Witches
"Witches don't exist!" My gran's words echoed around my head as the horrific visage in my mind that a with was going to show up outside of my window.
But I knew that witches don't exist so I invited some of my friends to my house. There names are Bella, Trixie and Roxy and my name is Tereora we have been friends since kindergarten, but there has always been drama between us. When they all arrived at my house I showed them where we were going to sleep. When we were going to sleep I was thinking of a witch hopping up and scaring me, I was so afraid. It was even more spooky because we were telling each other scary storeys before bed time, but the most scary storey was Bella's, because her storey was about clowns and witches coming to your house and haunting you until you walk and they kill you and your family. I was getting really scared because I thought she was atuly telling a real storey. But the worst thing I couldn't stop thinking of the witch popping up in front of my window. But the next day all my friends went back home, and when I was not afraid anymore because, when we were telling each other storeys, I got use to it and I didn't feel scared anymore.
THE END

Camping in the forest
I saw her and then she was gone, I heard her whispering for me to follow. It only took me a few seconds for me to decide.. But in my head It atuly was hard because I didn't want to get lost. Hi my name is Teddy, and I am in the forest camping with my friends Ruby, Jess and Kasey. We have been friends for along time, okay lets skip to the good part… Ok I was very shocked because (Ruby) she was gone strat away when I was going to talk to her. I found a letter were she was sitting, It said " I just live a little less now, somewere a little else now, Still I hope you can hear me just like when you were near me ".
I felt like that was a clue to finding her, maybe she right some more notes to find her.
But i don't know what I am looking for. Maybe this is just a dream " waking myself to wake up ". But atuly I was sleep walking and sleep talking. I can't believe that I was doing all these things, but Ruby, Kasey and Jess are atuly my friends. THE END

Rocket
This year we are designing a rocket to blast off into the air. We have a person called Lincoln that comes into our class room and helps us with designing and planning. Today 8 June 2021, We are going to be making our actual rockets. My group has designed a really cool and awesome rocket that has all our designs on. My design was to put a flame down the bottom so when it goes up it looks like it has fire like when it actually blasts off. Hope I will post a another about how it went up .
