Room 4 Zoo Trip

It was a bright and sunny day. Mrs Thomson had said, “We are going on a zoo trip.” That was the day. 

When we were at the zoo, Mum had to take  Emily, Quinn, Laekin and me through the zoo.

When we got to the map, I asked to see the giraffes. Mum said, “Later, because the giraffes are at the end." so we went to see the spider monkeys. Swoop! One swooped past on a long rope.
After we saw the red pandas and the bird show, we went to the tall giraffes. I ran. A giraffe walked over to me because I had my giraffe hat on and I was standing on a big fence.

We then went to  go see the smelly grey rhino. Quinn really wanted to see it.The enclosure had a ground with branches.
We went to the classroom to learn about animals. I saw some fish and lots of dead animals. I looked up and I saw a skeleton of a horse. It was scary. 
I had fun at the zoo and I hope I can go back again.

The Rhino

It was a sunny afternoon. Anne and Rex decided to walk to the zoo to see some rhinos. They went to the rhino den.
Anne said, " I am going to take a selfie with the rhinos."
"Oh no, you don't," said Rex, "you will fall in."
"Well, I am going to take a selfie if you like it or not."
So she leaned back. 
Bang!! She dropped her phone. It hit her chest and down she went into the rhino den.

"REX HELP!!!!"

"Do not move!" said Rex, "or they will charge, and with one swipe of the horns, it will be the end."

"What do you mean by the end?" said Anne.

"You do not want know," he said . "I will go and find  a zookeeper."

"NO!! I will get in trouble if you do," she said. 
"OK. What should I do?"
"Go find a rope," said Anne, so Rex set off to find a rope. He looked everywhere but not in the zoo keepers' staff  room.
"I am going to have to sneak in," he said to himself. “Oh no, the door is locked, but a window is open.” 

He walked over to the open window and climbed inside. He looked on the soft old chair and found a long green rope. He quickly grabbed the rope and ran to his sister. "Here is the rope." 
He threw the rope down to Anne. She climbed out. 
"Thank you, Rex, you saved me. Let's go and get chocolate ice cream and forget about the incident."

Guy Fawkes

It was a cold Friday night. Our family decided to go to Guy's Guy Fawkes party. I was very bored because I was waiting for Paige to come.
When she got to the party, we ran to the bonfire, then we helped Guy set up the small fireworks. When finally the sky grew dark, the firemen came because they were crazy and we set them  off together.
Bang! The first one went off. 
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Another four colourful bright fireworks lit up the night sky. 
Quinn was screaming at me. A fire work hit my face. I said, "Whatever!" because I know it wasn't thrown because they set off in the sky, not on the ground.
Bang! Another six went off. Quinn was saying let's go under shelter. I screamed, "NO!!" because I wasn't scared.
When it was done, we were all screaming, "More! More! More!"  Would you be screaming more if you were there?
