Hi, my name is Joey L. I will be one of your new students.  To tell you a little bit about me, I have many Godzilla collectables and I love anything that has to do with Godzilla.  I also like art, mostly animation drawings.  I have reached a big goal of mine and I am now a Senior Dan in karate.  For Christmas I got a guitar, so soon I will be starting guitar lessons and I am very excited about that.  When I grow up I want to be a cake maker.  I want to be a cake maker because I want to make models of things I like into delicious cakes.  I think it’s important for a teacher to make learning fun to keep me interested in the lesson.  Our teacher brings in games for us to play and I was wondering if you can do the same for us, but only if we have a orange bracelet, also can we have lunch bunch once a month. I like reading the “The 39 Clues” books. What books do you like?  Even though I am sad that Ms. Kolbert is leaving I’m excited to meet you!

Godzilla is a fierce creature that stands about 50 feet tall and weighs over 10 tons. He lives mostly in the Pacific ocean off the coast of Japan.Merlan i think you dont know what your talking about

He was created during World War II, when the United States dropped several atomic bombs on Japan. Because of the radiation on land Godzilla was born from as a lizard but mutated into what he is.

Godzilla is capable of distroying a city by himself, his strengh is unbeliveable and he has the ability of breathing atomic fire out of his mouth.

There have been many other creatures that he has had to fight in his movies beating everyone he comes in contact with, only once he was beaten, but his heart was left in the ocean beating and growing back into a stronger Godzilla.

In one movie alone he had to face many different creatures of his size beating all of them, I don’t know of another creature as cool as he is.

I have just about every Godzilla DVD made, I’am only missing  Godzilla vs Sea Monster &  Godzilla vs Herdora. I even have a WI game named Godzilla Unleashed it is the best, every monster is in it and the only one that Godzilla has a time with is Space Godzilla.

Since I know alot about Godzilla, if you have any questions or other information about him that you would like to talk about  I’d like to hear from you!

Heres a picture of Godzilla.

Dear Mr. Campbell’s 3rd graders,

Have you ever been to Florida “The Sunshine State?”  We are known as the “Sunshine State” because we have a hot, sunny, tropical climate!  We have alligators here which are a lot like your crocodiles.  They are very similar except that the crocodile has a very long, narrow, V-shaped snout, and the alligator’s snout is wider and U-shaped.  I know you have kangaroos in Australia what is that like? Are they friendly?  My name is Joey just like a baby kangaroo! How do you like your school?  I am in 4th grade.  Does your school have a mascot?  I love my school because my teacher is awesome! We do many fun projects like the Science Fair where we get to act like a scientist and make our own hypothesis and do experiments to test it out. We also have fun class parties.  What kinds of things do you do at school?  I would like to learn about the “Land Down Under!”

Sincerely,

Joey L.

On October 16, 2010 I took my senior dan black belt test in Tang Soo Doo.  My test lasted over 5 hours,a consisted of  doing  4 different  forms of  Korean fighting  moves.  The 4 forms are basic one, psi, pydon chodan, and pydon edan.  I also had to do 18 combonations and a weapens form.  I did the basic one with the bo staff.  A bo staff is a  big stick.  I also needed to break 5 hand breaks and 5 feet breaks but of course I didnt break my hands and feet.  My plans for the future are to learn more and earn more degrees.  I also had to do moving across the floor in korean which was really challenging.  To answer Mr. Heald’s question, yes its is similar to Taekwondo, Tang Soo Doo is the father of  Taekwando. To Ms. Allen and others who are wondering why it took five hours is because I had to wait while the other people in my class were also testing.  Lastly, to answer other general questions, I’m in the fourth grade and I have been studying Tang Soo Doo for five years  and the belts consists of levels starting from white,orange, green, red, and black. There are ten degrees of black belt. I now have my first degree black belt and it will take me about two to two in a half years to get my second degree.
