The Battle of Gettysburg

The Battle Of Gettysburg
It was the day that we were scouting the forest when we encountered some Confederate soldiers. The three of us quickly dove into a nearby cave and raised our rifles and listened diligently to the crunch of the leaves. The five men instantly turned to the opening of the cave. I raised my rifle and aimed it at the person. Then there was a BANG The solder fell on the ground then the 4 more soldiers ran quickly over into the cave and a huge gunfight broke out BOOM, BANG till finally all of them were on the ground. We could here more footsteps in the distance by then we ran back to base camp.

We got back to camp in late dusk. We told general George Meade Led What we saw and what direction they were heading. Early in the morning when the trumpet sounded the general told us that we were heading to Gettysburg Pennsylvania. We packed the wagons and the thousands of soldiers marched from New york to south east PA. About 15 of us didn’t make it because of the very bad starvation and outbreaks of measles, smallpox, camp itch and skin disease.

It was the second day of warfare and so far it looked like the Confederate was going to win but at the third day we were finishing them off and though we were almost out of supplies.When the south retreated we knew that we had won. Cheers echoed across the valley.

The Titanic

One day I was at the harbor waiting for my turn to board the titanic. I boarded the titanic on Wednesday, April 10,1912. When we set sail the fog horns bellowed across the valley. I was so excited to see my room luckily my family was rich so we could afford first class. For some reason we docked again at 12:45 and loaded more passengers

The next day was the day we had a disaster drill. The sirens squealed and over the loudspeaker the captain said that this is just a drill. It was okay not that scary everyone was walking around to the spot’s were the captain told them to go. When we were done everyone went back to their rooms and most of them went to bed.

The next day everyone woke up and the first class people ate a delicious breakfast of eggs, bacon,toast, and when we were done it was 11:00 am and the sea air was getting colder I started to see icebergs appearing and it was snowing by the time it was 3:00 pm and then it was dinner shortly after that it was a dinner of lemonade and crabs. Then people went to bed.

April 14,1912.That night everyone started to scream WE’RE SINKING!!!!!!!! Then I realized that we were actually sinking the siriens squealed as loud as possible Luckily I was able to get on a lifeboat but in the distance I could see the Titanic the unsinkable ship sinking and I could here the last screams before it was gone. In the distance I could see a ship then when it got closer I could see it was as big as the Titanic.It was the Carpathia.People helped us on bored and offered soup and warm blankets. And that is the story of the titanic

Pennsylvania Livestock & Crops

  Livestock is super important because it supplies 70% of Pennsylvania agriculture income. Like cows they make some of the stuff that we eat like milk and beef. We also have animals like pigs.They make bacon, ham and ribs.We have lots of other animals too.Also Pennsylvania is the leading egg producing state because of our chicken farms.

 

  Crops are important because they supply the food stock too.These include sweet corn, potatoes, tobacco, corn, tomatoes, beans and cabbage.Also 9% of our green houses and nurseries create the largest reniviews.Like mushrooms,they rank second in producing 8% of pennsylvania’s total agricultural recipes.
