Lock him in

Seeing the rusty gate!! BANG!! I hear a radio. Walking into the house and seeing Austin hiding in the corner of the couch. Shaking like he was in the house of doom. But he jumps up to say hello in a deep dark voice. I smell the dusty room and see cobwebs and 1000's of tiny bit and pieces on the floor. Getting dragged into both of the rooms by Austin and Nate. It feels like my bones were breaking. I hear them saying "Finn, Finn!" and they are both fighting over me. Lunchtime, smelling bacon and egg pie. Yum my favourite. The smell of ham, cheese and plump tomatoes.  "Let's fight"yells Austin. I yelp in reply. Fingers poke into my eyes like pins going into cotton. My eyes burn! Help I cry!

Winter Poem
The grey clouds hang in the sky like many balloons.

The cool wind races across my face.

My feet drag across the soggy, brown hills.

The brown leaves blaze across the wet fields.

As tears of rain drop onto my face.

On the Invader we saw Jack and Braith. Then Braith and I went on log ride again. After that we went on the Power Surge. Mum did a flip on the Power Surge. She was screaming! 

Then Braith's Dad, Braith and I went on the Corkscrew Roller Coaster I was feeling nervous we went upside down we went around the loop the loop.We went on the log ride again and again but then we went on the Bumper boats. Braith and I bumped into each other I didn't know how to ride it.Then Braith and I went on the bumper cars.

Little bro

Little Bro by Manning Skipper                                    

I read a story about a boy who was trying to fix his tyre and his little brother Billy was being annoying and ran way with his patches. He got angry with him and locked him out of the house. Billy was making silly faces at him through the window and he got really angry and lunged at his little brother through the window and broke the window.

He told Billy that he would give him two iceblocks and let him in if he didn't tell Mum and Dad. They put a bike by the window so it looked like the wind blew the bike over into the window. Mum and Dad believed the story and he helped his Dad fix the window.
