TOOTH FAIRIES VISIT
BLYTH PUBLIC SCHOOL
by Charlene Hulzebos and
Julie McNichol
This week at Blyth Public School
the Tooth Fairies came to tell us
about our teeth. They are em
ployees of the Huron County
Health Unit and visit all the
elementary schools.
They visited grade one and
showed them a movie about a “Pig
That Ate Too Much Junk Food’’.
The Tooth Fairy also gave them a
tooth brush and a magnet. Ryan
Lee liked the movie best and
Bonnie Stewart also liked the
movie.
She also went to the Grade 3
class and asked them questions
about caring for their teeth. They
watched a movie about Charlie
Brown flossing his teeth. They
received a toothbrush, toothpaste
and a ruler. Steven liked the movie
and the big mouth that she used to
show them how to brush their teeth
and the toothbrush shaped like an
alligator. Michelle Hallahan liked
the movie and the toothbrush.
The Grade fives watched a movie
called “Sweet Water Gultch’’. She
showed them how to floss and
brush their teeth. Mark Wilson
liked the flossing and Zoey Onn
liked the movie best.
There was only one Tooth Fairy
visiting each classroom but there
were three of them altogether. Two
of them were going to the class
rooms and one was a student that
came to observe. She was a “Tooth
Fairy-in-training.”
STRETCH, SOMERSAULT AND
FLIP
by Kimey Richmond and
Kim Ferguson
On Tuesday. March 27, the Blyth
Gymnastics Club stru+ted their
stuff in front of the students in the
school gym. Mrs. Betty Battye and
Danielle McDougall instructed the
group this year. Mrs. Battye has
been instructing groups of gym
basts every Monday night for 13
years.
The group demonstrated every
thing from somersaults to aerials to
vaulting to stretches. Gymnasts
from grade 1 to 7 participated in
the event. They gave a very
interesting performance, which
was enjoyed by everyone.
YOUNG EINSTEINS
by Brian Machan and
John Ramirez
For the past week there have
been many little Einsteins, Edi
sons, and Bantings running around
Blyth Public School. Why? Prepar
ing for the “Science Fair”. There
were many excellent exhibits rang
ing from paper towel testing to
mold formation to the effect of
insecticides on bees. It is obvious
that the students put a lot of time
and effort into their projects.
Two students from the senior
division (Gr. 7 & 8) will advance to
county level competition. They are
Jodee Medd and Erica Clark, both
from grade 7. Jodee’s project was
about the effects of Malathion
insecticide used on wasps/honey
bees. Erica’s thesis was Mold
Formation. They were both exem
plary projects, and we wish them
luck in further competitions.
We would also like to extend our
“thank-you’s” to Mrs. P. Hulley
and Miss D. Morgan for the time
and effort they put into advising
the students and arranging and
grading the science fair exhibits.
TRIP TO THE PET STORE
by Steph Lentz and
Jen Stadelmann
On Wednesday, March 21, the
Kindergarten class went to the
Clinton Pet Store. They saw a
yellow and brown snake, guinea
pigs, green, red and yellow birds
and lots of fish.
Tyler Wilson said he liked the
catfish the best. Jamie Lewis liked
the orange goldfish out of all the
pets. And Shaun Henry enjoyed

BLYTH PUBLIC DINOSAUR
SCHOOL
by Kim Ferguson and
Kimey Richmond
Mrs. Hencher and the Grade 2
students have been deep in Dino
saur Land for about a month. They
learned about the different types of
dinosaurs such as the Stegosaurs,
Brontosaurus, Ticeratops, etc.
They talked about the colour of
each one, read books, made models
and enjoyed dinosaur activities.
Some of the activities were: lunch
for a brontosaurus, a huge hall
mural and other art and stories.
Some of the stories go like this;
Ninety million years ago dino
saurs ruled the world.
The tyrannosaurus rex walked
very fast - very fast.
The brontosaurus defended him
self.
The tyrannosaurus rex liked to
eat other little dinosaurs.
By Chauncey Carter
I have a pet brontosaurus and it
ate all the leaves on my trees.
He has a big dinosaur house.
It sticks its head in the window
and eats my supper,.
It sleeps in my tree house and his
feet and tail stick out.
In the morning he wakes me up
and I don't have to feed him
because he just goes to the park
and he eats all the leaves there too.
I say, “You bad brontosaurus”
BUT
I like my brontosaurs.
