The food that they eat is soap the water that they drink is beer and all the other thing you could think of that is also weird how it can eat those kind of things.
Cockroaches have 2 antennas and 6 legs just letting you know if you do not know what is a cockroach. It is an insect.They can use use their antennae to sense people when they are trying to kill them and the kinda weird is the brown bit is the exoskeleton it grows on the outside of its body.
They live under things and they live in some peoples house like my old house that is so creepy they come out of night time to live inside your house they sneak through the little holes and the gaps and the doorknobs the can live anywhere cockroaches prefer to live in warm, dark, wet areas, like sewers and basements.
They can run so fast like i know i said but it is true they can run 3 miles like a car going down to a drive way i know right pretty cool to know that and that is what i know on cock roaches.

Elijah-Narrative Writing Term 4 2020
Monday 12th of october 2020
His object is a small mirror the endeavor crew took mirrors
And cook gave many to the maori on his visit.
I was the best looking mirror in James Cook's eyes. I was used to looking at pale faces and all of a sudden I was looking at brown maori men. In my days I was a small, tiny mirror just wishing he could grow into a bigger mirror. They found me in the sand next to the sea. I could see just sea waves moving. The sun was fading away. A young boy named Toa Otiriunu came along. He was the owner of me. He took care of me and suddenly he was doing a haka and he got shot from a cannon. It broke me. I fell down and I broke myself and I was missing for all those years but I was found by a man who picked me up from the ground and repaired me. I was brand new and I was put into an envelope in a box. I didn't know what year it was until I heard the man say 2020! I was mind blown. I was given to a school named saint pius x catholic school. The room was room 5. The only thing I saw was little kids grabbing me in line with other objects. The teacher started writing everyone and a kid used me for writing. His name was Elijah. He was a good friend. He took care of me and after I never got lost again.
