As I was taken to my cage in the aliens lair, I saw them take a gigantic creacher into a huge cage, the last thing I saw was an aliens fist coming straight for my face.

It wasn't long ago before Dewy the alien became a hero to his home planet Mars. Our story starts off when Dewy was outside staring at the stars relaxing. Then all of the sudden Dewy heard a CRASH!! He jumped and got up.
Dewy searched around his house and then right infront of him was a big rock. but it wasn't an ordianary rock it was flashing hot pink and kept shaking. Dewy didn't know what to do some part of him wanted to pick it up but the other didn't. The rock started rolling down a hill and Dewy chased after it. The night grew dark and cold and Dewy was still chasing after the rock having no clue where it will land and when it will stop. Soon the rock came to a stop and the hot pink light went out. The night was cold and there were no light and Dewy was far away from his home.

Hi, I am Fred Frizz and I am an A+, weird, science geek. This is one of the weird and wacky adventures of my trip to MARS. I was at my house one day just sitting on the couch watching my favorite TV show Phinius and Ferb. I was wondering if there is a paraless universe that no one has invented or even thought of before.
Sop I went down to my basement ( which was my seceret laboratory ). It took me weeks and maybe month I lost count after 5 days but I figured a way to travel from my basement to MARS. I got there and was greated by a herd of aleins they hudled around me portal like a pack of penguins. They did not speak very clearly but I stayed there for a very long time telling them different thing that the humans do. By the time I was done teaching and telling all the aleins about the stuff we do on earth Then they turned on me. They through me in a cage and in the back corner crying because he was stuck here to was my old friend Scott Little. We made a plan to escape the cage he had been planing the escape for a month now. He had the wall of the cage filed of so that we could jump out and we did then the aleins saw us and starred to shot at us with their ray guns. We ran as fast as we could to where we remebered the portal was. We went to the exact spot and it wasen't there. Sadly we were captured once again.

They set it for a 4035years back and they get in it and pull a switch and when they walk out they see some palm trees and they see green, gras, flowers, tall trees also they see DINOSAURS! They all run out and hide in a cave. Next they see a glow into the cave and see the shape of a large creature glowing up the cave."what is it" shouted one of the kids. "i think it is a dinosaur!!!" shouted another kid. soon the monster was just a few feet away from them. They all see that it is a dinosaur. they slowly try to walk away but the giant monster started to growl at the small crowd. Soon it got louder and louder and the glow became stronger . After a while the giant creature started to walk closer. the children became more and more frightened. The dinosaur soon walked closer. The groan became louder. The monster was about 11 feet tall. the cold cave got colder as the monster came closer...
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" shouted Jimmy (one of the kids). the dino had touched his head and started to pull on his hair. Soon the dino made a sound like it was humming

3 friends in their mid twenties were very fascinated with the moon. They loved studying it just to see what causes the changes of the moon. One night they had a sleepover and one friend mentioned that her Uncle works for NASA. There were ooohs and aaahs when her friends found this out. They all called her Uncle that night to see if there was any chance they could go onto the moon.
Her Uncle answered the phone "Hello?" "Hi Uncle Jon, it's Keira. I was wondering if there was any chance my friends and I could....." She paused. This was one of the hardest questions to ask her Uncle who was insanely overprotective of her. "What's wrong honey?" Was all Uncle Jon said. "Uncle Jon....you know how fascinated my friends and I are of the moon and we were wondering...... is there anyway you could get us a space shuttle to go to the moon so we can fufill our dreams?" He didn't say anything back. All Keira heard was the 'click' when he hung up. He didn't even say goodbye. They all began to cry. They shouldn't have gotten their hopes up was all they could say to themselves. Uncle Jon called 3 months later. "Keira, you're scheduled for takeoff in 3 weeks. I'll meet you girls at 5 am 4 days before takeoff at NASA. I'll teach you the ropes and you girls will be all set." "Thank you so much Uncle Jon. You have no idea how much this means to us." "Anytime kiddo, anytime. See you in a couple weeks. Love you." "Love you too Uncle Jon." All they could do was scream with excitement. This was going to be the thrill of a lifetime!

There once was an alien named Jerry. Jerry lived on Mars with his brother Jim and his mom. Jim and Jerry are twins and they are exactly the same age. 667,334.992,013, 123 years old. Dont even ask how old their mother is. Anyways, Jim and Jerry are both very very lazy. So lazy that htey have not changed their clothes since the age of 3.
People had always made fun of the twins for their lazy ways, but they didnt mind much. People called them things like Lazy Bones, Couch Potatoes, and words that Jim and Jerry didnt een know existed. Jim and Jerry were not urt by these harsh comments, but annoyed. They had to do something and for the first time (since the age of three) Jim and Jerry got up and walked out of their home. Their legs were so thin and they were struggling ot hold up the large masses which resembled their bodies. They finally were no longer couch potatoes!

