Week 30 – Blown Away

Once on a sunny day I saw a dog by the big who ate all the manna and dog food by my house. Then I saw a big airplane. I could hear what made the noise because my dog was barking because he was hungry. But then I noticed that the airplane was carrying a big wind mill. The airplane had scooped it up off the ground because it wanted the windmill to get more air up in the sky. The windmill cut down clouds with its big blades. It also split the sun in half. Then the windmill tried to cut me and my dog and my house in half but it couldn’t reach and I told him not to do that. Then the airplane engine flopped down and the windmill went right on top of my house. It was so heavy, it broke my house. Now I live in the windmill. I brought all my food in.

The End.

Week 29 – The Big Storm

I was right outside the church. As soon as I got out of the church it began raining. I didn’t get wet because I was under the shade as we go out. As soon as we got in the car I said, “Make it hail.” And it hailed. Hail is big pieces of ice that come from the clouds. It sounded like a big thunderstorm even though it was a rain and hail storm. Other people were scared and stayed inside the church but me and the other kids (Nathan, Gabriel, Abigail, Sophia, and me, Emily) did feel good because we were inside the car and we thought: the hail can’t get us. On the way back to our house, Gabriel said, “Emily is magic!” 

The End

PS I didn’t cause the hail, it just went down by itself.

Week 26 – Fairy Tale Smash-up

A smash up between Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood.

One day Little Red Riding Hood was baking a loaf of bread for Granny when the doorbell rang. Little Red Riding Hood had just put the loaf of bread in the oven and she went to go see who it was. Then she opened the door just a little bit and saw Snow White. Snow White said, “Please let me in, my step-mother, the Queen, is trying to kill me!” So Little Red Riding Hood said, “OK. I will let you in for a little bit. We’ll work together to get that Queen!”

Little Red Riding and Snow White went together to Granny’s house on the other side of the woods. They brought the loaf of bread for Granny. When Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood went in the room they found Snow White’s step-mother lying in the bed. Snow White said, “Granny! She looks like my step-mother.” The Queen tried to sound like Granny and said, “Please give me that loaf of bread.”

Little Red Riding Hood said, “Nope! I don’t think you’re Granny because you look like Snow White’s step-mother.” Then the Big Bad Wolf appeared from the closet. He said, “I want to eat you all up!”

Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood ran away and as they ran away they yelled “Help!” The Big Bad Wolf scraped the mean old step-mother with his claws. Then he bit off her head. That was the end of the mean old step-mother.

Then Little Red Riding Hood’s father came. He chopped off the wolf’s head with his axe. And they all lived happily ever after.

The End.

Week 24 – You are the Teacher!

Do you know how to brush your teeth? I can teach you how to brush your teeth. First, you get out your own toothbrush and the toothpaste. And then you squirt a little piece of toothpaste (about half a pea) on your toothbrush. Then you turn on the faucet and wet the toothpaste on the toothbrush. Then, you carefully brush your teeth: the top and bottom, your tongue, the bottom of your tongue, and under your tongue and the insides of your cheeks. You should brush your teeth after breakfast, lunch and dinner. You brush your teeth to get rid of the germs that put holes in your teeth and give you bad breath.  Everyone should brush their teeth. If you don’t know how to brush your teeth, your Mommy and Daddy will help you.

Week 23 – Finish the Story

Original story:
Bob and his mother need groceries. They need bananas, bread, and milk. They get in their car and drive to the grocery store. Bob pushes the cart and his mother gets the food.

Emily’s ending:
They buy the milk and eggs at Superstore but they need to go to Costco for the bananas and bread. So they went to Costco to get the bananas and bread. The bananas were in the first aisle, and the bread was in the second aisle. They needed those things to make a cake. Except for the bread. The bread was for peanut butter and cookie butter and cream cheese for breakfast, or egg salad at lunch. Then they drove home and Bob made a cake for his mothers birthday all by himself because because it was a surprise. They had eggs leftover because they bought a lot of eggs in a big carton and thy didn’t need it all for the cake. So they made egg salad for egg salad sandwiches for lunch.

Week 23 – An Odd Place to Surface

One day a boy was on his knees and hands and was looking from the door to his fish bowl. And he saw a sunken boat and there was a diver half way out of the fishbowl and half way in the fish bowl. One fish was swimming up and the other was pointing to a sunken boat. The diver was trying to get that boat because it was his boat before the fish could bite him.

Now, the diver was just a toy because he is so small. The boy came and turned a switch on the diver and it made him grab the boat and then the boy picked the diver up with the boat in his hand and he’s out! The diver got his boat. 

The End.

Week 22 – When I Was Sick

One time I got really sick and had trouble breathing. Daddy took me to the hospital and the doctors put a band on my finger to check my blood pressure. After that they gave me a puffer which helped me to breathe. I had pneumonia. I had to stay at the hospital and they didn’t let me go home. I got to ride in an ambulance in the night to another hospital. Lolo and Lola came to visit me. So did Tita Kakin and Tita Jessica and Tita Alyssa. And Uncle John. He played dots and boxes with me. Then Mommy and I rode an ambulance back to the kids’ hospital.  The doctors at the other hospital said the kids’ hospital was better for me, that’s why we took the ambulance back.  At the kids’ hospital, I had a button I could press and then the nurse would come and I would ask for a popsicle and she would ask “What colour would you like?” And first I picked a blue one and the next day I got a green one.  Ava and Mia came to visit me.  Tita Kakin and I played with play-doh and she helped me put a puzzle together.  Mom also stayed with me.  The nurses kept giving me the puffer until I could breathe better. When I was all better, my brothers and sisters came to visit me and pick me up and we went home together. Tita Jessica was already at our house and we played Trouble which she gave me at the hospital.

Week 21 – Story Elaboration

Bill climbed a hill. He saw a city below.

Bill climbed a hill by pulling on a string tied to a branch because the hill was a very steep hill. He climbed up when no one was looking. It took him just a short time to climb the hill because he used his string.

When he came to the top of the hill, he saw a city with a big sandbox in the middle with lots of children. There were two cities beside it with children running and some of them were playing leap-frog. This made one big, big, big city that was full of kids.
