The Haunted House

In a deep dark forest there was a big house. It looked like it was deserted so I went into the house. Suddenly some spikes popped up from the ground and a big flag came up. I heard some creaking floorboards. There was some music too. It was spooky. There was also a whole tomme of people there. They looked like pigs. Thery were friendly and the house was really big.

The Secret of the Wings

A girl went into the forest. She saw a tree with some apples. She took a bite from the apple tree.  Suddenly she felt something on her back. There were some wings on her back! She saw some footprints then she followed them. She saw a man. He was a wizard. She could keep the wings. She flew high and low and fast and all around different countries. She was so happy.

I went outside.I took a step in the grass. Something was changed. I had a lot of flowers. There was only a little bit of grass. "Oh no! There is a castle next to my house!"

My house is getting painted today. The painters came over. There were three of them. It smelt disgusting. It was noisy when they were trying to get the old paint off. It was annoying!

When I was getting dressed my brother was beating me up. I was shivering and shaking... I couldn't stop. He always does it. I couldn't breathe and my other brother does it too. My mum came along and said, "STOP!" Thank goodness for my mum. Afterwards, my mum gave me a lolly for being brave.

Drama in Room 3....

Kia Ora everyone,

We've been practising our improvisation skills and this week we're going to continue to practise them at home for homework.

We start with a simple sentence, called a sentence starter. Then we have to think of something to carry it on with.

For example, You are walking through an aquarium when....

Think of some exciting and interesting sentences to share with the class.

Thanks to those people who leave comments for us!
