This is very exciting and I am so looking forward to doing the pack. I am going on a vacation to England to find my fav English teacher, Jessica.
I hauled my heavy suitcase up the stairs, and then, into my secret room. Soon, I packed my things, had mommy as a companion, my sister as an opponent, the fastest to finish packing wins.
I quickly stuffed my belongings into the huge luggage and when I finished… ‘DONE!’ I screamed, I won, looking flamboyantly, my sister, Abi, lost dignifying.
When I heard the news that we had to cancel out the trip, I grieved for a whole hour. I was miserable. I really was sad, I am not being emotional… first to ask doctors how to make sick people recover.
To fix this problem, I asked why. They said it was because another person caught Covid-19 after the whole Hong Kong recovered.
I tried my best to go back into time, the past, when it was just a few cases per day. I went downstairs, ran backwards, and reversed everything, WHAO! It worked! I made posters and convinced everyone to wear masks. I told them what might happen afterwards.
Almost everyone listened. The doctors of course did not know how to recover for the infected people. I told them to try, and it worked.
Now to get back to the real world. I ran, ran, ran, ran and finally, it was our vacay day. I asked them, could we go now?
‘Sure, darling.’ They answered.
‘I’ll tell you the true story…

Kesuke’s Kingdom lesson 3 hw
It was a lovely week and it was extrordinary to move on to the next day. Today, me and my pup-poodle-puppy went to Scavenge. I caught a deer in the woods, and my poodle-pup-doggy chased a mountain goat on the tall cliffs. I felt proud, but in the inner me, I know I am not this person. I knew I loved animals… why am I doing this? Am I dead and changed to another person? I was absolutely bemused! I couldn’t stop myself, but I started cackling. After, I don’t know why, I just started to hunt occasionally. Then there was music… mysterious music… I was haunted! Suddenly, my eyes opened, and a sizeable eye was looking down at me… it looked recognizable, it looked rather like my pup-poodle-doggy… wait, that is actually my sister?! To me, that was the worst nightmare that would make me dread the night and don’t know how, love daytime.
Then I thought… day is here! Listlessly, I hopped out of bed, jumped into my clothes sayin’ TGIF, standing for thank God it’s Friday, at the same time, my sister Abi was having a flounder in her blanket, which made me laugh my head off my body and my heart bounce out of my cute little proud person.
By the way, the ghostly sound was akwardly made out of my pup-poodle-doggy.

Yesterday I was very exhausted so I asked her if she can hug me, my mum felt interrupted and complained but anyway she did hug me. Sometime when people feel disturbed, they might get annoyed but my mum loves me, so my mum won’t get to annoyed
I particularly love to eat chocolate cookies so I asked my mum if she could buy me one for dessert and she said yes!!

There was a pathway to a secret garden or I can say forest…it was very shallow with lot’s of smoke. I panicked a lot and btw’s did I mention that I was scared of darkness? Well anyway i heard something up a head my way it was like a ghost movement but then I thought, how in the world will there even be ghosts, ghosts dose not even exist?!? suddenly I heard someone it’s really someone whistling in the darkness. Well at least I took my teddy bear with me but without a notice, where is my lovely teddy bear?!? this place must be hunted…but then I saw a white shadow it was really a ghost and I had no idea that it can say HELLO?!? I didn’t want her or he to be mad and whatever scare me so I replied hello? But I had again no idea there was another ghost I can’t resist this so I ran away so far so far but I CANNOT BELIEVE IT, THE GHOST IS SO FAST, on my half way the two ghost cached up to me!!! The distant was so close. I was screaming half to death but the thing I didn’t realise is that the ghost are nice they won’t hart you, but I didn’t believe what my inside said so I kept on running.
When I got to a dead end I was so exhausted and it felt like that I was crowded by ghosts. But what I realize was that I wasn’t crowed by those white floating ghosts. There was a lot a suffering inside me but I still had that strength in me…I was stuck in this creepy forest, I felt very miserable. It looked like to me that I was very irresponsible, I was supposed to look after my home and I ended up here…

A whole in my garden was very strange there was a lot of dirt and bugs which I hate. I was very very annoyed by all those bugs that nearly went onto my arms. At the end of the whole I was at another garden which is more amazing then my garden there were about 20 kinds of flowers, I pinched myself to see if I was daydreaming or was I really in this place…but guess what I was not daydreaming I was really here, this is so strange, am I in a different world or did I travel back in time? I walked around the garden and I saw a forbidden tombstone, it was so dirty. I accidentally knocked down a special flower pot and I had to compensation to the person that kept this flower pot. There was a little house, inside was decorated beautifully.

Lesson 3
I THINK THAT THE ENDING IS GOOD BECAUSE IF THE CAT
SURVIVED AGAIN IN WW2 OR WW3 HE Would be IMMORTAL .
SO IF SHE (THE CAT ) SURVIVES ANOTHER WAR HE WOULD BE IMMORTAL BECAUSE HE SURVIVED 2 WARS. AND IF HE DIES IN WW10 OR SOMETHING,
IT’S THE END.BUT IF SHE IS LUCKY SHE MIGHT SURVIVE 19 WARS SHE IS THE CHAMPION.

My friend was going pee in the bushes when I stopped her, I suggested that she should take a long walk instead of making the flowers and plants die and so she is a little more sensible. When she came back she ignored every word I said because she was mad at me for telling her that she was not very sensible, after a while she immediately forced me to buy her a ice cream since I was being mean (Which I was not) but sadly this is the only option that will make her happy so I had to spend all my money…

The part in long way home that I liked the best was when Mrs Tomas told Gorge that he had to move to a new foster home and when gorge got there because I liked how the author showed Gorges feelings and how he reacts to his new house.

