The Jungle - AJ (February)

I was going to a jungle with a big group of people. We were going to look for jungle animals. Faster than a jackrabbit, I saw a big heinous animal. I did not see what it was.

Five second later, I got lost in a big jungle. I was by myself. I went to go look for animals. First I saw a big and slimy black snake. I felt happy that I found a snake.

Next, I looked for more animals. I did not see any. Then I walked and I saw my group. I hope we go again and I wish I don’t get lost.

 

Lost in the Jungle - Ashely (February)

I was in a jungle safari. While we were looking for wild animals, I lost my group. I looked and wondered where to go. I looked side-to-side and front to back. I felt scared. My heart was pounding faster than a jackrabbit.

I walked in the yellow long wheat. I walked and walked. I soon was lost. The footprints of mine disappeared. I could not find my way back. Suddenly grey clouds rolled in the sky. Lightening flashed. I quickly went under a tree and covered myself with the leaves. The wind blew hard. Then raindrops fell. More and more raindrops came down. I fell asleep.

Finally, the wind stopped and the sun shined and a rainbow filled the sky. I ate the coconut I packed for a snack. I sat there and ate slowly, as slow as a turtle. Half was gone and I saved the rest.

Suddenly, “crick, crack, crick, crack!”. What could it be I thought? Rustle, rustle, rustle! “Buddy, Buddy!” a voice shouted. It seemed far away. In a split second, I knew it was my group. My group was opening their arms wide to hug me. I hugged my group. I wish I had never been lost. I felt happy to be back with my friendly group.

The Giant - Olivia (November)

A colossal giant stood before me. His teeth reminded me of a vast chocolate bar that had a few bites in it. His claws were the color of a weed that died two weeks ago. My hair stood on end while I was biting my nails. "Ooooooh," I muttered softly, "look at his ugly eyes staring at me." STOMP! STOMP! I guess he heard me. "Aaaaah," I declared. The whole forest could hear me.

The Giant - Alexander (November )

His eyes were as colossal as the sea. The giant's smelly feet seemed like a mountain to me. As he opened his gigantic mouth, I spied his heinous, yellow, rotten teeth. His dark brown clothes were ragged and torn. My knees were trembling. I was biting my fingernails. My teeth chattered like crazy. I was gasping for air!
