- The best trip my family ever took was to the mountains. Our entire family drove there in our car.I did not think it would be very interesting, but I was wrong. We enjoyed it thoroughly as the weather was great, saw beautiful sunsets, and visited a quaint villagewhere everyone was friendly and easy going. I liked the food best as I feel it tasted better and we were able to have it in the fresh air!
- No one likes to eat with a dirty knife, fork, or spoon. It is important to completely wash all cutlery before using them. Even if they look clean, it is important to wash them with the right detergent. Clean cutlery won’t transmit germs and bacteria and therefore help prevent diseases and infections. It is one of the simplest ways to keep safe and healthy.

- Growing a garden can be fun, good exercise, and will provide fresh fruits and vegetables for the
gardener. It is interesting to watch the seeds pop their heads above the soil for the first time. It is sometimes hard to believe that a little seed can become a large vine or plant in just a few weeks. Planting the seeds and pulling weeds are good exercise for anyone. Then, after watching the plant grow and produce, the gardener ends up with delicious tomatoes, beans, or other yummy produce from the garden.

- Sometimes it is hard to fall asleep. Maybe you are not sleepy, or maybe you are thinking about what happened during the day. You can also lie awake if a big event, like a test or a party, is happening the next day. There are several things you can do to try and fall asleep. You can try counting sheep, or just counting, which will keep your mind busy with a repetitious activity. Sometimes listening to soft music or gentle sounds, like rain, helps. You can even try telling yourself a story, which may distract your mind enough that you will be asleep in no time.

v. Many people think poetry is old-fashioned and uninteresting. They do not realize that every time they hear a song sung, they are hearing poetry in the form of song lyrics. Just like many written poems, many song lyrics use rhythm, rhyme, and literary imagery. It turns out that poetry isn’t old-fashioned; it’s as modern as the latest hit song!
