I was listening to some music, headphones in my ears, furry blanket wrapped around me, when a vehicle pulled up in our driveway with a screech! I Climbed off the top bunk and went to go look through the peephole in our door, to see who it was. Slowly, I opened the door. “Clarie! Hop in!”, a voice said that sounded exactly like my fathers. The person owned a very fancy vehicle, just like my father’s as well. I went outside then… Wait. Back up . I had a thought. He rolled down the window and I saw that it was him. Then who was in the room? To be continued… 

  Narrative Planning Sheet L.I. - I am learning to plan for my writing. S. C. - Think about the beginning, middle, and end.            Draw/brainstorm my plan Beginning What happens at the beginning? Who are the main characters?  Where is it set? How are the characters feeling? We are eating pizza. Our cutlery goes missing At first, none of us noticed. But then Mum’s Diamond ring goes missing. She is very upset because it cost a fortune. I, on the other hand, was found on the lounge sofa, reading one of my favourite books after that delicious pepperoni pizza. Build up What happens next?

I appreciate you reading my letter. Thank you for giving me the advice to give Colleen a gift from the heart. It was a heart. Before I went, My sister said to wear this ridiculous party hat for the rest of the party.  I enjoyed going to Colleen's Birthday Party. We had so much fun on Colleen's Birthday. The first race we had was an all-out sprint, and my team came victorious!! Then we had races again, but instead of running, we had to hop on one foot. One foot? Anyway, my team won again. But then Mrs. Verigold said we had to hop, but I thought we were going to hop on both feet, so I questioned,’ On both feet?

If you don’t know me, I have an urge to become emperor of the world, just to banish music into the underworld, I hate music that much. People’s voices are music to my ears, whereas instruments, I think it just sounds like the atomic bomb.  I picked up speed pretty quickly, but a voice boomed out of an alleyway I was just about to pass. I slammed on my brakes, which caused me to go flying until a connection with the wall. I was already spooked, now hurt. Can this night get any worse? I wondered. For a second. Or two.
