The catch

This story is about a boy who is fishing for the whole town.

The boy was fishing for the whole town because it was the towns one hundred birthday. But since the boy was only 8, he could only fish in the small pond. The small pond only has tiny fish and the boy really wanted to catch a big fish... until one day when a fox jumped out of a gigantic bush.

The fox took the fish the boy caught. The boy was sad because it took him 30 minutes to catch it.

The boy was feeling angry, he was really angry. He thought that he could not catch the fox who had the fish he caught.

The fox ( who was reddish brown. It also had some white on it) took the tiny fish. The fox ran though the gigantic bush. The boy followed the fox because he was determined to get the tiny fish back. The boy followed the fox.

So the boy went through the bush. Then they ran through grass for 30 minutes. After that they climbed  up a really tall cliff. With only tiny pieces of rocks stuck to the side. ( It looks like a  rock-climbing wall ).

Then they ran through grass for another 30 minutes. Then they got to this gigantic river. The boy was amazed. But the fox threw the tiny fish into the pond. Then out of the water a huge fish jumped into the air. When the boy saw the huge fish, the boy really wanted to catch it.

The boy caught the fish and caught the tiny fish he got before. The boy gave the fox the tiny fish. The boy walked to the village with the fish. The whole village ate the fish. The boy was proud that he followed the fox.

The fox turned into gold dust and swift up into the sky were he belonged because the fox was a spirit.

My maths goal reflection

I have improved on my maths goal. But I'am just not there yet. I know I've almost got it.

Also when I did the maths test I got more right than wrong. 

That photo is only one of my maths goal. So I will also show you the other one

My reading reflection

My reading goal is accuracy. I had to work on two things. The first one is I can skip the word and come back to it when reading. And the second one is I can chunk letters and sounds based on patterns I know. I think I only need to work on, I can skip words and come back to it when reading.

My writing goal reflection

Writing reflection:

My writing goal is to edit my work. I think I have not achieved my writing goal yet because I forget to edit or check my work. Some punctuation I have no idea when to use it, or I put it in the wrong place. 

My key competency goal reflection

I have two key competency goals. The first one is I will keep my writing neat. And my second one is I will get to work.I get to work really well. But I don't write neatly. I only write neat sometimes. So I think I need to write neat more.

Clock-tower story!!!

Once upon a time there lived an ordinary girl named Diana and she loved to dance!  Then one day out of the blue a wizard came into their town, into Clock tower city, that is the town's name!

Everyone in the city was happy until that day. The wizard bossed everyone around. He made them do his chores, cook his food, clean his house, and build him a tower. It was hard work for everyone but one (him)! No one liked him! The wizard just got to rest. It was not fair!

Then suddenly Diana said "we hate our jobs". Everyone else followed Diana's words and they said it too! They all yelled with expression. They shouted at the top of their lungs. Then the wizard said "I will curse a spell on one of you. But for now I will go."

When the whole town was sleeping the wizard came back. It was for revenge! Then he said "I will curse Diana!" So when she was fast asleep the wizard took her. In the morning the people of the town said "where's Diana?" They looked every where but the clock tower. They could just not find her!

That night Diana found herself in the clock tower. Everything had stopped. Everything was black and white except for her. People were frozen. Diana saw her dress and saw that she had a giant cog stuck to the bottom of her skirt. Then she poked at the spinning thing on the clock in the tower. She noticed a piece was missing, so she started spinning there. Everything started working again so she stayed there!
