			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am going to have a competition called &#8220;Which is Hotter; Sun vs. Big Red Star?&#8221;</p>
<p>I have been reading about our sun and stars and I went to a planetarium with my Grandma. We learned a little bit about the universe, but I did not find out which type of star was hotter. I thought a competition would be a great way to learn. Next Saturday I will look up  the answer and see who was correct!</p>
<p>Here is what you do:</p>
<ol>
<li>Read the title.</li>
<li>Think about your answer. Do <strong><em>not</em></strong> look up the answer!</li>
<li>Post your answer as a comment.</li>
</ol>
<p>Thank-you!</p>
<p>UPDATE</p>
<p>Everybody was right, the sun is hotter than a red star. Congratulations! Everybody who participated can now spend as much time with me as they want!</p>
<p>I looked up the answer using Google. I found the answer on Wikipedia, but Mom made me check another site too. Here is the link to Wikipedia if you want to read more: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_classification">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_classification</a></p>
<p>Ol&#8217; Papa, I also learned that the stars are different colors because of how hot they are. The hottest stars are blue and the coolest stars are red.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A story by Ari (age 6)</p>
<p>One day I saw a field.  It needed some work.  People had littered and it was weedy.  I wanted to fix it up.  As I started the work, flies surrounded me.  &#8220;What shall I do?&#8221; I asked myself, &#8220;Shall I continue or not&#8221;? I decided to ignore them.  They buzzed around me everywhere I went.  I felt like I was a queen fly!</p>
<p>I recycled all of the trash.  I sorted it and put it in my recycling bin.  I put some things in my compost bin and had only a little trash to throw away.  I weeded the field and put the weeds in the compost bin too.</p>
<p>When I got done, everything looked so beautiful that I couldn&#8217;t even believe my eyes.  There were fields of muliticolored flowers and light green grass.  I saw one tree that was so tiny.  It had no grass surrounding it because I had just planted it and removed the nearby grass.  It was a beautiful miracle.</p>
<p>Now other children can see the fantastic field and play it in.  The Earth is happy too because it looks great and it is clean.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let me tell you a bit about what is going on with my family&#8230;</p>
<p>Mommy is so excited that she is out of school. Her last day was Wednesday. This summer Mommy and I will have our own school. She is reading me a book called <i>Little House in the Big Woods</i> about a girl named Laura.</p>
<p>Abba is fourteen months old. That means she is one year and two months old. She is walking and walking and walking all over. Friday was Abby&#8217;s last day at Ms. Debby&#8217;s house for daycare. She will stay home with us this summer.</p>
<p>Daddy is getting ready to go to work right now. We love him and tomorrow is Father&#8217;s Day, so we will do lots of things for him like say &#8220;Happy Father&#8217;s Day!&#8221;</p>
<p>Friday was my last day of school too. I will miss my teachers and I will miss the kids at school. This summer I will make my own school with Mom. I will learn math, reading, handwriting and other stuff. We will go on field trips and have water days.</p>
