Gertie the Gloomy Goose

Our spellings this week have focused on the oo sound. Our text on Monday was Gertie the Gloomy Goose.

One afternoon Hugh was watching a cartoon called Gertie the Gloomy Goose. Gertie flew smoothly through Blackpool on a broom when she toppled over fell and bruised her knee. In rage she took off her shoe and threw it at a musician who was playing a flute. He stood up, shook his fist at Gertie, smoothed down his suit and continued playing. It would take more than a bruise caused by a goose on a broom to stop a true flute player.

You know the drill by now - post your text as a comment, check punctuation and spelling. Remember to print out a copy so we can share them in class tomorrow morning after assembly.

There once was a school who's motto was try to be luckier than a horseshoe!!Once in the dinner hall when they were in a queue for their stew someone threw a blue glue and hit them on the shoe and guess what they didn't argue they just stood there looking like one of those cues you get when you play pool!It looked cruel!But they had an improvement they put shampoo on the teacher's wooden suit and when he stood up he found it unsuitable!!!

My Shampoo Disaster

Today when I went to the shop I bought a bottle of shampoo and a tube of toothpaste. When I got home I found that the shampoo had leaked over everything, my toothpaste and everthing! I thought it was cruel and not suitable that the shop had sold me a leaking shampoo bottle. I took it back with proof that it was leaking and I got a refund and one that wasn't leaking.

THE
END!

I got up thismorning and picked up the toothpaste and brushed my teeth. I then had to pick up the shampoo to wash my hair. I then had to choose whether I wanted to go to the pool or go canoing,in the end I dicided to go canoing. Tomorrow my mum and dad are going on a cruise in the moonlight. I cant realy argue with anyone about where we're going because im at school tomorrow.

“Whoopee!” I shouted as I started to pack my suitcase for my holiday. I was going on a cruise on Tuesday. I had to choose suitable clothes for the route we were taking. My new suit went into the suitcase first, along with the wooden coat hanger. “Don’t forget your shampoo and toothpaste,” called mum from the living room. “Mum, do you have my identity proof document?” I asked. Soon it was time to go. At the harbour there was a queue to board. The sea looked very blue and calm with a little movement of the waves. Just as the moon came out a whistle blew and we were off on our cruise. “No school for two weeks, I won’t argue with that!”I said as the waiter brought our first meal of stew followed by fruit.

School Today
Before I went to school I had my breakfast,washed my hair with blue shampoo and cleaned my teeth with a toothbrush. When I got to school I stood in a queue to buy fruit from the tuckshop. It took me a while to choose what I should buy then I chose an apple. At breaktime my friend blew bubbles and we had fun. At lunchtime I fell over and got a massive bruise on my head. I had an arguement with the girl who tripped me up. After school I went to canoeing lessons. My mum said that she saw a big improvement in my skills. Then my mum picked the easiest route for me to get home.
