Third Grade Story 1Mike is in third grade. He was just one of the kids in Ms. Brown's class. Then something special happened. Mike became a superhero! How did it happen? It all started when Mike was on his way home from school. 2It was a rainy day. Then it got very dark. The woman from outer space gave him super powers. Suddenly Mike saw a rocket ship streak across the sky. The rocket ship crashed into the pond. The pond was behind Mike's house. He ran to the edge of the pond to get a good look. The ground was muddy from the rain. Mike began sliding down the muddy hill. He could not stop himself. Splash! He landed in the water. 3The water was glowing like a bright light. The pilot of the rocket ship was a woman from outer space. Mike helped her push her rocket out of the pond. Then she touched him gently on his head. There was a flash of light. All of a sudden Mike felt very strong. Mike knew he had homework to do. The pilot climbed back into her rocket ship. Then she said, "You are very special now. You are as strong as ten men. You can fly like a bird. Be sure to use your powers to do right and to _____ against wrong. Goodbye." Free powerpoint template: www.brainybetty.com

State Nicknames 1 Each state has a nickname. Most states have state birds, state flowers, and state trees, too. Tennessee has had a few nicknames. The one that seems to have stuck best is "The Volunteer State." This name comes from long ago. 2 In 1776, we were at war with Britain. We were fighting to win our independence. This was called the American Revolution. When the war was over, the U.S. was a free country at last! After many years of fighting, the war ended. 3 In less than 30 years, the two countries were at war again. This time, the fight was called the War of 1812. One of the strongest leaders was General Andrew Jackson. He was from Tennessee. Many of the soldiers he led were volunteers from his state. That is how the state came to be known as "The Volunteer State." Free powerpoint template: www.brainybetty.com
