  19. What were the 7 ways to start a sentence?

    Noun
    Infinitive Phrase
    Participle Phrase
    Prepositional Phrase
    Transitional Phrase

  22. Hi heres my 5th chapter please comment:)

    Chapter 5/ Scrap?

    When Lisa and Kurter arrived back at their guns they picked them up and hauled them to the front of scraps entrance it was a nice silvery blue but there was no time to admire the underground structure they had to get this done quick. Kurter asked around and they all told him to go the same way which led to nowhere then he saw it, It was a perfect purple door shoved to one corner. Kurter and his mom stormed in. Scrap was big, tall, purlple and yellow he almost looked like a big dinosaur with bombs that come out of his back, it was pretty crazy.
    “Hello please allow me to Introduce myself my name is Lisa and my son right here is Kurter.”
    “Yes, what do you want?”
    “As you probably already know is that America’s at war with China and we need some of your troops to join us if that’s possible?”
    “Hmmmm..... it does seem pretty serious, Scrapper put together an army for these mortals”
    “Sure thing boss”
    “Mortals take this it’s a radio you can tune in and see what’s happening so you know what to target next, oh and don’t fail us”
    “Yes Scrap, we will win (and get back my husband)”
    “Boss ready to go”
    “Good”
    “Let’s go” Kurter said
    “ We are camped up close to the top of the mountain” Lisa explained while walking up a steep slope to the entrance of their camp.
    Scrapper said “First thing we should do is probably put together a plan, right?”
    “Right”
    “If we take out one of their major facilities then we can take out the heart”
    “Huuhhh.... we could take out the reeducation camps, that would cause alot of trouble.” Lisa said
    “Perfect Idea, let’s tune into the radio and listen to what’s happening out there”
    Radio: “Tonight is a beautiful night with a high of 28 and a low of 17, now lets get back to the war, right now the education camps seem to be the only thing holding the Chineses high but if America can take out the education camp all they need to do is target the heart then Californias back to it’s normal state.”
    “That's it for tonight folks tune in next time on CNN.”
    “Now for a Chinese broadcast.”
    “Tomorrow morning we will head down to the city and attack the education camp, now here's the plan Lisa and Kurter you will flank right and take out the god Lakitu, you guys fine with that?”
    “Yep we're cool” Kurter responded
    “Ok now me and my group will break in through the entrance and save the prisoners and cover you guys”
    “Wish yall luck now lets get back to sleep” Lisa exclaimed

  25. Hi Mr. Buxton!! It's Bekah. I just wanted to tell you that school its going fine, and our International day is coming up next week. My country is Turkey which is quite an interesting country. Finally, i was seeing what books you were reading and saw that your read aloud was among the hidden. The author of that book came last week to visit school and some students ate lunch with her. She explained her books to us and talked some about that series. So just wanted to say hi!!
