Hi Beth
Here is my homework for lesson 1 :In the book lamb to the slaughter, I think that it is a brilliant short story because it teaches you not to kill people with a lamb’s leg. Although it gives you a bad influence on murdering people, I still think that it is an amazing short story because it includes a lot of tension in the book and I think that the short story is still a good one.
I think that it is a really exciting short story because the author throws the action and Roald Dahl really knows how to include the action in his books. I also somehow recommend this short story to people who like murder mystery stories because it is Mary Maloney who kills Patrick Maloney because he said that he wanted to leave her. Surprisingly, he killed her by whacking a lamb’s leg on his head and then he fell on the floor on the carpet. The thing I didn’t really like about this story was why it had to be based on murder. I already know that all books can be different genres but I know that Roald Dahl is a brilliant author but he writes children’s books. Personally, (in my opinion) I do not think that this is very appropriate for children because it might make children try to whack their husband with a lamb’s leg in the future.
In shorter detail, I think that the author has tried to fit all of that tension and all of the exciting events in such a small book ( I definitely would not have been able to do that ) and I can tell that he has paid really close attention to every detail of the book. I would say that the short story is quite gothic because it includes romance and it is also quite scary ( which is what the word gothic kind of reminds me of ) and it includes loads of mystery
Thank you

This week’s homework;
Amelia – You’ve got the wrong person! It wasn’t me !
Author – But you were the only person that was in the living room which was where I left my phone
Maudie – Actually, it couldn’t have been Amelia because how would she have possibly known the password on your phone ?
Amelia – m hm
Author – Then who was it ?
Maudie – Winnie
Author – Winnie ?
Maudie – Winnie
Author – How ? I didn’t even invite her to my house or party and my party was when I left my phone.
Maudie – But remember , she came to your house to drop off your birthday cake and you went to ask your dad i9f you were allowed cake cake and then he said yes. Before Winny came to your house your phone was on the dining room table where you left it and after Winny left your house , your phone disappeared!
Author – And how do you know this ?
Maudie – because I was in your house for a sleepover when she left and I saw the phone on the table but then after , the phone was gone !
Amelia – Told you I didn’t do it

Also the week before that was :
Diary of a wimpy kid is when a 12 year old tells a story about his life in middle school and at home when in Horrible Histories, they have to act it out and it is much more dramatic than a diary of a wimpy kid. Diary of a wimpy kid is written in first person and the movie’s are in first person as well. As in horrible histories, it is shown and written in third person. I prefer diary of a wimpy kid more because i do not like learning about history because for example the stone age people would not like it if we were whispering about them behind their backs
sorry

Lasts weeks homework was :
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day, the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.
Finally the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.
The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, “You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won’t matter how many times you say I’m sorry. The wound is still there.”On a mango tree in a jungle, there lived many birds. They were happy in their small nests. Before the onset of the rainy season, all the animals of the jungle repaired their homes. The birds also made their homes more secure.
Many birds brought twigs and leaves and others wove their nests. “We should also store some food for our children,” chirped one of the birds. And they collected food, until they had enough to see them through the rainy season. They kept themselves busy preparing for the tough times.
Soon the rains came. It was followed by thunder and lighting. All the animals and birds stayed in their homes.
It continued raining for many days. One day, a monkey wet in the rain came into the forest. He sat on a branch, shivering with cold water dripping from its body.
The poor monkey tried his best to get shelter, but in vain. The leaves were not enough to save him from the rains. “Brrr! It is so cold!” said the monkey.
The birds were watching all this. They felt sorry for the monkey but there was little they could do for him. One of them said, “Brother! Our small nests are not enough to give you shelter.”
Another bird said, “All of us prepared for the rainy season. If you had, you would not be in this piteous situation.”
“How dare you tell me what to do?” said the monkey, growling at the bird. The monkey angrily pounced on the bird’s nest, tore it and threw it on the ground. The bird and her chicks were helpless.
The poor bird thought, “Fools never value a good advice. It is better not to advise them.”Jokes

So, ask me and I’ll tell you.
There is nothing I don’t know.
I’m certain my beliefs are facts.
They’re absolutely so.A chili pepper
I ate a chili pepper
on a lunch time dare
Sandy said I’d burn my mouth
but I didn’t care
I ate that chili pepper
And left not a seed to waste
And won that silly bet
But lost my sense of tasteDon’t be silly
Are there bugs that live on the moon
Can July come before June
Can the sun ever become cold
‘Don’t be silly’ I’m often toldSo why are things the way they are
Has it always been right from the start
Will Mickey mouse ever get old
