Curious Thursday

In the mornings our teacher Mrs Grace has been putting videos that make our minds curious. Today we tried to do some of the things in the videos.

What I found challenging:
Was the marble run because the part in the run I was making wasn't working. I had to use a lot of perseverance.

What I found easier:
Having the freedom to take a break and try something new.

Snowman Invasion

It was evening when they came…

I had first seen them through the
sitting room window, as I peeked
out cautiously through a gap in the
curtains I saw them. Opening the
front door the white snowmen
were standing there as hard as
rock.I took a quick breath and
went to bed.I woke up I thought
I heard someone open the door.
I creped down stairs. My heart
was thumping ,my teddy in my
hand. I heard it again and again.
I saw light seeping under the door
someone came out.I fell down
the stairs a snowman heard me
fall. Then the lights turned out.
I thought I could escape.
But someone had put a sack over
my head I was taken
more like dragged away into the
night.I could barely see
the glow of a car's headlights
though the sack. I was put
in the car. Someone took the sack
of my head. There was
a figure like a woman then she spoke
“it’s okay darling it'll be alright!” the
woman said. It sounded like my aunt
Jill it was and my uncle Bill was driving.
But who's in the passenger seat?.
I asked my aunt she said it was
uncle Bill's mate john. She said that
the snowmen attacked the bar they
were at. They barely escaped
but my parents didn’t they had
been killed.I burst into tears, sobbing
into my handkerchief. Aunt Jill said “we
were in danger and we
had to run away to mexico’’. I hugged
my teddy tight. There was a cop up a
head uncle had forgot about the
border. He let us though he said “ that
we have to go further than Mexico
and we have to go to New Zealand!’’.
I finally fell asleep but i woke up to
knocking on the window it was snowman.
John got out was attacking the snowman
he was frozen. Uncle Bill started the car
and drove away. We got on a boat the
snowmen standing on the beach some
were more like puddles than snowman.
When we got to New Zealand
there was no accommodation.
For a few nights we were
sleeping on the streets.finally a spot
opened up in a hotel. When we found
out we sprinted all the way there
but we were to late someone got there
before us, but the hotel manager offered
a room in the attic. We exploded
with joy. We got the key and ran
up stairs and jumped on the bed straight away.

Get off the boat were stuck on a sandbar!” shouted dad.I climbed off the boat putting my toes in first then pulling them back out quickly “it’s freezing!” I yelped “get over it and help me push the boat”! Dad shouted. I climbed in pulling my shorts up. I pushed so hard, finally it was free. Dad yelled “get on the boat!”.Dad and I got on and started the engine. We couldn’t use the sail because there was no wind. it was night time. We had our pj's on .The wind was starting to pick up I climbed into bed the boat was rocking. I finally fall asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night. I grabbed my torch and went outside. I climbed off the boat onto the wharf. I gazed up at the stars. The full moon reflect it’s bright rays down on the water. I went back to bed with amazing view fresh in my mind.

Gorilla Man

Once upon a time lived a boy. This boy was very adventures he searched in caves and in abandoned houses. He was very naughty boy. He ditched school and Stayed up all night.

He lived in a small cottage near the beach. behind his house is a huge cave it goes back for miles. his house has got two small rooms ones his and the others is his mum. He live with his mum his dad is  dead.
Before his dad died he lived in an apartment building with everything he wanted. But one day his dad didn’t come home.he was in an oil spill incident at work and drowned in it
One day he was in town hoping to steal some lollies. Then a lady  stopped him and said “are you the person that lives in the house near the haunted cave?”. “I live near a cave i don’t know that it's haunted, hows it haunted?”.
well a long time ago a boy went in there and then there was a scream. I could hear footsteps loud ones. Coming closer and closer. I looked behind me there was a huge monster thing. Half man half gorilla. They call him Gorilla Man!. the boy never came out again. Some think he turned in to gorilla man. Some think he got eaten by the  gorilla man and the gorilla came out to make sure no one would come in.
So as he was he went in. not believing what the lady said. But he never came out. But the gorilla man did.  No one knows whether he’s the gorilla man. Or the gorilla man came out to scare the daring boys, girls and the creepy old men.

Revenege

There was a knock on the door.It was the prime minister my arch enemy. With a present in his hands he said “happy birthday!” in his fake nice voice.He gave it to me. I slammed the door right in his face. I open it ancis. I thought it was a trap no i knew it was a trap. It was organs wrapped in tin foil. I spent that night pondering on my next attack.

You probably wonder why were enemies well i will tell you. We were at a hot dog eating competition we had 10 hot dogs the first to finish in 30 minutes wins. The Winner gets ten thousand dollars. i had one left there was 1 minute left on the clock then he yelled “done!”.i was devastated.

now my plan was finished. I sent him an email saying… you’ve been warned this santa parade i’m letting of a bomb at your stand you better be there.

It was the day of the santa parade.my enraged ape by my side. I realised the prime minister isn't here. I said attack my ape charged killing all the santas except one it was the prime minister. I Tackled him to the ground  and challenged him to joust of and I pick your horse or I kill you. He chose the jousting. “Your horse is my small horse!”. Now I've got revenge on my small horse.

It was the day of the joust. I was grooming my horse everyone was there. I got on my horse  my sword in my hand the ref said go I charged and won. I don’t know how it happened. When I open my eyes he was on the ground. I won I'm now the prime minister.

on oh geogre

Don't be fooled by georges sad face he is sly little
trickster. His big long snout sniff out the food he's
not meant to eat. His big droopy ears are the key
\to his disguise .his deep purple fur keeps him warm.
His big eyes scan the area for his next meal.

George is cheeky dog .he never does what hes told.
always try to be good but fails.Because he is tempted very
very easily. He is always hungry searching through
the rubbish bins for food.

George spends his time … digging holes in the soil trying
to find his bone.searching for cake. Looking for animals
to chase.  he loves to chase cats. He always knows when
he's in trouble.he also digs through the rubbish.

beyond the lines

It was 25th of April 1915. I was on the boat freezing to death.I felt a little bit of body warmth left in me. I saw someone fall overboard. I heard gunshots of war ahead. I Could feel my chest shaking. As we hit the beach there was a big bang. It made my ears ring.the commander yelled RUN!. as i started running i dropped my gun  then grabbed it.I saw my friends and fellow men falling to the ground yelling for help then i was alone and scared . I felt as though I was on deserted island on my own stranded

burma track camp memoir

It was  a dark walk down the stairs …

As we walked down the concrete slide stairs, Amelia was grabbing my
arm and shrieking in fear. As we got to the start, Mrs Pavitt said “Who
is going first ?” I put my hand up and Mrs Pavitt picked my group.

As I grabbed onto the rope I started walking. Amelia yelled out “Where
are you Becky?” I kept walking, then it happened. Someone or
something grabbed my foot.  I shrieked! Then someone threw dirt at
my feet.

Everyone was screaming, I was nearly deaf, Then Ray yelled out
“Get your butts down here!” There was a foot hanging on a tree,
Brooke screamed.

As I came out of the bush, everyone was crying.  I could see the fear
in their eyes, as I saw tears in everyone's eyes. I could see them in
the trees, shaking with fear.
