If the Dinosaurs Came Back
by Miss Hendry's class
Miss Hendry's class read the
story "If The Dinosaurs Came Back" by Bernard Waber. This is how
some of her students think the dinosaurs could help us.
| If the dinosaurs came back they could get cats out of trees. | If the dinosaurs came back we wouldn't have to rake leaves. |
 |
 |
| If the dinosaurs came back they could help sick people go to the hospital. | If the dinosaurs came back they could help me hang up the banner. |

If I were a leprechaun...
by Mrs. Kaye's class
| If I were the size of a leprechaun I would trick people because I will put fake gold into their bucket. Then I would put candy into their wallet. The candy would look like the gold but it is candy. |
If I were the size of a leprechaun I would
laugh at people and trick people when they play basketball. I will
hide the ball in a cat box. by Leedrue |

The Backyard Camping Trip
by Mrs. Laskowski's class
|
One Saturday last summer Brian and his sister, Cindy, decided to go
camping in the woods. His sister Cindy was a sensitive, pretty 11
year old girl. Their parents gave them permission to set up a tent
in their backyard which was wooded. They wouldn't allow the children
to camp alone in the woods. Around 6:00 pm, Brian and Cindy set up the tent and gathered wood to build a small campfire. They cooked hot dogs and toasted marshmallows over the fire. After telling some scary stories, they decided to go to sleep in the tent. Around midnight, they were awakened by a strange noise. They were especially frightened because they had told scary stories before |
bedtime.
The children peeked out of the tent and shined a flashlight into the trees
where the noise was coming from. To their relief, the noise was coming from a skunk eating the left over hot dogs. The skunk became scared and sprayed the children. They ran screaming and crying into the house. Their screaming woke up their parents. Their mom asked, "What happened?" Their dad asked, "What's that horrible smell?" The children explained that they had gotten sprayed by a skunk. Their parents yelled, "Go take a bath!" Brian and Cindy took a bath in tomato juice. They decided that was the end of their camping trip for the night and slept inside. |
