In math class, fifth grade students are learning an easy new way to solve division problems. It looks a bit like a graph, and this is how you do it. You start out with a graphing paper, and you draw a rectangle with the horizontal sides longer than the vertical ones. Say the problem is 608/16. First you print the problem on top so you don't forget the problem. You put the divisor of your problem on the left side of the rectangle, separating the ones and tens, putting the tens on top and the ones below the tens, and put a horizontal line separating the middle of the rectangle. 10 should be above the horizontal line and to the left, and the 6 should be below the ten. Put vertical lines lon the graph leaving enough space for you to write.Then, you put how many times think it would go in. After that you first multiply the number by the ten. In this example you would probably want to start with 20. 10x20=200 then you add that to 6x20=120 which would give you 320. Put the answers in the graph where the numbers that you multiplied cross. Then you draw a vertical dividing your numbers from the other part. After that you do the rest of the problem until you get your answer, which is in this case 38. To get your answer, add up the numbers above the graph.

Do you know what an owl is? Owls are fierce feathery birds. Their colors vary from brown, gray, white, and also black. They have  sharp talons and meat ripping beaks. An owl's size can reach up to 33 inches or as tiny as 5 inches. A owl's personality is predator style with their meals  reaching as big as a skunk. Owls come in many diferent shapes and personalities .They also come with different stories from people before, such as the Native Americans. On October 31, we learned about owls and listened to legends of owls. An Audubon woman taught us about owls.She showed us the different types of owls, their callings and how they communicate . It sounded really cool on the radio. Owls can also make different sounds that mean different things.  Some examples are: mating calls, warnings, also a stress call, and a food calls. Owls are incredibly important animals on Earth because without owls our animal population(skunks, squirrels, mice,snakes, and other small animals) the animal population would be increasing by the second.The owls of the world are: the snowy owl, elf owl, long eared owl, short ear owl, great gray hawk owl, the barn owl, the screech owl, the burrowing owl, and many more. These are the owls of the world, and this is how important owls are to us.
