Week 24 – Owl at Work

Abigail, Language Arts 2

Once upon a time Owl was going to the firehouse. Owl was going to be a firefighter. He had to learn how to be a firefighter so he went looking for the firefighters. Then he heard something and the sound was “Weeee oooooouuuuu, weeeee oooooouuuuuu.” He started following the sound. He found the sound and there were all the firefighters in the fire truck.

He yelled, “Wait for me, I’m a firefighter too.” The chief said, “You can’t come with us, your not trained and neither are you in your firefighter clothes.” Then Owl said, “You can teach me and I can come along with you.” Then the Chief said, “It’s an emergency and there is no time to teach you.”

At the building that was burning, Owl saw people screaming from the roof for help. Even though he was supposed to stay near the truck, he flew up and began to save the people. A child sat on his back, he held a baby from his beak and a mother and father sat on his wings.

Owl saved the day! The Chief was so surprised that he gave Owl his own fire suit and a medal.

Week 15 – Be Persuasive

Dear Mommy,

May you please bring me to Calaway Park, but not bring me to Timber Falls? I’m happy at Calaway Park. I like shooting at each other and going on the big swing. We can go there without paying because you just have to show your tickets. You can invite friends without cleaning the house. You can learn to drive cars. May you please bring me to Calaway Park?

Love,

Abigail

Week 15 – The Perfect Pet

Emily, Language Arts 1

My perfect pet would be a blue and purple striped cat. This cat would spend most of her time eating mice. But she’s afraid of dogs so I would shut the door if any dogs came and hold her until the dogs ran away. My favourite thing to do with the cat is play Hide and Seek, but it’s easy to find her because she always hides in the shed. I wish I really had this cat!

Week 12 – Chore Training

Sophia

Sophia’s instructions for Grandpa to clean up after we have to leave for a vacation right after supper!

First, clear the dishes from the table. They get put near the sink. Then wash the dishes. Then wipe the table with a wet cloth. Then sweep the floor around the table. Then clean up books and other stuff that are messy.

Week 12 – Imagination

Emily, Language Arts 1

Emily is the wife of Noah and it’s the night before the great flood.

I was helping to build the ark with Noah. It was nearly done and it was almost midnight. The ark is so big that you could fit every kind of animal. In a few minutes before midnight the ark was done. It was hard to see because it was so dark but animals were coming on the ark. I saw grizzly bears, giraffes, elephants, cheetahs, and dinosaurs. I knew they were there because they were making lots of noise and we brought in two of every animal.

I went to my room on the bottom floor. I had no blankets because we didn’t have time to get our blankets in our house. I curled up and went to sleep. When I woke up I heard the waters moving and I felt the boat moving. It was a good thing we had food! It rained for 40 days and 40 nights.

Week 11 – Description: The Vikings

Emily, Language Arts 1

Viking girls wore lots of pretty dresses. Eric the Red was the leader of the Vikings. Vikings ate reindeer and I would like to try some too. They travelled by boat and horse. I would love to travel by boat and horse. They traveled across oceans. First, they settled in Iceland and then they were chased from their land. Erik the Red’s wife and children, except for one son, were killed. They left Iceland and they discovered Greenland. Greenland was very cold because it is near the arctic.

I would like to live in Viking times because I get to travel by horses, I get to travel by boat, and I get to wear pretty dresses. I might not like eating food I don’t know about like reindeer meat or it might be too cold.

Week 10 – The Tall Tale

Abigail, Language Arts 2

Why is the sky blue?

A long time ago, the sky was just completely white. It had no other colors – no red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple or pink. So the Stephens kids decided to paint it. Joshua painted it all red. Sophia didn’t like that, so she painted the sky orange. Emily didn’t like that, so she painted the sky purple. Abigail didn’t like that, so she painted the sky pink. Gabe didn’t like that, so he painted the sky green. Nathan didn’t like that, so he painted the sky blue. There were no more kids, so the sky stayed blue.

The End.

How do you get ready to play in the snow? First, make sure you go to the bathroom, because you don’t want to pee in the snow. Next, put your snow pants on. Then put your jacket on. Then grab your toque and put it on. Make sure the back of the toque is on the back of your head. Then put your boots on, then put your mitts on. Now go outside and play in the snow.
