That’s a Wrap!

owlconnected.com Hey Readers, The final bell has rung, and school is out for the summer. Ahhh! Time to relax, kick off your shoes, take a walk in the seagrass … WHAT? Yep, I said seagrass. Find out more about this miraculous underwater flora (that means “plant life”) on page 18. Then learn about an Indigenous language that was almost lost but is now on the way back, thanks to community members. Find this story on page 12. You might even share it with family and friends as a way to celebrate National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21. And finally, don’t forget to wheel on over to page 22 for a look at some very cool bikes! We’ve got all this, plus comics, puzzles, and more! What a great way to kick off summer. Pop…

Dear OWL, Hi! I’m Emerson. I’m 11 and love to do arts and crafts. I also love to film movies! My sister and I make stopmotion movies with our dolls. When I grow up, I want to be a director! —Emerson Dear Emerson, It sounds like you’re on the right track to accomplishing your director dreams! Filming is a lot of fun, and a great way to create memories of you and your sis. Keep on rolling! —Melissa, editor Dear OWL, I love drawing and painting. I also love to play Roblox with my friends.

CAT GOT YOUR CLOTHES?

Here’s the perfect outfit for any gaming cat lover. A Japanese company has created a hoodie with a built-in pouch for your pet kitty. That way, your cat can chill out with you as you play your favourite video game. The hoodie even has cat ears to help you bond with your kitty. No cat? No problem. We’re guessing there’s room inside for a small dog or another pint-sized pet. And if all else fails, that pouch would make a handy spot to keep a snack for when the munchies strike! So what do you think? Is this a fashion do or don’t?

CAT GOT YOUR CLOTHES?

Beware of the dinos! A garden in Paris was recently overrun with dinosaurs. But this wasn’t a Jurassic Park situation. The dinos were inflatable replicas for an art exhibit. The massive creatures were made of hand-painted silk and included the likes of a Stegosaurus, Velociraptor, and T.rex. Each prehistoric sculpture was even designed to light up so visitors could tour the outdoor exhibit at night. Besides dinosaurs, the show featured over 100 other species that have lived on Earth during the past 600 million years. Sounds like a walk on the wild side.…

AN ISOLATED LANGUAGE:

About the Author Alix Goetzinger grew up in the village of HlGaagilda, meaning “place becoming stone” (also known as Skidegate), Haida Gwaii. Her Haida name is SGaana Gaahlandaay, meaning “Spirit of the Killerwhale.” Alix comes from the Kayahl ‘Laanas Eagle clan, and has been learning and speaking the Xaayda Kil dialect of the Haida language all her life. She is also a traditional mask dancer, singer, and weaver. British Columbia is home to 204 Indigenous communities and an amazing diversity of Indigenous languages. Approximately 50 percent of all the Indigenous languages of Canada are spoken in British Columbia. These Indigenous languages are very precious, as they hold the history of the land and people around them. But because of colonization, many of these languages are at risk and need to be saved. WHAT…

UNDERWATER GRASSLANDS!

TAKING ROOT Usually the green stuff we see in water is algae. From microscopic organisms to seaweeds to kelp as tall as a house, algae is everywhere in the ocean. But seagrasses are not seaweed. They are much closer to land plants than anything in the sea. A key difference is in how they are fixed to the seafloor. Algae uses a holdfast—this is like a foot that grips rocks or the seafloor. But seagrasses grow along a root system, similar to strawberries. The roots go beneath the surface of the seafloor, sprouting multiple leaves. And like plants on land, seagrasses use their roots to anchor them and draw nutrients from the ground. FOOD AND SHELTER Seagrasses are an extremely important part of marine ecosystems. They are great producers of oxygen—a patch of…

WINNING AT ROBOTICS

After realizing that many people find it challenging to pick up medical prescriptions in person, Team 458 was inspired to engineer an electronic safety box that digitally signs and accepts packages, hands-free. Let’s learn more about the team and their project! MEET THE FEDRX They call their project the FedRx (inspired by the delivery company FedEx and Rx, the symbol used for medical prescriptions), and it is a safe box that sits on a porch or mounts on the side of a house. WORK, WORK, WORK The team of grade eight students formed at the beginning of school last year and got to work brainstorming and building. They built prototypes out of Lego and made promotional product videos so they could present their project to judges who would decide if they had what it…

WINNING AT ROBOTICS

SNEAKER CYCLE This bike is quite the feet and a shoe-in for our list. Yes, it has wheels made of sneakers! Each wheel has six metal “feet,” and each foot “wears” a sneaker. It’s a bumpy ride, but it works! FEELING ELECTRIC Electric bicycles, or e-bikes, might sound like cheating, but they’re a great way to get more out of your bicycle journey! Most e-bikes only assist your pedalling—they don’t do all the work for you. There are three classes of e-bikes, each with different levels of motor power. And if you forget to charge the battery, you can still ride yours like a normal bicycle. Snow Problem! In some places, winters are snowy, icy, and long. What’s a cycling fan to do? Get some fat tires! Fat tire bikes give extra traction in winter…

OWL’S SUMMER PLAYLIST CONTEST

MEET A TEEN AUTHOR!

OWL: How did Crowned in Curls start? AISHA: In June 2020, I was embarking on a natural hair journey—prior to this, I disliked my natural afro-textured hair. Returning to in-person learning was looking very slim, so I was looking for ways to make use of my time. The idea of writing this book came to me. O: When did you decide that you would illustrate the book, too? A: I wanted to step out of my comfort zone and improve my drawing skills. I didn’t give myself a backup option, so Crowned in Curls depended on my efficiency and productivity with the drawings. O: How did you find a publisher? A: I met with the founder of Paper Dog Press, Kate Lavut, in 2016 on a trip to Montreal. I showed her writing I did…
