the atmosphere

 The atmosphere


The earth is made up of a lot of things but they are all in these spheres. There are the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and the atmosphere today I’m going to explain the atmosphere. 


There are five layers of the atmosphere the lowest layer is the troposphere this is where we live and where all the weather happens. Up next is the stratosphere there is little clouds here. Now the mesosphere it’s the coldest and the hardest layer and also the layer that meteors burn up in. up next is the thermosphere this is the hottest layer lastly the exosphere it’s 10,000 km thick!!! And its basically outer space.


Now you know the layers of the atmosphere you might be asking what is the atmosphere. The atmosphere is the layers separating the earth from space and it protects us from many sun rays.


Now to know how thick is each layer is let’s start with the furthest away the exosphere it’s 10,000 km thick. Now the thermosphere it’s 600 km thick. Up next is the mesosphere and it’ 50 to 85 km thick. Now the stratosphere it’s 50 km thick lastly the troposphere it’s 14.5 km thick.


In conclusion, the atmosphere protects us from the sun and it keeps us warm and able to breathe.


Glossary

Sun rays: heat from the sun

Separating: keeping two or more thins apart

the volcano eruption

Boom!!! The lava oozes out like melted ice cream out of the volcano slowly. While it heads for the forest below. You can smell the smoke while it covers the night sky like a blanket. Suddenly zap of lightning flashes across the night sky as the stars twinkle behind the grey and orange smoke like glitter next. You can hear the snow sizzle like a steak. Later it turns it into ashes then a light breeze blows the ashes off the volcano. 

Finally the volcano has stopped erupting? as I said in relief.

The race

 

The race



As the crowd roared like lions in the shivering cold trying to stay warm. While the trees gently sway left to right with some autumnal leaves gliding down like a feather.


On the field, the runners leaped over the decaying hurdle. And a massive muddy sloppy footprint engraved mud they left on the moist ground. Running with mud spotted on the vibrant trainers like paint on a wall as it drips down.


The boy runs in the dense mud as he runs as fast as lightning while the furoshes wind crashes on them like waves on rocks. The parents stand in the sloppy mud as a boy runs outside the track trying to keep up with first place.


After a long day of running at the end, they all tried their best even with the rain and the mud and the wind but they were all demand to reach the finish line

How do banks work?

How do banks work?


Do you have a piggy bank? You probably do how else will you keep your money safe when you lose a tooth or when it’s your birthday but when you grow up you will have to open a bank account because your piggy bank won’t be able to fit all of your money and you need to know how to use a big bank account that has a lot of bucks and what the bank does to your money. 



Congratulations you opened your first bank account now you deposit some money into it yay but the banks take a little bit of money each year but don’t worry you actually get more money back this is called interest. Let's say you deposit 150 dollars. There's a reason you got a job to earn money.   



Let’s say for example the bank gives your money to someone else let’s say Bob wants 50 dollars from the bank and the bank takes it from your money but Bob has to pay it back this is called a fee 



But Bob has to pay it back but with a 7 percent interest so the bank gets five per cent and you get two percent so now you have 52 dollars and the bank gets 5 percent so it’s a win-win for you and the bank and you get it every year.



So now you go to your nearest bank and open up a bank account and save you money and don’t worry if you think the bank is going to rob you they have billions of dollars so they won’t stell none of your money now I have to go back trying to rob this bank what do you mean there’s only one dollar in cash were did all the money go “online” nooooo.

