Ferns


Ferns are a type of plants. There are ferns off all types and different sizes, for example: some are little and others are tall and resemble a palm tree. Most of them are green and have large leaves. They have little growth and are primitive. They are old type of plants and exist from time of the dinosaurs and live through all alteration of climate.
Ferns reproduce through spores, which are a type of egg, produced by some plants. They are brown or yellow and are black when mature.When some animal passes by a fern or the wind blows on it, and throw the spores on the ground and differents spores join another plant is created. That way spores help ferns do the reproduction.

Ferns

Ferns are a type of plant, but they are a little diferent.They have a type of seed on their leaves called spores. Spores are tiny, and their color is yellow, and sometimes, brown. Their root can absorve water and minerals.
Ferns are important, because of the planet. Ferns can create oxygen, and, like other leaves, they can do photosyntesis. Photosyntesis is important for the plants, because plants create food with photosyntesis.

Plants

Plants have six parts: stem, leaf, root, flower, seed, and fruit. The stem and the root support the plant. The leaf is on the stem. The leaf has several layers, and the sun shines on top of it.

Leaves have a large surface area, so they absorb light rays. When they absorb light rays, they make photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is important to plants because they make their own food through it.

Yesterday

Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe
In yesterday
Suddenly
I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday
Came suddenly
Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday
Yesterday
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe
In yesterday
Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday
Yesterday
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe
In yesterday
(hum to "I believe in yesterday")

Notre Dame

The cathedral Notre Dame in Paris is a magnificent construction. There are a lot of tourists and worshippers. Notre Dame has several statues and very well preserved images of Jesus. The people go to Notre Dame to pray and visit. It's huge, like a castle, and gray with several little monsters made of stone. Around are a lot of stores and in front is a big square. The windows are colorful in this cathedral. I liked it very much.

On my vacation I went to Walt Disney World! There I went to many rides, one is Space Mountain! Space Mountain is verry cool and it's dark inside. When the mountain starts come many beautiful colors flashing in your eyes, then you go up and see people under and you see four big astronauts next to you and then you go down very fast, and the fun mountain continue ...

I like it because it´s fun !!!! =]
