It’s waaaay too small to hold a person. Who flies in these little planes? Leprechauns? Actually, a drone is a flying gadget that is flown by remote control.
Drones can hover like a hummingbird, swoop like a bat and fly backwards like a dragonfly! Small drones can carry tiny cameras and they can go places humans can’t. There are a lot of useful ways drones are being used: • Firefighters use them to watch forest fires.
While they are often small and cute, drones are not toys. Having a vehicle that can fly over the fence and see what’s going on at a neighbor’s home means you have to follow rules and think about privacy and safety. Be sure to check with your local government officials about drone laws in your area. Learning to fly a drone requires learning to think and make decisions just like a pilot. It takes time and patience to master flying a drone safely and that means doing a lot of practice in an empty field. To advertise, please call & Oceana’s Herald-Journal Ludington Daily News
• Wildlife biologists use them to study wild animals in their natural surroundings. • Amazon.com has plans to use drones for sameday delivery of packages. • Meteorologists use drones to track storms.

It is important that people who fly drones follow the laws. There are laws that protect privacy and also laws designed to keep drones out of the paths of airplanes. Why do you think these laws are important? Discuss it with a parent. © Vicki Whiting March 2016

M e e t S u s a n B . A n t h o n y, a w o m a n w h o m a d e m a n y A m e r i c a n s t h i n k a b o u t f a i r n e s s .
usan B. Anthony’s strong belief in equal rights for all American citizens started young. When her father found out that her teacher refused to teach Susan long division, he hired a teacher and started his own school. He believed girls should get the same education as boys.
On Election Day, Nov. 5, 1872, Susan B. Anthony walked into her polling place and voted. Two weeks later, a U.S. marshal knocked on her door. “I have a warrant for your arrest,” he told Susan. “You are charged with voting without the lawful right to vote.”
Years later, Susan heard people talking about ending slavery. She agreed with this idea. Just like her father, she believed all people were equal.
In 1872, by U.S. law, a person had to be 21 years or older to vote. Susan was born in 1820. Was she old enough to vote?
Susan worked for the American Anti-Slavery Society. She traveled throughout New York state giving talks about the issue of slavery.
Susan met two other requirements for the right to vote. She was a U.S. citizen and she had never been convicted of a felony crime.
A black co-worker and his sister traveled with Susan. In some communities, no hotel would let her black friends stay. But this didn’t stop Susan. She would hunt until she found private homes where they could all stay.
Why was she arrested for voting? Use the code to find out!
Standards Link: History: Students understand the importance of individual action and how heroes from long ago have made a difference in others’ lives.
100 years after Susan was born, passage of the 19th Amendment gives women the right to vote.
Susan B. Anthony spent her life speaking to people about equal rights. Sometimes people who opposed her ideas showed up with rotten eggs and even guns. But Susan never stopped speaking and writing about her beliefs. Draw a line from each box to the correct place on the time line. Use the stories on this page to help you. 1810

Paul Bunyan isn’t the only giant in American legends. Old-timers along the Mississippi River tell of a giant of a woman – Annie Christmas. The stories say she worked on the river docks near the French Quarter in New Orleans and she was fearless – especially when it came to dealing with bullies who hung out on the docks.
When you see a blank line in the story below, a word is missing. Select one of the words in Annie’s barrel for each blank until the story makes sense.
Longshoreman n. A dock worker who loads and unloads ships. Keelboat n. A large flat-bottomed river boat used to carry freight. To advertise, please call & Oceana’s Herald-Journal Ludington Daily News
www.kidscoop.com
Occasionally, Annie liked to get all dressed up. Once, she put on a ___ satin dress and red feather plumes in her hair and took a trip on a ___________ called the Natchez Belle. The captain of that boat was as stubborn as he was mean. When the _________ turned bad, he decided to take a shortcut through a channel that cut across a bend in the ________________ River. Annie knew the river like the back of her hand and she knew that the cutoff was full of snags and sandbars that could _____ the big paddle wheeler. But the stubborn captain wouldn’t listen. When the boat hit a sandbar, Annie loaded passengers on her keelboat and fought the current back to the main river. Behind her the Natchez Belle was broken up and _________ by the muddy, swirling river water. The _______________ hugged Annie, thanking her for saving their lives. They say Annie’s face turned as red as her dress. Standards Link: Literary Response: Students comprehend basic plots of folk tales.

Number the pictures in order to show how a crayon is made. First— Electricity is used to heat and melt colored paraffin wax. Second – A machine pours the wax into crayon molds.
Everything comes from something or somewhere. The original building blocks—materials, labor and tools—that we use to make things are also called resources.
Third – The wax cools and hardens. Fourth – Inspectors remove the hardened crayons from the molds and check them for broken tips, cracks and other blemishes.
To make crayons, you need three kinds of resources: Things made by nature, like sunshine, soil, trees, minerals and oil.
Fifth – A labeling machine wraps and glues a paper label around each crayon.
These are people like you and me!
Name one natural resource used to make crayons:
These are tools, machines and equipment needed to make things.

ANIMALS

By Habitat Reporter Pelican “The Scoop” Brown
Just like people, all animals need three things to survive: food, water and shelter. I am a brown pelican —the state bird of Louisiana. Not too many years ago, all of the brown pelicans in Louisiana died out. Why? Our food, mostly fish, became poisoned by pesticides. Fortunately farmers no longer use these poisons and brown pelicans were brought from Florida to start new colonies in Louisiana.
We pellies like to nest in colonies – large groups of pelicans. We look for quiet islands where our eggs and chicks will be safe from predators. But even on islands, the eggs and chicks are not safe from gulls and crows. Parent pelicans take turns sitting on the eggs and covering the young chicks. This also protects them from the sun during the day and from cool ocean breezes at night. Standards Link: Life Science: Animals inhabit different environments and have features that help them thrive.

The brown pelican fishes for food in its own special way. Other pelicans scoop up fish while swimming. The brown pelican likes to fly 10 to 30 feet above the water and then dive for its catch of the day.

• When a brown pelican sees a fish, it tips downward and dives into the water.

• The bird hits the water so hard that it stuns fish 6 feet under the water. • The stunned fish is scooped up in the pouch under the pelican’s bill. *NOTE: Special air sacs under its skin cushion the pelican from the impact of the water. The air sacs also help the bird to bob right back to the surface of the water.

ANIMALS Pelicans carry fish back to the nest in their pouches.
After a fish is caught, the pelican squeezes its pouch and the water drains out of the bill.
Pelican pouches keep the birds cool.
The weight in the pouch would make it too hard for the bird to fly. Pelicans eat their catch and later regurgitate some food to feed the chicks back at the nest.
11
Pelicans swallow a lot of water when they swallow a fish.
A pelican opens its bill and flutters the sides of its pouch, moving air over the moist insides of the pouch. The moisture evaporates and cools the bird much like the evaporation of sweat cools people’s skin.

Kites were invented more than 3,000 years ago, according to some historians. Some say they were invented in China. Others say they were invented in the South Pacific islands. Regardless of where they were invented, kites have a history as useful tools and toys.
Draw a carp shape on one sheet of newspaper to look like this one. Cut out the carp shape. Use the pattern to cut out an identical fish from another page of the paper. Decorate with crayons, markers, glitter, etc.

Staple the sides of the fish together, leaving the mouth end open.
Fishermen use kites to attract fish. Long ago, kites were built that could carry a person aloft to spy on enemies.
There are many different kinds of kites: box kites, sled kites, diamond kites, dragon kites and more. Follow the lines of string to see who is flying which kite.
