Challenge 6/17 - India | Grade 5

What is it?

I have a very special thing, not everybody has one but they are quite popular. They come in different sizes and shapes. Some are short and plump and some are tall and skinny. They are never the same as they’re  all different. They usually come in colours like brown, black, white, gray or golden. You give them a name that describes their personality or their character or give them a name that is very special to you. Some say that they’re  a mans best friend but some say that they’re not. But no matter what you do to them, they will always love you.

My special possession

I have a special possession, it is beautiful and cuddly. It has stars on its ears and beautiful eyes as   purple as the beautiful lavenders Miss Crous has in her class. It was with me at camp when I felt alone and my best friend grabbed it for me during the evacuation at camp. It has a heart that beats with complete joy. How I love its fluffy fur which is as fluffy as a cloud in the sky. It helps me feel better when I'm sad and it makes me feel secure. I will never ever separate from it!

Challenge 6/17 - Willow | Grade 4

Lots of people have one, everyone wants one but sadly some people don't.

You get large ones and small ones, rich ones and poor ones. Animals also have one.

Mine is crazy and sometimes funny and can it can be very annoying at times but I would not trade it for a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Mine can go through a lot of food within a week. I can not eat it but  I love to play and have fun with it. Every single one is different and unique - can you guess what it is?

My name is Lonnie, I love laughing! Unlike my brother though, he's sooo boring.

He doesn't even laugh when I tell him my best jokes! ( here's one: Why do candles go on top of a birthday cake? Because they can't go at the bottom! Ha Ha!)  I often take my pet fish for a swim or as humans say “for a walk”,  but, today was different. Fishy and I were swimming when we hit an ice-berg! I burst out laughing, silly me for not looking where I was going!

Challenge 4/17 - Rosie | Grade 6

The show must go on!

I simply couldn't believe it. First the sun was shining and the next it's pouring buckets! “We can't do it, we just can't. I haven't the money to rent a new stage.” My boss said, pacing up and down. “It just had to be outdoors.” I mumbled under my breath. “It was going to be so fantastical, so magical, so stunningly different, but then the weather changed dramatically!” My boss said, emphasizing every word. It’s true it was going to be precisely that, and I have a way to keep it like that. “The show must go on!”

An Idea

I am so excited because my family and I are going to the beach. I took sunblock, a beach ball and a small boat. When we got to the beach it was perfect and very sunny.My brother and I played volly ball, I won. But then the weather changed dramatically. It started to rain. Mom said, "we have to go home". That made me feel very sad. Then my brother came up with an idea, "we can play volly ball inside" I shouted yay! Then my mom made us a big rainbow cake.

Something's Coming!

It was a lovely peaceful day as the waves gently sprayed my face, “ lovely day for a sail, isn't it” said my cousin as he put up the sail on our tiny wooden boat. I put my hand in the pure blue water  “ I totally agree” I answered as I splashed him.

“ This is the life” but the weather changed dramatically, shocked my cousin looked into the sky. 

“SOMETHINGS  COMING”  the sky turned dark and thunder crashed, that something was still coming….

Ahhh!
