________
The Ozone layer is here.

The Troposphere________________________________________
This is the lowest layer . This is also called the weather layer.
--/\______________/\____/\_______________|


Another thing that helps life on earth is the water. 71% of the earth is water. All living things need water to survive . Earth is the 5th largest planet in the Solar system making its gravitational pull not to strong or to weak. Earth also has a magnetic field because of the core. Scientist think that the magnetic field defends us from harmful rays.

Plate Tectonics

Scientists believe that millions of years ago all the continents were one big continent called a Pangaea .
Why do they think this? Because They found the same fossils of one species all over the world .
But the tectonic plates that the continents were on shifted moving the continents to where they are today.
The crust of the earth has many plates that move around on the mantle about 1 or two inches every year.
On the boundaries between the plates lots of stuff happen like volcanoes , mountains and trenches . The plates can do many stuff at the boundaries .Like


Divergent bounds
are plates boundaries where plates move apart .
Molten rock comes up and cools making more plate.

Convergent  bounds 
The plates along the boundaries move toward each other .
Sometimes one plate can move under the other.


Transform bounds
are where two plates move horizontally against each other

Me and my family watched the Croods recently and it had a lot plate movement in it .

Inside the Earth

The earth has three main parts. The crust the Mantle and the Core

Crust
The crust is the part of the earth we live on .

We can only see the upper part of the crust,

the lower part of the crust is solid rock . 

Mantle
The Mantle is the biggest part of the earth.

The upper mantle is sort of liquid-solid mixture

like hot clay. This lets the plates move and

make earthquakes. The lower mantle is a hot

solid mixture of Iron , Oxygen and other metals

and rocks. Both layers have these things in them.


Core
The core is the center of the earth . The outer

core is hot liquid molten metals . The inner core

is solid from all the pressure of the other layers.

It is made up of iron and metals.


Before the 1900's - 2000's there were many myths
of what was in the earth.

Comets

Comets are made up of gas dust and ice .

They are in the Oort cloud and the Asteroid belt.

You rarely see a comet in your  life.

When a comet gets close to the sun the ice

start melting. Making a tail or coma around

the ball or nucleus . Sometimes comets smash

into planets or get burned by the sun. One well

know comet is Halley's comet which last came in

2003 and will come again  around 2061. I will be able

to see it ! Halley's comet is named after Edmund Halley

who found the orbit of the comet.  Comets orbit the sun.

They Come close to  it ( that is when we see them )

Then travel far far away like to the Oort cloud .

water


Water
Two Hydrogen atoms plus one Oxygen atom = water  H2O
water is a good solvent which means  it is good at dissolving 
things . Hard water has some minerals and metals in it and 
soft water has very little minerals and metals in it. Every living
thing on earth has needs water to live. 

Water  cycle
The water cycle is a cycle in which water goes through . it is like this

    
                          
snow melts
from the
mountains         (  )and Rains
    / \                   |  |               then the water evaporates and turns into clouds
  /----\   ________|________  ______________
/         \  ________________ \|                             |
            and turns into a river \                               |
                                               |                              |
                                               |                              |
                                               |_______________|
                                                 that empty's into the ocean
The water cycle was on from the time of the dinosaurs . So you might be drinking the same water the Dinosaurs drank !

Water Pollution
Is waste and other bad stuff that goes on water. Water can usually take care of pollution in three ways

Dissolving
In this method the water dissolves the pollution.

Dispersing
In this method the water Spreads out the pollution so no one area will get affected badly

Recycling  
In this method the water recycles or makes the pollution food for other organisms

The water can get polluted in lots of ways like sewage waste or factory waste
When the water gets polluted there is no Oxygen for the living things in the water.
When the living things die other micro living things that don't need Oxygen come
in and make bad smelling gases .


Floods
Floods are a natural disaster that happens when land gets more water than it can absorb.
Lakes ,rivers and rain can make floods. Big waves made by earthquakes can also make floods.
Floods can do a lot of destruction like washing away houses and drowning people. People can stop floods with dikes , levees and dams.