One summer afternoon, I heard the lovely birds humming. On the corner of the long street, a little kitty was tangled by her toy strings…The awesome thing about the kitty was that it was kinda camouflaged by the walls colour!!The sun was to bright that I had to go home without even going to the park…): When I got home my mum asked me what I did and I had to be honest about it, and by the ways MY MUM WAS GLAD!

Beautiful work, Angela!
This is an excellent piece of writing. You have used the words that we learned in this lesson really well and have done some really beautiful descriptions.
To improve, you could have a go at using some techniques such as metaphor and similes.

On a dark stormy night, wait…have you ever heard of the ghost island before? The name already makes me fear. So, it all started like this. I was on a boat, ready for an amazing adventure when suddenly the boat STOPPED. [dung, dung, dung] The boat manager demanded: “All crewmates off the boat!!”… It seemed that we stopped at a foggy, spooky, all the scary words you can think of, I froze. I panicked for a minute then something came into my ear, I heard a sound. I thought and thought and something more horrible came into my MIND, THIS MIGHT BE THE ISLAND THAT WAS ON THE NEWS…GHOST ISLAND.

Lovely work, Angela!
This is an incredibly exciting and imaginative story. You have done a wonderful job at taking inspiration from the text and the descriptions you give of the settings, in particular, are wonderful.
To improve, you could also give a little bit more information about the characters (i.e. what does the boat manager look like).

This is an incredible piece of writing. You have been hugely inventive and the way you have incorporated current affairs into the story is very clever. The diary format that you have used to structure your work is also very impressive.
To improve, you could also think about how you could describe your characters a little more (i.e. talk about what they look like, how they talk).

Why the Whales came
Lesson 3
I was stranded on the Island of Ice and was scared. I was clumsy when walking on the ice, heading for help. Soon, I found out that there were bobbits around. They were giant carnivorous ice worms, and would eat any unlucky ice inhabitant who happened to cross the path of it. Then I heard a gurgling sound. A bobbit was laughing at me because to him, I was pathetic on walking the ice slipping and sliding. Well, I turned to him and said: Mister Bobbit, do you know a help centre that I could get help from? I asked the bobbit. The bobbit said nothing. I went away, seeing my face was pale and shaking. But, soon I met ice penpigs who showed me the way to their spaceship. I gave them a signal that I was going, and they replied: ok, farewell, see you next time. Then I zoomed away in their spaceship. Suddenly, I went off control and lost communication with Earth. I cursed in fury. But, a portal appeared and I was sucked in back to reality. Then, I woke up to find it had been a dream, then I was glad.

I liked the part where Daniel and Gracie first met the birdman because it’s super-duper exciting.
-
at 02:57 #10409Angela WuParticipant
My favourite part of the story was when bird man was helping the two kids when the whale was on the sand because i think now that the reader read this part they know that everyone had mistaken bird man as a bad guy but now they all realised that they were wrong about him.

Fab work, Angela!
This is a really interesting section of the book to pick as your favourite. You have given a particularly wonderful description of what happens in this section, which really helps the reader understand your view.
To improve, you could also write a little bit more about how this part makes you feel (i.e. nervous, happy).

My favourite 🤩 part of The book is when the birdman
change to a good Guy because it is VeRy strange. In some
movies,🖼 some. Villains become Good guys but
the bird man is not that strange.

Why the Whales Came
Lesson 3
It was a chilly night out in the streets. I was walking back home when I heard a scream. I rushed to check what happened, but it was too late. A murder had been committed and the body was lying on the floor, or at least the remnants of what had been of the body just a few minutes ago. My face was pale and shaking when I dialled the police. My voice clearly showed it too.
The police asked me what happened and I explained the crime in a few sentences then I went to the scene again. The police showed up just a few moments later and said, where is the body? I said, here it is. And the murderer is just over there. A horse, of all things!,cried the police in surprise. Well, it was done in self-defence because the guy who is lying on the floor tried to cut the horse. I said. Case solved, I went home to a excellent dinner.

Lovely work, Caleb!
This is a brilliant piece of writing. You have done a fantastic job of really exciting the reader and making them want to read on. The ending of the story is particularly fun!
To improve, you could also try adding in some speech marks when characters are talking to show off your ability touse different kinds of punctuation.

I think the writer excites the reader by not telling them what’s happening in the start so let the reader carry on reading with more excitement.
-
at 16:43 #11892JessicaParticipant
Nice work, Rain!
This is a very good response; you have considered how the author holds back information to make the reader want to read on and discover the answers to the questions this raises.
To improve, you could also think about how the writer uses danger, humour, and illustrations to excite the reader too.

I am Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third and the heir of the Hooligan tribe. To be a hero like me you will first need to be good at sword fighting and know how to speak dragonese and lots of language, be good to your dragon, don’t shout at them. (Don’t really know how to write it sorry)
-
at 16:46 #11893JessicaParticipant
Lovely work, Rain!
This is a very fun and exciting response. You have captured the essence of Hiccup’s character really well and have done a great job at creating lots of excitement for the reader.
To improve, you could also refer to some of the other characters in the book to root your piece in the world of the book more.

My favorite character is Hiccup ( full name is Hiccup horrendous Haddock the third ), because he is the main character of the story. Normally, the writer will write and describe more about the main character, and I think hiccup is brave and loves to study, so, he is my favorite character of the story.
-
at 16:47 #11895JessicaParticipant
Good job, Rain!
You have picked a great character as your favorite. The explanation you give to explain your choice is great and you have used some very helpful adjectives.
To improve, you could find some quotes from the text which show the reader how his character is described in the book.

I think the writer of How To Train Your Dragon makes the first few chapters exciting is because he didn’t tell you what they’re doing and what’s happening so the reader will love to carry on reading and will be very excited while reading because they won’t know what’s happening next.
