This week I read two books. The first book I read was called "Bees". The second book I read was called "Emperor Penguins". These are some facts I learned about bees. Bees make the buzzing sound by flapping their wings and their wings touch to make the buzzing sound. Bees can be different colors. Some can be red blue or even bright green! Bees live everywhere except the North and South Poles. Bees build homes called nests. Honeybees live in a group called colonies and their homes are called hives. As many as 70,000 bees can live in one hive. That is about as many people as go to the Super Bowl!! Only female bees have a stinger. Worker honey bees sting only once and then die.

A Chinese New Year tradition is putting out fireworks and putting up lanterns. Chinese New Year lasts for about 15 days. This is what me and my family do on Chinese New Year this year. We went to Chinatown and we got toys and we got clothes. The clothes I got was

I went to the Pacific Aquarium on Sunday 1-28-18. I am writing this so you can learn facts about sea animals and birds. The aquarium is in Long Beach. I went with my mom and sister Yanna. The animals I saw were fish, jellyfish, birds, stingray, sharks, sea urchin, sea otter, seals, and sea lions.
