Piper And Holly

Piper and Holly were sisters and best friends. They loved to go on adventures. They lived in a forest and there were lots of trees all around them. Holly had brown hair and Piper had blonde hair. They loved playing in the forest. They lived in a wooden house.

One sunny Saturday morning, the two girls wandered their way through the forest. They heard a sound like a bird calling out for its mum cheep cheep. The kingfisher soundlessly flew across the forest. A baby kingfisher's mum was getting some worms for her babies. 

There was silence for a while but suddenly they heard squirrels squealing. They heard another sound the stream was splash splash over the rocks. A frog gently floating on a leaf downstream.

They were lost. They didn't know what path to go down. They were just about to go down the path but they heard their mum and dad calling out for them. Their mum and dad gave them a big hug and they said ''come on well take you home for a cup of hot chocolate''. 

You have used some great descriptive sentences in your story, including ‘activating the noun’. Well done.

Pet Day

WALT make up a story about a Pet Day problem.

WWBSWW:

• Begin with an orientation to tell the reader who, did what, where and when.

“Pet Day will be on Friday,” Miss Anderson, Tom’s teacher, announced to the class on Monday. “Bring your pet to school and tell us about it, then we will have a pet parade.”

Tom was so excited. He would be able to bring Harry to school to 

show everyone.

• Write the events leading up to the problem.

At the end of the day, he ran all the way home to get his pet ready for Friday.

He loved Harry and had wanted to show his friends for a long time, but his mum and dad had told him that Harry must never leave the house; but, now, his

teacher had given him permission to bring it to school.

Smilingly, he polished Harry’s green silky skin, talking to it with his friendly voice. “You’re allowed to come to school, Harry. You can meet my friends and my friends can meet you.”

As soon as Friday came around, Harry carefully took Harry out of its cage and placed him into his black backpack. He couldn’t wait to get to school, so he ran

all the way.

When the bell rang, he and the rest of the class stepped into the 

classroom.

• Write the problem.

Tom opened his backpack to show his friends what he had brought to school for Pet Day.

“It’s a green, slippery, slimey …...................” he said slowly. “Snake!” he 

shouted.

“Tom Denver, give me that thing right now!” Miss Anderson 

commanded.

Tom opened his hand to pass it over, but, at that moment, naughty Billy Burton lunged to grab it himself. He bumped Tom’s shoulder and Tom hurtled forward, the snake flying out of his hand to the back of the classroom.

“Eeeeeee! Where is it?” squealed Miss Anderson.

Chaos threatened in Room 4.  Children jumped up and ran around, screeching

their lungs out and pushing over chairs and desks, trying to find Tom’s snake.

• Write the events to tell your readers how the problem was solved.

They were screaming and running around the classroom, trying to find the snake.

The kids from the classroom gathered some things from around.

The class got some paper, scissors and glue.

Tom glued some sheets of paper together. He put some cords on the paper. They got Miss Anderson’s lunch.

Tom got the teacher’s sandwich. It had ham in it and he put the cage outside of the door and put the sandwich in the middle of the cage.

The snake went into the middle of the cage.

Finally, they caught the cage and he put it back in his bag.

Miss Anderson said, ''No one ever bring a snake to school again.”

Well done, Piper. Can you think of a better word than got.

The Magic Show

Yesterday, Mr Emms, our principal, said, "Today, there are going to be two magic shows." Our school went into the hall for the magic shows on Catholic Schools Day.


The first  magician we saw was Jonathan.  My favourite trick was when he told Riley he could  I make any animals in the world. He asked what Riley wanted. He said all different kinds of animals but he kept saying dog, but Riley wanted a giraffe and he said, "This is a giraffe that is going to a  party and he is going to get dressed up as a dog." Everyone laughed!

Once that show had finished, it was the next show. El Gregoe and his assistant set up. We all went into the hall.
El Gregoe said, "Let's start the show." 

His first trick was when he brought out his first bird. He said, "I hope she isn't silly like last time, swinging up and down," and she was. Everyone was laughing because  El Gregoe didn't  know that the bird was swinging up and down. 

He did lots more tricks, but there's too many to tell you.

The Birthday of the Church

Pentecost is the day when people started spreading the Good News about Jesus.
When Jesus rose again, he came and told his disciples to spread the Good News. The disciples were scared because they didn't want the guards to come and nail them to the cross like they did to Jesus. But Jesus gave them courage and strength to spread the Good News by sending the Holy Spirit down to them. They had flames on their heads.They were  all looking at each other's heads. There was wind blowing around them.

The Holy Spirit had come to them. They went out and started spreading the Good News. That was the first Pentecost. That was the birth of the Church.
