  1. The article I read was "A Miracle at the Mine", it was about people finding miners who have been trapped since August 5th. The miners were aged from 19 to 63 years old. I think it is awesome that they survived.

  9. “ A Miracle at the Mine”




    Tears of relief and shouts of joy rang out at the San Jose mine in northern Chile as 33 miners were lifted from freedom, one by one. The men, ranging from 19 to 63 years old, have been buried alive since a cave in the cooper and gold mine they where working collapsed on August 5. It is the longest time anyone has ever survived being trapped underground.

  10. “A Chat with David Wiener”






    Look at the three-time Caldecott Medal winner David Wiener, and you’ll see that books don’t always need words. You may know Wiener for his wordless books, including Flotsam, Tuesday and Sector 7. He has also written books that have words, such as The Loathsome Dragon and Hurricane.

  11. “ The Case of The Missing Bees”
    The article is about bees that disappear. The scientists found out why. It is because the bees catch a virus from fungus. Our population of honeybees has gone down from 20% to 40%. The bees can survive the virus alone, but not the fungus and the virus. This story is pretty good. You should read it too. Kyla
