Hi! The Marshmellow Challege was REALLY fun!!!! I definatley learnt more about teamwork, and the difference beteween teamwork and groupwork.
The Marshmallow Challenge was very fun and educational. Miguel
Hi everyone! I really loved the Marshmallow Challenge and I definitely learned more about teamwork than I knew before. I was wondering about what "so sticky that they (lines) jump off the page meant. Thanks!!!
it basically means that the words stick to you, "like a squashed marshmallow" - they bring so many vivid descriptive ideas that you can hear, see, feel the place you are writing about.
How are those books going?
Hi. I'm enjoying my days in fifth grade. The marshmello chalange was a very good way to way to work on our teamwork. See you tomorrow.
Hi Mr. Buxton,
Thank you for your reply. I was just working on the book covers and I have 16 so far. Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.
i had a great day today. :-) Beatrice
Um, for the final draft, when I wrote wrinkles in time, and spirits giving dreams, it's not the actual title of the book,but should that still be considered to be a proper noun?
I loved the marshmallow challenge. It really was a challenge. I learned that without teamwork, some things just cannot be done!
Does My Life sound weird to any of you? (For the final draft)
What font size should i use for the poem.
Mr Buxton, Is it alright if I don't write the title first?
Hope you guys all liked the marshmallow challenge! Last year, the team who won just stuck their marshmallow on top of a couple of pasta noodles. The won because everyone else's fell over, except on group's, which started bending, and then became shorter.
P.S. Hi Mr. Buxton!
Hello the marshmellow challenge was hard yet fun! See you tomorrow

I originated from, Anita and Freddy
I come from, Phroza and Percy
From Komlash and Soley
Let’s not forget Thompson
I come from Mr Buxton and Mr Woody
I’m supported by two Rohans and a Kenny
Not to mention Coach Shaw
In these people, I find, not a single flaw
From Taj Mahal and Queen’s Necklace
I’m from great Mt Kanchenjunga and cold Himalayas
I’m from Gate Way of India and Matharan
Wait I forgot Elephant Caves
My land stretches from cold mountain peaksS
Acutally, there are 7 billion people on Earth...

Wait I forgot Elephant Caves
My land stretches from cold mountain peaks
To low precipitation and hot desert heats
From east to west it’s forest by the sea
On the coast it’s watching sunset by the sea
I live for scoring a goal with Messi
I’m inspired by Dani Alves making those crosses
I run with Usain, over ten meters per second
I’m with the legendary midfielder, David Become
I come from Wane Rooney, a bicycle kick
From Andre Santos a perfect tackle
And Fabienski, another ball saved
Barcelona a win every day
