Pushed or not?

Pushed or not? 

 Pig the pug recently fell out the window of his apartment complex on Wednesday. Trevor, the sausage dog saw it all unfold. Trevor said when we interviewed him… “I swear I did not push him! He was being very greedy and rude! He as been nasty to me for years. Never shares his toys and always gets me in trouble. He would not share with me so he gathered all of our toys and put them in one big pile and climbed to the top. Then he started wobbling, lost his balance and fell out the window.” 

 Pop and fizzle the twin cats next door, claim they heard pig telling Trevor not to push him out the window. We secretly attached microphones to their clothing and what we heard was crazy! “Great job. I think we really fooled the press” Is this the answer to the investigation or are they telling lies? 

The question is “Did he really just fall?” Was he pushed? What was Trevor's drive for this crime? And is Trevor really as innocent as he claims?

Once Bitten

WALT: Identify complex themes and ideas in the text.

Last week we read a story called once bitten. It is a out a boy who earned some money from the paper run and so he went to spend it at the coffee bar. He bought himself some food containing a muesli bar. He put it in his pocket and went to sit down. Then he was called to collect his milkshake and he saw a bikie eating his muesli bar. He got mad and started eating it to. Then he got to the bus stop and found his muesli bar. He felt guilty and ashamed.

So one of the activities was to write a note to the bikie apologizing for eating his bar.

My Space

I love to calm down and chill in our schools prayer garden. Nobody runs through it. It is a no screaming zone. It is a very calm place and that is why I like it.

The House That Swayed

The house that swayed I walked up to the swaying house.
The wind was blowing my hair away from my face. I walked up to the door shaking and shivering
in fear. I walked up the stairs at the front door. I lightly knocked on the door. There was no answer. I slowly crept back down the stairs and out to the lawn only to see the door had started creaking open. I walked up to it a little quicker this time and walked inside.

 I looked around. There was a swirling staircase with a flickering chandelier hanging above. There were branches knocking at the door asking to come in. I lightly walked up the stairs.

The house started swaying as I took one step at a time up the staircase. The old broken wood kept creaking as if it was telling me to go faster. Suddenly I got wafted with the stench of dead rats. I was shaking at this point. I could not do this anymore! I had to get out of here! I flew down the stairs and ran out the front door. It was pitch black and the only thing I could see was the flickering chandelier. The wind started to pick up. Then the house started swaying and waving goodbye.
