Frogfishes
Frogfishes
Frogfishes are a type of anglerfishes. They are small, short and stocky. They live in the sea and have many special features. Here is a short information report all about Frogfishes.
What they look like?
Believe it or not, frogfishes can camouflage. Frogfishes camouflage to keep safe from predators. They are a bit like chameleons and can change into nearly any color. These colors can be pink, white, black, orange, yellow and brown.
Habitats
Frogfishes live in the sea. They are found world wide but are mostly bunched in different oceans mostly Australia.
Hunting
Frogfishes eat crustaceans. They eat each other and other fishes. When a frogfish spots his/her prey, it follows it with it’s eyes. If the prey catches, it quickly camouflages. When the Frogfish thinks it’s time, it then slowly moves towards it, preparing for attack. It runs up to it and swallows it into it’s mouth. The attack can be 6 milliseconds long.
Other Facts
- Frogfishes are masters of disguise
- They can disguise
- Frogfishes have a fin which is used to attract their prey. If their fin is eaten or damaged it can grow back
- They are carnivores
- Their mouth can expand 12 times larger than it’s actual size
- Because frogfish lack to swim, they use their fins to walk, or even to gallop across the seafloor

Recount With A Twist
“Hooray!” I screamed in excitement. My friends and I had agreed to go shopping in the weekend. It was not just any kind of shopping. We we’re going to our favourite places.
The huge day had come. We all decided to meet at the first ever shop we knew. It may sound like a normal shopping day but it wasn’t, it was like shopping around the whole entire world!
Once we all met up, we just couldn’t stop chatting. I thought we were going to spend the whole day screaming and shouting at each other, talking about all the crazy things that had happened during the week.
An hour had already passed. I showed my friends the time, we had taken so long and were wasting valuable shopping time. They couldn’t believe the time that we had spent standing and shouting at eachother. I had to force them to stop talking and get on with our shopping. It may have taken long and I may have lost my voice but it was worth it, we were finally moving.
My friends and I had finally arrived at our destination. We were sprinting to our favourite shop until..
A fat rich man stepped in front of me. I could tell he was rich by the type of clothes he was wearing.
‘Umm excuse me?” I said softly at the huge man.
“Congratulations!” the man said.
`I had no idea what was going on. My friends had run off to the shops not caring about anything.
“Why are you congratulating me?” I asked the rich man.
“Because you get to buy anything you want and I’ll paying for everything!”. The man said proudly.
I didn’t even care about who he was or how I could buy anything I wanted, all I cared about was SHOPPING! I sprinted as fast as I could to find my friends and told them everything. We then rushed to the rich man and bought nearly anything we saw.
“How much money do you even have?” I questioned him.
“Don’t you know, I’m made out of money!” The rich man screamed at my face.
Half of our time had gone. We may have got everything we ever wanted but something just didn’t feel right.
“Do you know what the problem is?” I asked the man and my friends. I knew my friends were just feeling the same as me as I knew this by the look on their tired faces. We all sat for a while and tried to think about what was wrong.
“Oh! I know what’s wrong!” My friend shouted at us. As soon as my friend said that, we all sat up.
“Now that we have all we want, it just doesn't feel right buying everything with someone elses money.” We couldn’t agree more with each other. There was only one thing we could do to fix the problem. We gave everything we brought back to the rich man. Tears flowed down our faces and the man was also sad, he told us that we could keep one thing each. I kept just one of my favourite dresses. It felt like that was all I ever needed!.
That was the best day ever!

The Grasshopper and the Ant
5 sentence retell
There once was an ant and a grasshopper. They both knew that winter was coming! The ant would prepare food for him and his family everyday, while the grasshopper would be careless and just play around. When Winter came by, the ant had everything prepared while the grasshopper was starving and very weak. The moral of this story is that: Be prepared because you will need it!
