White House Turkey Tradition Every year, shortly before Thanksgiving, the President of the United States gets the gift of a live turkey. In 1989, then President George H. Bush granted the turkey a “presidential pardon.” This means that the turkey would not be killed and served for dinner. How does this turkey get chosen? Usually the turkey comes from the farm of the current National Turkey Federation chairperson. The largest and best-behaved turkey gets chosen. This turkey will be part of a ceremony at the White House. There will be lots of people and cameras and noise. They look for a well behaved turkey who will stay calm in the midst of the festivities.

SPOTLIGHT
Some paleontologists (scientists who study dinosaurs) think that birds—as well as reptiles—may be the descendants of small meat-eating dinosaurs. Here are some of their reasons: 1. Some dinosaurs cared for their young. Reptiles do not. 2. The bones of the earliest bird-like creature, Archaeopteryx, are very similar to those of small carnivorous dinosaurs.
Standards Link: Life Science: Some kinds of organisms that once lived on Earth have disappeared and some resemble others that are alive today.
Follow the changing dinosaurs until you reach the turkey!

Some people say the penny is no longer needed. Kid Scoop News lets each side of the penny debate give their two cents on the subject.
Imagine you had to round each price to the nearest nickel. Look through today’s newspaper and round prices to the nearest nickel. People who support the penny say that when prices are rounded, we end up paying more for everyday products.
enny-haters say the coin is no longer needed. They say it costs more than a penny to make a penny. They think rounding prices to the nearest nickel makes more sense.
Select 10 products in today’s newspaper and round the prices to the nearest nickel. Would you pay more or less if you could pay with pennies?
enny supporters say that rounding prices to the nearest nickel would make people pay more at the store. Put a penny on each of the numbered circles. Leave the unnumbered circle empty. Following the lines, jump one penny over another into an empty space. Take each penny you’ve jumped over off the star. Keep jumping until only one penny remains.
Arrange 10 pennies to form an upside-down triangle. Then moving only three pennies, rearrange them to form a triangle pointing up. Standards Link: Reading Comprehension: Follow simple written directions; Math: problem solving.

Every day the average kid makes about 3 pounds of trash, or more! That adds up to more than 1,000 pounds of trash a year! Nearly all of this trash ends up in landfills. But landfills are filling up and we are running out of places to put trash. Many experts agree that Americans must do something about the trash problem. They say that the problem is going to get worse. Is there anything we can do? The 3 R’s can help to beat the trash problem! We can change trash into something useful. Before you toss anything into the trash can, think about how it could be used again. Jars can be washed and used to store things. Plastic butter tubs can be used to pack food for lunches. Some trash can be turned into toys!
We can make less trash. Buy things that don’t use a lot of packaging.
The Scoop!
Watch your weight!
One morning, weigh an empty trash can in your kitchen. Weigh it again at the end of the day. How many pounds of trash does your family toss in one day? See if your family can lose “waste weight” in a week.

1. Save six or more plastic bottles – soda, milk, laundry soap, dishwashing liquid, etc. 2. Clean bottles thoroughly and remove the labels. 3. Place the bottles in a triangle shape. 4. See how many you and your friends can knock down with a medium-sized ball.

HEALTH

Have you noticed kids and teachers absent from school? Most likely they have come down with a cold or the flu. Colds and the flu are caused by germs. What is a rhinovirus? It’s the name of the germ for the common cold!
Number the pictures in order to show how a virus germ makes you sick.
Germs that cause colds and flu are called viruses.
When you touch a germ, it clings to your hand. Then when you touch your mouth, eyes or nose, the germ slips into your body. Or if you touch some food, the germ moves onto the food, and when you eat the food, the germ gets inside. When someone sneezes, germs fly into the air. Take a breath near that person, and the germs may get into your lungs. Gross!
1. When a virus germ gets inside your body, it finds a healthy cell and digs its way inside. 2. Then it begins to multiply. One virus germ becomes two. Two become four. Four become eight. 3. Soon the cell is full of hundreds of virus germs. 4. The germs break out of the healthy cell. 5. Each germ finds another healthy cell and begins multiplying. Soon there are millions of virus germs in your body. Standards Link: Health: Students understand the causes and recognize symptoms of common diseases.

BIOGraPHy
In 1962, Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring was published. Her book described how DDT entered the food chain and gathered in the fatty tissues of animals, including human beings, causing cancer and other damage. Insects that bite, eat crops and garden flowers are considered pests. Years ago, scientists discovered chemicals that killed insect pests. They called these chemicals “pesticides.” For a while this seemed to be a great discovery. But further study showed that these same chemicals, particularly one called “DDT,” killed more than just bothersome insects. What may be a pest to people may be food to a fish. That fish is food for a bigger fish, which is food for an even bigger fish. Eventually one of the animals in this food chain might end up on somebody’s dinner plate.
Find where each missing word belongs in the article below.
Rachel’s book _________ people. It also made many powerful people _____. She was criticized and called terrible names. But for Rachel the message was more important than her feelings. She carefully kept track of her _______ and found other scientists who agreed with her. Eventually the United States government _______ DDT. And millions of people began to look more carefully at how human beings are __________ to the entire natural world.
Not long after Rachel completed her master’s degree in zoology, her father died and she became the sole supporter of the household she shared with her mother. In 1937, her sister died leaving two teenage daughters who joined Rachel’s household. Rachel found a job writing radio scripts for the United States Bureau of Fisheries (now called the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service). Eventually she became the editor-in-chief for all publications of this government service.
Rachel spent much of her childhood learning about nature. One night she decided to see what kinds of life could be found in the quiet of the night.
“If I had been asked a month ago, I would have said my backyard was a peaceful enough place at night. That was before I had gone exploring in it with a flashlight, and had seen how the bushes, the jungles of moss and grass, and even the woodpile were filled with hunters. After an hour of exploring by flashlight, you realize as never before how alive the night is. It is alive with a thousand watchful eyes.”

16 You read about it in the newspaper. Your parents complain about the price of it. But, what exactly is oil, and why is it the subject of so much attention?
Oil is used to make gasoline for cars, but it also is used in manufacturing LOTS of products people use every day. Unscramble the words to reveal just a few of these things.
To advertise, please call & Oceana’s Herald-Journal Ludington Daily News
The remains of prehistoric animals and plants become oil, coal and natural gas. These are known as fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are burned to heat buildings, generate electricity and, in the form of gasoline, power cars. Currently, fossil fuels provide about 80% of our energy. They power the world.
Oil started as tiny, prehistoric plants and animals called plankton and diatoms. When these plants and animals died, they sank to the bottom of the oceans and swamps that covered the Earth 300 million years ago. Over time, they were covered with layers of rock and dirt called sediment.
Oil is pumped to the surface from deep under the ground.
It took millions of years to make the oil we use today. When we use up the earth’s remaining oil, we won’t be able to replace it with more oil. That is why many scientists are looking for other sources of energy such as solar and wind power and why conserving energy is so important. One easy way to conserve oil is by cutting down on the use of plastic shopping bags. Using reusable cloth bags instead could save millions of barrels of oil every year!
The weight of layers of sediment and the heat from deep inside the earth caused the remains of plants and animals to turn into oil.
