Colin and his first grade friends got to feel how blubber keeps whales warm in cold temperatures! |
Then, I learned that blue whales weigh about 150 tons! Blue whales are my favorite whales because they swallow almost everything.
Next, I learned Orca whales can weigh 12,000 pounds! The orca whale in the book “Sea Life” said “I am an orca whale. Some people call me killer whale.”
Finally, I learned whales eat fish and seals. Leopard seals eat penguins! Penguins eat fish, squid and eels.
Love,
Colin

Dear Colin,
ReplyDeleteI like how you used sequence words, like "first," "next," and "finally" to organize your writing! Where did you learn what penguins eat?

I learned what penguins eat from the video antarctic antics.

Colin,
ReplyDeleteWhales eat seals!?!? Yikes. I had no idea. What did you do during the blubber experiment? What did it feel like?
Mr. Wood
Dear Mr. Wood,
DeleteDuring the blubber experiment I put my hand in the cold water and of course it was cold. Then I put my other hand in the blubber then I put the blubber hand in the water and it felt like nothing.
Sincerely,
Colin
