The red balloon .

 A couple of weeks ago my class read a book about a unicorn this unicorn wanted to be a star so she pretended to be someone who she wasn't . Using this inspiration we created our own stories . Next time I will add in more at the end of the story . I enjoyed writing about a unique story of my own .
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a bright and sunny day in whangamata and a nice short man was handing out balloons . There was one special balloon in particular that everyone liked , it was the red one. He was a delight . He was tied to a sign so that he couldn’t fly away . But somehow he found a way . He flew high into the sky and swooped and swirled away into an adventure . He waved goodbye to his beloved friends . Then swooped into the distance . He was planning on only seeing the rest of the beach but then the wind pushed him all around the town . The wind died down and he thought he would make his way back to the little cart when suddenly, A big gush of wind made him float and float . Then he was asleep . Slowly drifting in the air , while he is soundly asleep .

He wakes up and finds himself staring at the eiffel tower watching people propose and tourists taking a billion photos . He finds himself staring at a little mini gift shop. Out of all the gift shops in paris he chose “ tout gratuitement ” which means everything for free in french . He of course thinking of his friends grabbed all the stuff that was on trend . He began to like it here but then of course a big gush of wind wooooooooshed him over the ocean halfway to america when suddenly he began to drop he dropped a few trinkets and began to float again he kept dropping them and dropping them then when he only had about three things in his hand he made it to america .

He drifts slowly in the hot texan breeze . Then sooner or later he drifts into Washington D.C. and finds himself at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave . The white house . he goes passed the high gates and finds himself staring into the eyes of president Donald . J . Trump . He got out of there as fast as he could . Before he popped me and made a tweet about it . I didn't know where I was going but I was . Before long I had fallen asleep and was drifting south and the wind was blowing me toward what looked like a little beach yes it was it was whangamata I was close to home . I grabbed all the little trinkets up in my hand and boosted toward the cart .

I’m back He yelled “ I’m Back “ but no-one seemed to care he was just there . when he got closer he saw the blue balloon on his sign the sign that was his he couldn’t believe his eyes . He went back to all the other balloons and they didn’t seem to care either . it was like they didn't want him back . when he got back he was secluded he felt very excluded he decided to give them gifts because he had nothing to do with the gifts .

Then he sat alone in fear that no-one would like him .

The girl who cried teacher .




A couple of weeks ago we read a book about a pug that lied . So using that as an inspiration we wrote stories about people that lied . Whilst doing this I enjoyed coming up with a unique catch and storyline . Next time I will write more

 The girl who cried Teacher

Alexis was a liar . She didn't care about others. She thought life was all fun and games . Alexis only lied about one thing and that was … when the teacher was coming !. As you know children like to talk a lot and when the teacher is gone it's their time to shine! Alexis was the lookout , She liked shouting across the room like a crazy person, in fact she loved it so much that she would do it even when it's unnecessary .

Sometimes the Teacher (Miss White)would leave for fifteen minutes at a time and every five minutes she would shout “THE TEACHER’S COMING” and then have a chuckle to herself . She would do this from dawn to dusk as she loved watching their faces go completely white like a ghost and then them going dead silent. Only to begin talking again seconds later . A Whole term went by and Alexis still lied. Her other classmates had another girl look out her name was Peyton, Peyton was always right on time.

One day Peyton was away : The class decided to trust in Alexis one more time. However … She tricked them, she waited and waited and before she was even there she shouted out “THE TEACHER’S COMING”  They went silent. Five minutes passed and no-one came.Five minutes later the teacher came back but just before that she shouted  “ ALERT ALERT EDUCATOR APPROACHING “ . They just laughed and continued to talk . She shouted again “ I’M SERIOUS SHE’S COMING “but... They just continued talking .
Just then she (The Teacher) stormed into the class that was “oh so perfect “ to the noise of screaming , yelling and laughing . “ what is wrong with you people “ she shouted at the top of her lungs . She gave them all detention for the whole week …
including the weekend .
Alexis got angry as she was supposed to go on a trip that weekend , she wondered to herself “ Why did no-one believe me ? “ It turns out she had said it out loud everyone yapped in her ear saying “ Because you lie all the time so we didn’t believe you “ .

From that day on Alexis stopped lying .
