Our Stories

Room 11 are learning to write stories using their imagination. They planned who their characters were, the setting, the problem and the solution. Here is their first attempt. I think they did an awesome job!

He caught mermaid Lily. He went back to his seaweed home. He put her in the cage. It was morning time. Kamy looked around. No-one was there. He went to Piny’s house. He told Piny what happened. She told everyone, but everyone did not know. Last she came to Kamy. He now noticed where she was. She asked him. Lily was in the seaweed house where the wicked sea monster lives. They rushed to his house. They hid. They quickly got to Lily and tried to find the key. They finally found it. She opened the door. They quickly ran out and went back to their house.
