A Wonderful Day At The Zoo

9/12/14 A Wonderful Day at the Zoo Xavier

It was a sunny morning. My whole class was going to the zoo because we got all the marbles in the jar and, if we got all the marbles in the jar our whole class would go to the zoo. I went with Joshua, Devyn, Jayden and Bill.

When we got there, I saw the birds they were furry and white and they were flapping around and trying to poke our fingers then the zoo keeper went in and fed them and patted them. Devyn said ,”Don’t let them eat your fingers.”

Then we carried on and I had do this answer sheet and it was white and black and, at the same time, we looked at the animals.
  

Next we went to the monkeys enclosure and the monkeys looked furry and brown. They were swinging around. They had a fight and then Devyn said,”there is a big mouse down there.”I looked at the mouse. It was huge. I thought that it was a possum.
 

Finally, we went to the Education classroom. It had tiger fur on the wall and dead crocodiles. Also there were bones from cows or deers and some animals that have become extinct and peacocks’ feathers. I thought that it was kinda cool but very sad for the animals. An education teacher told us how many animals are in the world and, after we had a chance to go around the classroom. There was a very hard plastic box that was clawed by the tiger.

Next ,we had to go back to school but Bill said,”You can have an ice block. Joshua, Jayden and I got the same thing but Devyn got a ice block.

Sunny Side Zoo

It was a sunny afternoon. It was nearly time to go but Bob was thirsty so he asked his mum if he could buy a drink and stand next to the tiger cage. Mum said,”Ahhh ok”,so Bob went to buy a drink then he went to the tiger cage and drunk it. While he watched the tiger walk around, he was tapping the hard window but he dropped his drink. He started to reach for it but he bumped the window and it made a crack. The tiger got angry so it ran to where the noise was coming from. It found the noise so the tiger ran at the window and smashed it. Everyone ran away,screaming. Bob was the last one to run away from the tiger. The tiger was trying to climb out. It went around looking for food. When Bob got to where his mum was, he told her, "I accidentally made the tiger break the window." Mum said, ”What!”She told the zoo keepers that the tiger had escaped. The zoo keepers made sure that everyone was back at the start. When everyone got to the entrance of the zoo, the zoo keepers put traps in every place that the tiger could come through. They waited. It finally came and everyone saw it running. It ran but it the couldn't get out so the zoo keepers got something to get it back to its cage. Bob's mum said,”Next time we come to the zoo, you're not allowed to stand next to the tigers cage and have a drink,” so they went to their car and drove off home.

Fireworks Night

On Friday , I was going to put on some fireworks and a bonfire. We were also putting on some sparklers. Jayden and Joshua came as well and everyone had to wait for a while. Heaps of people, came and, before that, Joshua, Jayden and I were on Joshua's ipad and they started to fight a lot for how much minutes we had. I just said, "I'm not in this." I walked away to watch Lucian because he was playing on the Play Station three. 

It was finally time to have a bonfire. I was excited. Everyone got a chair and a stick. The sticks were for the fire. People started to put their sticks in and pretended that they had a torch. 

While we had a bonfire, my dad lit the fireworks. They shot up like crazy. They scattered everywhere. Some people and I got a fright. They sparkled brightly. After that, we got sparklers. They lasted for about thirty seconds. I didn't like them but my dad was still lighting the fireworks. 

After that, everyone left, but Jayden and Joshua were the only ones who stayed the night. We stayed up until four in the morning. Joshua went to sleep at one in the morning.

I can't wait for another Guy Fawkes night.

Exploding Birthday

On Saturday night, we let off some fireworks on the field.
When we got to the fireworks, the box was already opened and there were heaps of fireworks. 
Next, we lit them and there was a remote control to it. Next, we pressed a button then the fireworks shot up like crazy. They exploded in the cold air and they were so loud I felt like I would be death after that. They shot very fast in the air and they sparkled very brightly. Some people got a fright and the fireworks started to change colour and scattered everywhere and they got brighter and brighter. 
I can’t wait for some more fireworks. I hope we will have some more later.
