How to Make an Ice Cream Sundae

Ice cream sundaes are easy to make. First get ice cream, toppings, and any other thing that you might want to have on your ice cream sundae. Next , get a bowl for the ice cream. Put the ice cream and toppings in the bowl.  Whipped cream and sprinkles are yummy toppings.  Last, get a spoon and eat the ice cream sundae for dessert.

Rabbits

Rabbits are amazing animals. They have vast ears, snub, puffy tails, and they have long legs for hopping. Bunnies are found all over the world, but not in Antarctica and the islands of Southeast Asia. Rabbits are a little bit smaller than hares because hares have taller ears rabbits. I love rabbits because they are so graceful.

Go Fish!

At our school, we had a great play.The name of our  play was Go Fish.We had to make masks in art for the play. At the play, we sang five songs!  One song was called "There's a Commotion in the Ocean".  Our parents came to the play.  Our moms and dads videotaped us.  We had scarves for our last song.  The last song was called "Colors of the Sea".   The second song was the best.  It was a rap song about sharks.  We had special speaking parts.  We had to do movements. The play was awesome!

Gems

Gems  are breathtaking by how they look. Masterpiece gems are mostly found inside other rocks. They are made into jewelry. Most of the gems are found under the ground.  Sometimes they look like stones. Emeralds are polished to look like dark green. Topaz is a light yellow gem and a hard one. A white topaz was put into  a king's crown. The  white topaz looks like a diamond.  Rubies come from the same minerals as sapphires. Minerals make dazzling crystals. The topaz is a wonderful birthstone of November. We like gems because they are lovely.
