Week 23 – An Odd Place to Surface (Story-Starter)

Sophia

Once upon a time there was a guy named Sam. Sam was small. He was about 1 inch tall.  He lived in a boat at the bottom of a fish bowl.  The fish in the fish bowl nibbled on the boat and it cracked. Sam came out of the fish bowl to repair his boat.

Then Ron Ron, who has making food in the kitchen, heard a noise in the living room. The noise was coming from Sam climbing out of the fish bowl. Ron Ron peeked in and saw Sam. Ron Ron thought, “No one can swim in our fish bowl except fish!” Ron Ron’s mouth was wide open.

Then Ron Ron came into the living room. He tried to get Sam but Sam was too fast. Sam went back into the fish bowl and into his boat. Ron Ron thought he was dreaming.

When it was dark, at night, Sam went out again and repaired his fish bowl.

The End

Week 19 – Illustrations

Once upon a time, there were two boys named Nathan and Gabe. They were 9 and 10. Nathan liked to exercise on his bike, and Gabe likes to explore.

One day when Nathan was riding his bike, Gabe found an old car. He wondered if the car would still work. So he got into the driver seat and turned the car on. He found out that the car was a flying car because the car started to fly! Gabe was really excited. He flew right past Nathan. Nathan heard the noise and looked up. He was surprised to find Gabe in a flying car!

Nathan asked Gabe if he could come in and Gabe said yes. But Gabe couldn’t land the car! It wouldn’t stop flying! Now Gabe was sad because his brother couldn’t come fly with him. Nathan was sad because he thought it would be way more fun to be in the flying car.

After an hour of being sad, Gabe saw a button in the car. He wondered what it would do… so he pushed it. The car started going down! He landed softly on the front lawn of their house. Then Nathan got in and they both started flying.

The end.

Week 16 – Interview a Character

Language Arts 4/5

Hi l’m Mcbroom this is my biography . I jumped out of bed and started playing with the wind up chicken then I wound up too much and exploded into a million pieces. So I started reading my favourite book how to farm with farmer Bob. I liked the country. A couple of years later I moved to the country and had lots of children and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots. “OK OK” I think you get it now. But don’t forget I lots of children. but I got tricked and cheated but it ended up for good we had nice good soil on on our farm ,and as soon as you planted a thing the thing that you planted pops out full-grown. Once I planned it a pumpkin seed and it came right out and hit in the face and knocked me out. My favourite things to do we’re racing pumpkins and farming my favourite holiday isn’t a holiday for most people but mine was going to the fair and I liked it, Because I really ever got to go to the city and I still live there to this day. (oh and by the way my face is black and blue from pumpkins).

Week 16 – A New Tale

Abigail, Language Arts 3

Once upon a time a boy named Nathan wanted to get a dog. It was a sunny day. Nathan had a happy face and was whistling as he walked.

When he arrived at the pet store, he walked in happily. To his surprise everything was out of its cage. The bird had the fish in its claws. And the dogs were chasing the cats.

Nathan asked the storekeeper what was happening. The storekeeper answered him, “I will help you after you help me round up the animals and put them in their cages”.

“OK,” I said. “I will help.”

After they put the animals away in their cages, the store keeper told him what happened. “First a criminal came in and while I wasn’t looking he opened the cages and let the animals out. The animals running around and started chasing each other when you came.”

“I will help you,” I said, “if you let me keep all the animals.”

The storekeeper answered him, “I will let you keep them if you call the police and tell them to catch the criminal.”

“OK,” I said. “I will go call the police right now. While you are gone I will feed the animals.”

After he called the police and the criminal was caught, he helped clean up the mess. He was rich and didn’t care about how much it cost. He bought all the pets and went home happily.

The end.

Week 11 – The Cat Book

Sophia


Rachel the Cat went to the beach one day. She brought her boat and bucket along with her to the beach. She built a sandcastle with a moat around it. She wanted to float the boat in the moat.


But the moat did not have any water!


She realized she could use her bucket and fill it up with water to pour around the sandcastle in th moat.


She went to the water and filled her bucket up.


She happily went back to the castle. She was going so fast and wasn’t looking where she was going and there was an umbrella left on the ground.


She tripped on the umbrella and the bucket…

… fell on her head!

She filled up her bucket with water again and put her boat in it and it floated.

Week 10 – Grown-up Me

Sophia

When I grow up, I want to be a mom. I will get married and have seven children. I want to be a mom because I love children. I’m going to teach them, and make them learn Math, and let them learn Spelling, and go the store with them, and take them to InjaNation. When I am a mom, my children will clean up their own messes. If you got it out, you should clean it up.

Week 5 – How Do You Do That?

Sophia

First, you need some sliced bread, crunchy peanut butter, bananas and a butter knife.

Then, take a slice of bread, take a knife and dip it in the jar of peanut butter and take the knife out and spread the crunchy peanut butter on the bread with the knife.

Next, peel open a banana and slice some of the banana off. Take these pieces and lay it out row by row, four banana pieces on each row, on the slice of bread with the peanut butter.

When you’re done laying out the bananas on the bread, take another slice of bread and place it on top of the sliced bananas.

Now you have a Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich.

Then, eat it.

When you’re done, wash the dishes.