The journey to the savage planet
Finally I made it to an unknown planet that can stance life for humans HQ we have found the planet we were looking for,” I told HQ excitedly

Good now explore if there are any dangerous creatures here if there is take this I left a plasma pistol in the glove department stay safe 

As I looked ahead I heard an earth-shaking roar. I ran to my ship to grab the plasma pistol. I said I can do anything and then I heard the roar again then I hid. I walked outside and found a nearby cave system I crawled in trying to be as quiet as possible ooww I fell onto a pack of cans!? Suddenly I heard a sound I hid in the cans waiting for my fate…

Then I saw it… a chicken? But with big eyes, it looked friendly. I walked out of the cans then it attacked the cans? I searched to find an exit finally I found one to reveal plants flourishing creatures living together in harmony I strolled thew admiring all the alien life wondering why our planet wasn’t like this trees everywhere but back home no trees all types of different creatures living together all the way home we only have photos the I saw it a humongous planet-destroying monster it sent a message down it told me we were in trouble the message said all things living on this planet we will take your planet to our ship where we will keep you there for the rest of your life.

the time I traded my sister for two turtles

“Ok mum I won’t trade dad again for anything” I promised  
“Good now go to your bedroom!!!” mum demanded as she's pointing upstairs to my bedroom I could tell she was about to explode. I looked behind her the worst thing ever and I mean ever my Sister as I slowly walked up the stairs she was watching all the way up trying not to laugh mum saw this and talked
And you why would you let you brother do this mum exclaimed
B-butmy sister stuttered  
No butts you to go to bed NOW mum shrieked like a bat while my sister ran to bed with tears dripping down her face like a waterfall.  

As I wondered mum said I cant trade my dad again she didn’t say anything about my sister. I snuck out of my bedroom towards my sisters room. Oh no mums coming upstairs I could hear the stairs squeak. I dashed back to my room trying to look sad as she looked in my room to see if I was ok then walked back downstairs. Attempt number 2 let’s try this again I whispered as soon as I walked out the room the door slammed behind me but worst of all it grabbed the attention of mumattempt 58 last time I thought.

Yes, finally I made it and now time to tie up my sister I snuck up behind her then. Snatch I thought of something quick. I saw a line of rope I tied it to the bed and threw the rest down even if I wanted to go back I can't. I don’t want to think about what mum will do this time just thinking about it made me shiver in fear. As I run to Bill's house to trade his two turtles for one sister finally I made it. As I casually walked back home trying to think of an excuse to mum I was home I tried to open the door as quietly as possible. But I was too late mum was waiting on the couch “where is your sister” mum asked
“I don’t know?” I responded nervously preparing for mum to yell
“Go find her NOW don’t come back home until you do!!!” mum yelled.

Why its good being the youngest brother

Why it’s good being the youngest brother
 I have two older brothers which in my opinion are the best big brothers. And Kain is the oldest and Josh is the middle and now today I’m going to give you some reasons why it's good being the youngest brother. 
The first reason is that they help you with homework and making food only if your brother is old enuff to do it. For example, this one time when my parents went to the supermarket and my brother ordered food for me after they left. Or they can buy you food from different countries if they are travelling and they buy you candy and Coke, Fanta and Sprite that your parents won’t get you.
Another reason is if your board on a rainy day or if you're just bored you can play games with your brothers. like board games and a multiplayer game or you can have turns on a single-player game like Fortnite, cod and a lot of others or you can just watch a movie on Netflix or Disney+ if you have it or you can play in the park with a ball. For example, me and my brothers and my Dad and Mum went to Cornwall park to play with the soccer ball the teams were me, Kain and Mum we were versing, Dad and Josh. Josh and Kain got too competitive with the game. 
Lastly, you get better things and more up to date technology. Like faster phones faster than them at about age six or five and better ones more storage other things you get are gaming consoles like Ps4 or 5 and Xbox1 or series x. My brother buys games that I want and I get them for free with access to his account where I install the games I want or buys me ps+ for my ps4 so I can play with him on online games.
I get all brand new clothes as my brothers are a lot older than me and my parents didn’t keep their old clothes. And I get better-designed clothes and more comfortable than they were before. And also we have better shoes now than we did before.

So now next time you argue with your older brother just think how good you have it today and if you don’t have a big brother instead you a small brother try to be the best big brother you can so he or she can be the best young brother.
