Meet the Navigators


Hi my name is Brooke!  I am 9 years old.  I have a dog named       Joey.  My teacher is Mrs. Conwell.  My favorite colors are pink and purple.  I have a brother named Blake.  Junie B. Jones is my favorite book. Strawberries are my favorite food.  If I were an explorer I think that I would be a good leader, because I am good at working with others.

HI MY NAME IS CHARLIE.  I AM IN THIRD GRADE.  I AM 10 YEARS OLD.  I HAVE A DOG NAMED KRICKET.  HE IS A CHUIAUA.  I HAVE A SISTER AND TWO BROTHERS.  I LIKE MATH.

Hi!  My name is Clayton. I have one brother, and one sister. I have one dog named Jessie.  I think I 'm good at soccer, and baseball. My favorite subject is science.  I loved learning about Lewis's dog Seaman.  If I were on the expedition I think I would be good at land travel. Others think I would be good at it because they think I am brave.

Hi my name is Nick.  I am 9 years old and in third grade.  I am in Mrs. Conwell's class.  I have two dogs and two cats.  My favorite dog is Pandora.  My favorite cat is Kricket.  He is my favorite cat because he never bothers me.  He is usually sleeping or hiding.  Pandora always jumps on me and iicks my face.  I like to read.  My favorite book is How to Eat Fried Worms.  My favorite season is summer because it is sunny and I like to go swimming.  A quality I have that would make me a good explorer is that I am brave and a very hard-worker.  This would have been important on the expedition.

Hi my name is Valerie.  I love animals.  I have five dogs.  I am 9 years old and in third grade.   I like school.  I really like to read and learn new things in school.  I think a quality I have that would make me a good explorer is that I am good at listening and following directions.