when i woke up on a really dark and stormy night, the power was out and i couldnt see a thing. I got out of my really cold bed and though that i was going to freeze to death. I walked over to the window to see what was outside. All that i could see was, fallen down trees,and a ice blanked over all that i could see. I went to go and get my mom and dad. i walked in there room and woke them up, they didnt know what it was for because they were to tired.
When my parents finally woke up a little more i told them what i saw outside and that the power was out. They both said "just go back to bed for a little longer then we can all get up." they also said not to wake up my brother. i went back into my bed and fell back to sleep. After about an hour or 2 i woke back up and the power and everything else was still the same. I got right out of bed and got my parents they said " go and wake up your brother" i went into his room and woke him up, he said " why is the power out and why is it really cold" i told him that there is an ice storm. We all went down stairs to look outside and turn the height up. i brought a blanket down to keep warm, we all looked outside and all that we could see was ice. |

I woke up and breathed in the crisp fall air. My heart raced when I remembered what today was, Thanksgiving! I got out of bed and could already taste the juicy turkey. When I walked downstairs into the kitchen I saw my parents getting all of the supplies for the big feast this afternoon. About an hour later we all started cooking the first thing we did was put the turkey in the oven.
Next we started to make our homemade stuffing, at the same time we where setting the table and moving chairs from other rooms to fit all of our reletives. People started showing up at about 12:00am so we all went into the living room to chat for a little while. At about 12:30 the last of the guests showed up so we all sat at the table, ready to eat. the first thing to come out was the turkey. It was the biggest turkey i have ever seen. Once that was on the table all the other little stuff like squash, potatoes, and carotts. We all started to dig in and by no time there wasn't a crumb in sight. After dinner we had some apple pie and then the reletives started to leave. |

He to went over to where the sound came froand foundat first he didn't see anything until he heard the squeak again. He looked to he his right and saw a little green thing. he tried to go near it but his brain just wouldn't funkshion right he couldn't tell his legs to move forward he stood there. HE diecided to go look for some selter because when he wanted to go back to his rocket ship it wasnt there so he he found a nice rock and went to bed right away because he didn't evenknow what time it was after all he was on mars.
When he woke he tought he had dreamed tht he was on mars but when he opened hgis eyes there in fromt of him was red dust and rocks in the distance he saw a figure but he thought he was imagining it when he got up and looked for his glasses because i guess they fell off when he was sleeping they weren't any where that he could see.

I am using the v-18 revouloution cellphone that can act like a computer. There are rumors of them the newest most advance and secure cellphones just crashing. When they are fixed all kinds of stuff that was there is no longer there. I personally think it is just a error but there is a possibiltie of a super virus. What? my cell just crashed. Oh phew I just pressed the off button at least I think. Well i am just going to find out where to get some welding tools and othere things that could be used to make a robot. I make a ton of robots i have a collection.
"Jimmy get down here it dinner" hollered Mom. One sec I just need to turn of my cell. Well i am just going to eat. Mom whats for supper. "chicken" replied Mom. Oh I love chicken. I wonder if it is spicey or not? Well its still chicken! "Jimmy hows your new robot coming along?" Asked Mom. Good I just oredered new parts so far it has treads and legs the let you walk on harder terrain it also has some arms. There are aton of parts on the arms which it has sixof that go out at a time. They go inside it to get inter changed. Then it has tentacles four that are ten feet long. All i need to do is make it so it can use solar energy to and go above and under water. I am making for exploring and for recon in the winter I have a lot of snow ball fights. Well I just finished super and then the oddest thing happend my cell just turned on. It has tons of new software and controls for robots and stuff. I wonder if that came with what i just bought? What is has a new processer and all there must be some type of viruse that travels throught communications for technology and then materalize in technology. I need to find out what has happened to my cell. |

One day five fifth grades friends were playing street hockey and they saw this big red ball in the sky. They didn`t think much of it at the beggining but then when it started to get brighter and brighter they went in side. They didn`t want to admit it, but they were scared.
The next day at school they asked all of their friends if they had seen it too. But noone did. They asked teachers what it could have been. They said mars, but it wouldn`t have gotten as big as you described it. when they got home that day they sat down next to the computer and researched it. When they got to the website it said Mars as the tittle. Then it said in a little box that there could be possible life on mars. The kids started to look into mars for a long time. they relised that some of the marks on mars were strange, un-like any other planet. They have seen shows about aliens but didn`t think much of them. Until today. They didnt know why they thought they were aliens out on mars. But somthing kept bringing the idea back. They stoped researching on mars and started to research aliens. Drew, they smartest one there had an idea, he thought about making a website for comments about what astronauts thought about aliens. After about one week, we had thousands of comments. Many of the were posotive comments too. We made drew read them all though. It was his idea after all. One astronaut said he enncountered and alien on one of his trips. He said it wasn`t like the little green, big black eyed ones you see in movies. He said it looks like a human. We asked if we could meet. when we arrived at his house. there were pictures hung everywhere, and the house was very dark. |

Having one myself and having taught many in the past and hopefully many in my future, I have to wonder, what makes them tick. Is it different for each teenager? How do we motivate our teenagers to want to succeed. Is detention and home punishments really helping, or does it make things worse.
Just a thought. Love to hear yours.
