MRS. DAVIDGE ' s 3D Our Wonderful Volcano. Our Trip to Nonsuch Island. When we got to Nonsuch Island we had to dock on a ship wreck and we had to walk up stairs. We went out for a tour. First we went to the fresh water pond and there was supposed to be the Yellow Crowned Night Heron but we did not see it. We saw the Red Mangrove in the salt water pond. Then we saw the cahow burrow and we went to the museum to see some pictures. Then we went back to the Biological Station. - Andrew Rego Longtails - Christopher Watson We saw the Olive Wood. Then we saw Cedar trees and then we saw the sage. Then we went to the beach and saw Sally Lightfoot. Then we saw Land Crabs holes. We saw the ghost crabs hole. Then we saw the scurvy grass. If you have scurvy you eat scurvy grass to make you better. We went to the cahow burrow. It was not a real one and we saw two longtails by the cliff. Then we went to the church and saw the pictures of a cahow. William took pictures of them. Then we went back to the boat. - Ryan Gaglio Nonsuch Island - (}ss I ' cmplclon We all made turtles Turtle Stories. Once there lived a turtle named David. One day David was hunting for food for his family. Suddenly David saw something and it looked like a jellyfish but it was a plastic bag. So David went to catch the jellyfish. David bit the plastic bag and swallowed a piece. David choked on it. The waves began to get big. The waves washed David on the shore. Soon some scientists came along and saw David. They ran over to David and looked at him. One of them said he s swallowed a piece of plastic bag we ' d better get him back to the lab. So the scientists took David back to the lab and when the scientists got back to the lab they had to do surgery on David. First they had to cut David open to get the piece of plastic out of David. When they finished the stitched David up again and the scientists put David back in the sea. When David woke up he couldn ' t remember anything. So David sent and told his family that they would have to have seagrass for supper. - Philip Wills Once upon a time there were some baby turtles in the bay so I went to get one of them so I could have one of them to keep.

- Jody Feldman Underwater - Nicholas In the forest In the middle of the deep forest there lived a man. He lived in a tent. There was a market not far from where the man lived. So when the man ran out of food he could go to the market. He lived in peace but then some greedy wolves found where he lived. One day a group of the wolves came to attack but the man took his gun and shot. It scared them off. Then the man told his friends the next time they attack the men could get them but they did attack that day. So all the men fired their guns and all of the wolves died. The man lived happily ever after. - Weslev Undo The Unicorn - Adrian Beasley When I Grow Up When I grow up I would like to be a policeman so I can catch robbers and stop people from going fast. I can go as fast as I like on my 750 so I can catch robbers from going fast on their bikes. Policeman give you money when you work for them. Policemen are nice men. Some times when you can ' t find your wallet you have to put your finger in ink so they can see your markings on your finger. They put your finger on a piece of paper so they see your markings on the paper. Some times police drive cars and police trucks and police bikes and police vans. - Nicholas Pewter In the Forest In the middle of a deep forest there lived a dragon and a prince. The dragon burned half the forest and the dragon was green with flashing scales and red eyes and spikes on his tail. The prince had silver armour. The dragon lived in a cave next to the water. The dragon fed on fish. The dragon and the Prince met. They had a fight and the prince won. - William Soares Living in the Forest In the middle of the forest there lived a man who had a donkey. The donkey ' s name was Number Six. One day they were out looking for a new camping place. Then they came across a river and the man washed himself. While he was washing Number Six went on his way. So the man had to go on foot. He found a place to sleep for the night but to his surprise when he woke he was surrounded by wolves. They fed him and he lived the rest of his life with the wolves. - Nicholas West The Big Boat - William Evans My Favourite Animals Some of my favourite animals are guinea pigs. I like them because they are cute. One of my 1 guinea pigs is white and brown and my other i guinea pig is black brown and white. The name of the brown and white one is Chipper. We call him Chipper because he eats a lot. My other one is Rosy. She likes to eat her food and she is very fat. We are going to breed them when it gets cooler. I want to keep all of them. We give them some nut sticks, veg- etables sticks and we always give them vita- mins so they will not get sick. - Kyle Parkin My Eastern Holiday On Saturday I went to the Maritime Museum with my friend Tony. Then we went to the beach and we fell in the water. We made a sand castle and then we went home, but first I had to take him home. Last Saturday I went to the beach with Neil and I chased Neil until he could not stand. Then I swam in my friends pool. - Charles Rawlins. The Cave One day I was walking along the beach with my friend. I said lets go swimming and my Mom said Yes. We went on the boat and we went where a cave was. Then we dove down where the cave was and we swam in the cave. We were digging and I hit a treasure box. We took it home and we were rich. My Mom bought ten boats and we had rubies silver and golden swords and golden armour. My Mom bought ten trucks and cars and bikes and she bought a 100 dollars toy for me. I bought my teacher Miss Thompson a new car for Easter day. - Stephen DeCouto When I Grow Up Once upon a time I was painting in the art museum when I saw a nice young lady. She said can I have one of your lovely pictures? She gave me five dollars and then I got back to work. Again the same lady came. I said what do you want now? So she said can I have another picture. So I gave her another picture. She gave me 8 dollars. I said this shop will be closed at seven o ' clock and so it did. - Jody Feldman 13

Pete had so much treasure that he buried it on the island of Bermuda. On top he planted a Cedar Tree. Then one day he was discovered by a gang of other pirates. They locked Pete up in a dungeon with Peter. Peter got up on the window and squeezed out of the bars and flew to Pete ' s best friend and said help, Pete is locked up. All Pete ' s friends surrounded the gang of pirates and tied them up. One of Pete ' s friends took the key to the dungeon and let Pete out. Pete went to find his treasure but then he found out that someone had stolen his treasure, soon Pete found out that pirate Jimmy had stolen it so he told his friends to find out where pirate Jimmy was. One day his friends came back with good news.

Nearby I saw his ship the Dagging Shark! Now I was mad, fire came out of my ears. I nearly blasted off. I went to his ship in my long boat raging with anger holding out my sword. I went to their cabin. Peeping threw the window I saw them counting my money! I crashed the door open with a slam and there was a big fight in the cabin. Then I came out with my treasure followed by people in black suits with black eyes and black bruises! - Tedros Robinson Pete the Black Pirate I ' m Pete the black pirate. I have a parrot called Stripe. He always flaps his wings and hits my ear. I was walking on a beach on Bermuda and it had lots of palm trees. Then I saw something shining in a box. I went closer. It was treasure. I tried to lift it up except it was too heavy so I buried it there. Then I planted a cedar tree on it. Then I went to look for more. But then I decided to go back and check my treasure. I looked for the cedar tree. I found a cedar tree and I dug a big hole down deep. I didn ' t find it and all my strength was gone. Then I realized it was the wrong tree. Then I saw the right cedar tree. My treasure was gone. Somebody took it. Who was it? They had better tell me or they will be hung by their feet. - Ronan Kane Sectaitr - Derick Wheeler 15
