Welcome back to another great school year! It’s good to see your friends you haven’t seen all summer long, isn’t it? After the summer’s rest, it’s time to get in the mode to learn a lot. Hopefully you’ve set some goals for this year like getting your assignments done every day, going to bed on time, eating a good breakfast, just to name a few. Don’t forget to make a new friend if there’s someone new in your class! September is the month that Michigan changes. If you look around you, you will see the leaves beginning to change color and that’s a beautiful sight! The nights are starting to get cooler also. One of the best things about Michigan is the seasons. Many states don’t have such dramatic changes in the way they look - we’re very lucky here. We hope you enjoy your new school year!

Nothing like naming a fish correctly! Archerfish are amazing in their ability to shoot food. But, they don’t shoot this food underwater...no...they shoot insects and small animals off branches above the water! So just like an archer shooting a deer with a bow for their dinner, archerfish use water as their arrows to shoot their meals. There are only 7 types of archerfish, and they live in deep pools of fresh, salt or brackish waters in Australia, Polynesia, Indonesia and the Philippines. Brackish water is half salt and half fresh water, usually in a estuary where a river and the ocean meet. The unique lower jaw of an archerfish gives it its ability to fire water arrows at their prey. Their jaw is large and sticks out allowing them to shoot water very well. Their bodies are also unique. They are usually never more than 6 inches long. They are almost a straight line along the top - all the better to lurk at the water’s surface looking for food! Their coloring also helps them to blend in with their environment, so they don’t become dinner. The archerfish’s shooting skills are unmatched. An adult fish will hit their target every time! They will shoot spiders, grasshoppers and more, knocking them off of branches and into the water. They shoot by squirting water through their open mouth, and can even shoot up to 3 feet! But they don’t always shoot their food. If it is close enough they will jump and grab it! This page proudly sponsored by:

Create an Archerfish Mobile
What you will need: wire string paper crayons scissors Tie 2 foot long wires together as a T. From each end hang a 6” piece string. Color and cut out 4 archerfish and tie to the ends of the string. Color and cut out 4 bugs and glue them to the end of the wires for your archers to shoot.
Try This!
Brackish is the way to go! If you want a different and really cool fish tank...a brackish water tank is the way to go. The water needs to be kept slightly salty, but doesn’t take much more work than a freshwater tank. Brackish water species are very unique and fun. They include archerfish, fiddler crabs, scats, pufferfish, and gobies. You can set up cool tanks with different habitats to accommodate all of their needs - and a really cool tank!

You’re Finally Back To School! The first couple weeks of school are exciting. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared because of all the new things. New teachers, new grade, new friends and maybe even a new school. Most teachers start off the school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you’ll be doing this year. They may also talk about classroom rules you need to know. Some ask that students introduce themselves to the class and tell something about themselves. You may already know most of the kids in your class but, the first couple of weeks are a great time to make a new friend if there is someone new in your classroom. Make the first move and say hello. Making someone new feel comfortable in their new environment is a wonderful thing to do. A great idea for starting the new year is to make some resolutions to study smarter this year. When you do well in school, you feel better about yourself on the whole. The following are some ideas to help. 1. Pay attention in class. Make sure you are sitting in a good seat that lets you pay attention. Can you see the chalkboard? If you can’t tell your parents or teacher. 2. Take good notes in class. Write down facts that your teacher mentions in class or writes on the board. Review these notes later as they will help you with quizzes or papers you need to write. 3. Plan ahead. Don’t wait until Thursday night to study for Friday’s test! It makes it hard to do your best. Write down on a calendar your test and assignment due dates. Then every day plan how much time to spend on each subject. 4. Break it up if there’s a lot to study. Study some each day. That’s where practice comes in. The more days you spend
reviewing something, the more likely it will stick in your brain. Also study your homework for about 45 minutes, take a break for some water or snack and begin again if you have a lot to do. Fight the temptation to turn on the TV and stop doing what you need to. 5. Ask for help if you don’t understand the material. Teachers are more than willing to clear up the confusion or if you’re home, ask mom or dad. 6. Get some sleep. Your brain needs time to digest all the information you’ve studied. With a good night’s sleep, you will do better on the test your going to take!

The Great White Shark The great white shark is commonly found in waters near the United States, South Africa, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, and the Mediterranean. They live off the coasts of all continents except for Antarctica. The great white shark isn’t really all white - the back of the shark can be grey or even blue! Great white sharks can get very big! An adult shark can be up to 20 feet long and over 7000 pounds! This makes them dangerous predators with their size being intimidating as well as their teeth. A great white’s teeth are very sharp,

Our Earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Moon Have you ever looked up at the sky and stared at the Moon? There have been a lot of stories about the Moon. Since itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our closest neighbor in space, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural to be curious about it. The Moon has played an important part in our history. Ancient civilizations like the Aztecs built temples in honor of the Moon and observed its phases. Native American communities have passed down folktales of how the Moon came to be. Some people pass down stories about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Man in the Moonâ&#x20AC;? or nursery rhymes about the cow jumping over the Moon.

The Moon is a natural satellite or celestial body that orbits our planet. Some planets like Jupiter have more moons than we do. We have only one. We can watch it rise and set like the sun and at different times of the month, we see different sizes of the Moon - like a half or quarter moon, crescent moon, or full moon. The Moon rises in the east and sets in the west - just like the sun. Sometimes, you can see the sun and the Moon in the sky at the same time! The Earth spins on its axis. It takes 24 hours for Earth to spin once. It takes about 28 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth. Together the Moon and the Earth orbit the sun and that takes 365 days which is our year.
