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 – Point of View Fairy Tale

I just woke up from a nap. I sniffed the air. I could smell a human. He was trying to steal my treasure! I was in a rage!

“You bad human” I shouted. “I will put you on the bbq now!”

He scrambled to a beanstalk. He began to climb it. I stomped toward him. He climbed faster. I Began to climb after him. He jumped down. He took out his axe! He swung it! I heard a cracking noise. I began to fall. My head hit against a rock. I began to see lights (I was unconscious.) When I woke up the human was gone and so was my gold. THE END

Week 15 – The Perfect Pet

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’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 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.

The End

Week 11 – Description: The Vikings

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

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.
