• If you see someone standing on the side of the play ground and you are playing soccer or kickball or some sort of game with other kids say “hey you want to play”and  then you made their day better.
• Imagine your self in your class room and your teacher says “class find a partner it is game time” and you are so excited but sad because your friend is already picked so  you are the only one left.  Then your friend comes up to you and says  “Do you want to be apart of our group? our teacher says we can have three.” Do you think it made him happy?  well I think it did.

The Salmon Life Cycle

Eggs

Do you want to learn about Salmon? Salmon can have thousand of eggs. The female adult salmon lay the eggs  and the male fertilize them. Salmon eggs usually have 2,500 brothers and sisters. If the water is too hot or too cold the eggs will either die or take longer to hatch.

Alevin

The eggs have hatched the next is Alevin.  First they live under the rocks. They can not come up to the surface  because they have predators. Alevin usually live 30 cm done in the water. They feed on their egg sac once the Alevin has eaten all his egg sac it becomes part of its body and it is now a fry.

 Fry

The Fry is the first stage to travel. They wait for the word to travel down streams. They start traveling  and have many challenges like predators, fisherman, dams, and pollution. The Fry make it down to the estuary. The estuary is where the saltwater and the freshwater mix. Then  when the Fry gets to the estuary it is a now called a smolt.

Smolt

The smolt is it the estuary. It and its fellow salmon are hungry. They eat shrimp and small fish. Most of the smolts die in the estuary because of predators. Some of them survive. They try to avoid nets and other things that could catch them. The go to the ocean and  become Adults.

 Adult

The Adult is it the ocean they are big and strong. They eat shrimp and small fish.  They stay in the ocean for up to seven years. Then they make their way back to where they were born. Adults finds a mate. The female finds a place to lay the eggs. The eggs will hatch and it will all happen again.
