Why Chocolate Fever??


We just finished Chocolate Fever. My favorite part of the story was Henry Green was cured from Chocolate Fever because his skin didn't have big brown spots on it and it was plain. My second favorite part is when wants to eat a lot something else at the end. I think the author wanted me to learn that I should not have too much of something.

Are Those Cumulonimbus Clouds?

This morning it was raining medium. I thought the clouds looked like cumulonimbus clouds that make storms with lightning and thunder. In the summer we went camping in the mountains and it was pouring one night with lightning and thunder. It was scary!!! Those were cumulonimbus clouds. It was hard for me to fall asleep. I felt nervous this morning when I saw the clouds. Mom looked online and we watched a video about the different kinds of clouds.
I looked at a cloud paper and decided the clouds were not cumulonimbus. I thought they might be stratus clouds because they were grey and not so puffy and were smooth. Then, I found out that if there was rain with the clouds then they were nimbostratus and stratus clouds. Here is what the morning looked like and the cloud sheet that helped me know the types of clouds.
