Hi Charlee,
ReplyDeleteIt's Leslie here, a member of the Summer Learning Journey team. You're bang-on in your answers to these questions. Good for you!
I can see that you did your homework, looking up each fact. Super job!!!
I looked them up myself too because I was really curious to know more about fish. I could barely believe it when I read that some fish live for hundreds of years. The Greenland Shark is one that can live for over 200 years and, possibly, over 300. And it's huge!!! Wow!!!!
There's so much to learn about all of the creatures and plants that live on our planet. If we're lucky and if we're interested, we could learn something new every day of our lives, couldn't we?
I'm glad that you're choosing to be a learner through this Summer Learning Journey program. Good for you!
Keep up your efforts.
Cheers,
Leslie
Oops, I meant to point out that you were asked to print your TRUE/FALSE answers in capital letters but you've done yours in upper and lower case. Just a small difference - I just suggest that you read over the activities twice before you start them so that you're clear on what you're being asked to do...
