OMG! Disgusting! What has Mrs McG got us into AGAIN!!! Mrs McG gave us a big blob of this random ooze and what did I think straight away “Yuck” I thought I wasn't going to touch it but ended up touching the liquid.

OMG! The first thing I see Is a blob that looks like a squished pancake. All of a sudden it slowly very slowly started to turn into a big marble floating like a great big marble pool. I slowly put my pinky finger in the gooey substance,  I put more and more of my hand in it until my whole hand was in.It was so COOL! in the end?  I thought I am going to mush it around. WHAT! randomly I see it turning into liquid? It smelt like hand sanitizer and paint gross. Just wondering did this come out of Mrs McG nose?

All of a sudden I hear the squishiness coming together as I continue playing with it  I start hearing “eeeewwww” “Yuck” and “I ain’t touching that” It was funny.

The End was me feeling snotty, my tummy sink, and me having squashed snot in my hands.

My Profile

For this piece of work we had to create something about us. That tells other people what we like to do and have in our lives. We also had to tell others our personality.

When I saw the gooeyness inside of the tray I was wondering what has Mrs McG got us into?

It looked like I was about to squish my hands into a horrible looking substance. I was over thinking it like what if there was a worm what if there was some insects in it that would climb on our hands.

The goopy, gross ,greeny brown substance went all between my fingers. When it was sliding between my fingers In my group and around my group I was hearing lots of people saying “ewww” “yuck” and I am not touching that). I ended up saying those words. But in the end I ended up having fun. I made a gooey snowman It obviously needed a bath. It reminded me of when I was with my brother making a snowman and my brother was making a gooey one but when he needed one handful more of the gooey stuff he chucked it on me. Then I needed bath. The mucky muddy mud was horrible “Yuck”

Never Poem by Erika

L

I would  never eat  lollies like living Logan

I would never wear something with a  locket that lives in London

I would never buy lily a lovely life

I would never do a lucky literacy library choose

I would never go somewhere with lacy lollies and lockets

I would always like to think there were lots of lollies, love and life

And Promise to not lick lollies like it's the end of my life!!!

By Erika

Alliteration

This week for writing we had a task

To use alliteration what alliteration is it's where you use the same letter in a sentence like this lily loves literacy and the library when it's not locked on a lily pad so I choose the letter L and thanks for reading my lucky life poem!!!

That was Summer poem?

I remember smelling… the burning dark fire that was in the air

I remember tasting… that rich chocolate Ice Cream melting in my mouth

I remember seeing… those bright blue bubble waves rising to the shore

That was summer

I remember feeling… the soft sand in between my toes at the blue beach

I remember hearing.. the birds chirping right outside my window when I woke up

That was summer.
