River's Eye
by EvaKay
I sit beside my river's eye
and try to fly
but every time I sit
I sigh and cry
and I try to fly again.
Elevator Quick Write
by Alexyz
I was riding on an elevator when...
It suddenly got stuck and the
lights went off, but I had a flashlight so I wasn't scared. As I waited for 1
hour, I started to see ghosts and monsters in the elevator. An hour later, the
elevator turned back on and went up. I was still seeing things and thought a
Dinosaur was chasing me. When I got out, I ran out...
Elevator Quick Write
by Bethany
I was riding in an elevator when...
All of the sudden, it stopped. I freaked and my mom said,
"It's probably just like the one at Tyler Tech, and it stops at the
end."
"But we are at the top. I said. We
are stuck."
"At least I have snacks."
"Really how could you think of
eating at a time like this."
"Don't worry, we are gonna get out."
"Don't worry, Don't worry, How could
I not worry. We're stuck in an elevator!"

World War II Normandy
By Jacob
Preparing for the invasion of the beaches
at Normandy.
During world war II the Allies put
together a campaign to trick the enemy troops into thinking that they where
going to Pas de Calais. They used inflatable vehicles to deceive photo
recognizance. They also used a tool to make the tank tracks and transmitted
fake troop and supply movements. The Alli troops also led the Germans to believe
that Norway and other locations were were potential invasion targets.
Weather delay in the beach invasion.
General Eisenhower chose the date of June
5, 1944 to invade the beaches of Normandy, but a storm hit and the invasion was
delayed for 24 hours. When General Eisenhower gave the orders to invade the
beaches he told the troops, “You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade,
toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon
you.” The campaign consisted of 5,000 ships carrying troops and supplies and
11,000 aircraft.
Storming the beach.
Early in the morning of June 6th thousands of paratroopers took over
bridges and exit roads. The allies took over several beaches prior to the
landing at Normandy. US forces faced heavy defenses at Omaha Beach. Over 2,000
Americans lost their lives at that beach. Around 4,000 allied troops died
that day. The Germans were confused
still thinking there was going to be an invasion at Pas de Calais. The German
Commander Rommel was away on leave and Hitler refused to send help. By the end
of June allied forces had marched across much of France.
Victory in Normandy.
Late August of 1944 the allied troops
liberated Paris which prevented Hitler from sending more troops to France. In
May of 1945 The allies accepted Nazi Germany Surrender and claimed Victory over
the German troops.
