Dolphins are intelligent sea animals that are mammals. They breathe through the blowhole at the top their head. A dolphin's top speed is 25 miles per hour. They live in groups called schools, and they like to race alongside boats. There are more than 30 species of dolphins. Dolphins communicate by making clicking sounds. To find their prey, dolphins send out pulses. They then listen for reflected pulses to feel what is around them. This way, they are able to track down their prey.

My Diary and Me
I sat on the sidelines, and watched the "star player" of my basketbatll team score. "Woo-hoo!" yelled our coach. Hi, I'm Sarah Wallace. Let me introduce everyone. The "star player" of my team is my twin sister, Courtney. Our coach is my Dad, Micheal Wallace. Courtney and I are fraternal twins. We are in 7th grade, and have totally different personalities. I am a gymnast. Courtney is a basketball player. The only reason I'm here is because my mom, Lillian Wallace, or Lilly for short, says that"I need to do some running." I don't agree with her at all! However, I sneaked my diary in here, so when I'm bored, and "on the bench", which I always will be, I can write in it. Here is today's entry:
Dear Diary,
I'm bored, as usual, at a boring basketball game. I hope this ends soon-wait a second! It's the last 1 minute in the 4th quarter! I better put this away, or Dad will find out!
-Sarah Wallace

The Living Stick
The Living Stick
When I need to concentrate, I imagine a metallic stick. The metallic stick has a human touch. The metallic stick looks like a piece of gym equipment. He kicks a thought I don't need like punting a soccer ball, and puts thoughts that I would need later, into boxes marked with a "Fragile" label. He silently rolls the boxes away. There is a background with clouds, and birds chirping. He closes a black curtain. Now, I have a clear mind.
