Vocab

I have been learning to increase my vocab. My vocab word this week is battered. I found the word battered in a book called the Duck and the Darklings page 3. My new challenge was to add some antonyms. Antonyms are things that mean the opposite like an antonym for go is stop. I usually create my own pictures and how to  create a picture is you have to click on insert at the top and then you have to click drawing and it will come up with a blue screen and then you can draw. I am proud of my work because I tried my best and it is always fun!

Writing

When I was walking in the lime green forest with the colossus trees surrounding me and the fresh green grass with a soft dirt path walking by myself I felt the hardest thing under my feet.I bent down to swipe the dirt off the hard thing...It was a wooden square trapdoor! I really wanted to find out what was down there.Creek! I opened the door.Slam! It nearly cut my feet off.I stared down Into the deep hole.There was a rope ladder that led to a little stone dungeon.Walking down the ladder I felt scared of what was in the dungeon.Creek the door opened from the dungeon and a portal opened.Seeing the portal I ran up the ladder to not get sucked in the portal but the trapdoor lid closed so I was sucked into the portal.I was so dizzy  that I felt like I was going to spew but I was at the land that the portal took me to.When I stood up to look where I  was I saw a sign that said crystal island.I was speechless I read about It In a book and It said that there were crystal fairies that were made out of real crystals,there was a dangerous crystal crocodile that lived at the crystal lake and there are other things in crystal land that are made out crystals.There was a shimmering crystal path that led to the crystal fairy kingdom so I walked on.Let the adventure begin!Once I came to the fairy kingdom I had to be quick because the fairies can sting you like a bee even though they look so pretty they are like a bee.Now the fairies are sleeping but they set up traps around the village so that if someone or something goes in the village they can capture them with there traps and put them in a far away dungeon that they cant escape from. Luckly I know the traps.The traps were comoflaged Into the city like a invisible concrete patch that you can fall through and stay there utill the fairies get you with a enourmous  net.Quietly I sneek Into the kingdom and go slow.Suddenly I fall into a trap! Riiiiiing an alarm rings and the fairies wake up and put a string net that they capture everything in over me.When I look around to see where I was. I was in the far away dungeon!Trying to get out of here I failed every way I tried.leaning back on the wall a secret passage opened.Quickly I ran into the tunnel that when I was puffed out I was there I was at the end of the village! Crystal lake was right in front of me.Quickly I tried to go as fast as I can so I don't wake up the enormous crystal lake crocodile.Walking around the lake I can see the bubbles from the crystal crocodiles nose.He was sleeping! Rising up from the lake was the crocodile waking up from his sleep.The crocodile sprinted after me and I was running for my life.When I was running I noticed a mini sparkle up in the distance but when I got closer I could see It was a…PORTAL! Running as quick as I could I jumped through the portal and ended up at the forest again!Quickly I rushed home but on the way home from the lime green forest I noticed the trapdoor that I came into. When I was near home I went to the toy store and when I went in I  saw pretend crystal crocodile toys!Quickly I went home and tried to remember if It was real?

This Is my 1st trapdoor writing and I am proud of it because it was my personal best and now I am going to tell you my return!

Now I’m sure you know my story about the trapdoor when I found a trap door in the forest,opened it up,went through the portal and got to crystal island and got chased by the crystal crocodile.I have always been visiting since my adventure.But one day when I visited the trap door...it opened up by itself! It’s like it wanted me to return to crystal island.So I took the risk and climed down the ladder that went down to the dungeon and then...the portal opened I think it knew I was there.After the sicky ride to crystal island I landed on the ground and stood up.There it was the crystal island sign and the path to crystal kingdom.As soon as I reached crystal kingdom all the fairies were awake!They all stared at me and just kept going.Something I noticed was that there traps were gone and the fairies had no stings on there back.One of the faires came up to me and said “Hello I am Sapphire,one of the 7 gem princesess,my sisters are,Emerald,ruby gold diamond and silver but that’s the gems they are related to not there names,let me take you to a house that you can stay in for now’’said saphirre.Sapphire led me to the house and it was all made out of crystal’s.When I whent in the house it was as shiny as any crystal that I had ever seen!When It was night time it felt like a little ride on a rollercoaster. When I woke up I was staring into a….FIRE! When I looked around to see where I was small goblins were surrounding me and I was tied to a little stick under a FIRE! ‘’Hello little one,I am Zog,leader of goblin city and we are having a feast and…..you are invited.Everyone we capture gets invited to a feast but you don't really want to be invited’’Zog said in a creepy voice. ‘’Take her to the room!’’When we reached the room that the feast was in I  remembered that I had good unknotting skills so In untied the rope while the goblins were outside.When I was free I saw a little door that led outside to the crystal lake! I peeked outside and raced to the crystal lake.When I reached crystal lake without any goblins seeing me the crystal crocodile was sleeping with the bubbles coming to the surface from his nose.Sneaking past the crystal crocodile he awaked immediately but did not chase me but when It took a closer look...IT CHASED ME!Like last time I saw a little spark in the distance and when I got closer a portal opened and I jumped through and I got back to the forest. I felt relief I was finally back home.

I am proud of my work because It is my personal best and I know it is.I came up with this idea because when we had to write something and I thought I would do another trapdoor story.
