I was on Tosa Shock last year. My team wanted to be like the legendary All American Girls Baseball Players. I was up to bat for my team. The pitch came. I flinched away from the ball, but it still hit me. I glared at the pitcher as I walked to first. I muttered and said,” I am going to steal on the next pitch.” I stole 2nd base, and I was safe. I was on 2nd base now. Our home run hitter was up to bat. His count was full. The next pitch was a good pitch. She hits it far, far, far. It's gone! I gaped at the ball and took off running home. When we were in the field, we struck the first batter out. We walked the next batter. Then their 3rd batter hit a pop fly to first base. We caught the ball and stepped on the base. It was three outs. When we made the double play, the girl was stunned. That ended the game. We won! We were snickering after the game. Winning this game was not a fluke. We beat them soundly. We had a party after the game.
Rose went on a camping trip. She always goes to a particular campground. She had to drive four hours to get there. When Rose got there, she made a huge bonfire. The blazing fire was sparkling bright! Sparks were shooting out everywhere from the fire pit. When she was cooking her marshmallows, it sizzled and fell right into the fire. Then she made one more. She next clustered the chocolate onto the marshmallow. After she finished eating her s’more, she hiked up a mountain. When Rose got to the top, she was so tired that she had to stroll back down the mountain. When she got back, she was even more tired that she surrendered immediately to sleep. Rose had so much fun camping.
Jesus in the Synagogue by Beth Langebartels
Jesus went to a city called Capernaum. The next Sabbath day Jesus went to the synagogue teach God’s Word. When Jesus was teaching the Gospel, a man with an evil spirit yelled out. He said, ”I know you are the Holy One of God.” Jesus said, ”Keep quiet. Come out.” The evil spirit came out. The people were amazed at what Jesus was talking about. The news spread quickly.

One day Bob went to a barn to help the owners with their animals. When Bob got there, he started inspecting all the animals. Then while Sally, the owner, started talking, Bob took his eye off the animals. A cat lurked in the corner waiting to attack a mouse. After Sally was done talking, they got some rope. It was nice, strong, and taut. Bob tried to untangle all the ropes, but he could not get them straightened out. Later when Bob was cleaning things around the barn, he found a sheet of paper that was all rumpled. The sheet of paper said,”You have to clean everything in the barn.” Bob was reluctant to do the job. He really did not want to do that job. Soon Sally came back into the barn to check on Bob. When Sally came into the barn, it resounded with all sorts of animal sounds. Then they went to check on the power line. It had fallen down. There was a power surge that ruined a lot of their electronic equipment, including their computers and televisions. Bob had a very hard day.

My family went to a basketball game. I was impressed with a girl that was so awesome. That nimble player was quick and agile. She was very slick and did several cool moves. When someone got injured while playing, the game ceased. Then one fierce girl on the other team was angry because her team lost. That was no dream. It existed. The game was fun to watch.

One day we were cleaning the house. We started with our bedrooms and bathrooms. When I was making my bed, my sister jumped on it. I said,” I like my bed made in a unique way.” Then I yelled at her. A half an hour later we were then cleaning the windows. When my sister walked into the room, she said,” My bed was very flexible.” She says whatever comes to her mind. Then I washed the windows in a delicate way. After that, I saw that bugs were infesting the house so I sprayed water on them. The next window I washed had bugs on it too.
There were no bugs for the next three years. It was a long interval. I forgot to say we are planning on having a party. I was inspired to walk around the house and make sure there were no more bugs. Before the party started, I preserved the house with bug spray so the bugs would not come back. When my friends got to my house, we bonded together by playing several games. I was very happy to see them.

I was a widow, and my son died. I was now all alone and was very sad. When some friends and neighbors were walking with me to the cemetery to bury him, Jesus came up to us. He put his hand on the stretcher that was carrying my son. Jesus said,” Young man, I say to you, get up” Then the boy got up. I was so happy to see my child again.

One day Jack and Jill went on a hike. On the hike they avoided a certain tree that was about to fall. Jack and Jill picked up two insects. They started naming some traits and characteristics about those two bugs. The two bugs resembled bugs that Jill had in her science book. Jack and Jill captured the bugs. Jack was lured into a tree but got out of it before it fell down. Jill was very happy that Jack got down before it fell. They forgot to feed the bugs so one bug ate the other one. It was like the one bug became the predator to the other bug became the prey. They let the bug still alive go free. When they let the bug go free, it mimicked the other bugs flying in the air. Later on their hike a deceptive hiker told us there was a waterfall at the end of the trail. When they got to the end of the trail, it was obvious to see that there was no waterfall. Jack and Jill were disappointed.

One day there was a family called the Incredibles. If they saw something bad, they chased after it immediately. The parents did not want the children to escape, but the kids came constantly after their parents had left. The family had tools that made things contract and get quite small. The baby revealed a great ability to throw a ball against a wall a lot of times. When the family was fighting each other later that day, all their efforts caused a long, deafening eruption. When Mr. Incredibles was trying to stop a ship. The ocean water was more than a 100,000 feet deep in depth. The water gradually moved up over time. The Incredibles had a fun and very hard day, but they managed to save the day. They always do it well.

My friends and I went to campsite where Ana, Hailey, Calissa, and I set up our tent. Setting up our tent was complete drudgery. It was hard, but we had fun doing it. Then we went hiking and canoeing. First we had to hike to the canoe rental store. On the way there, we were laughing and singing songs. It was a great time to be together with friends. When we got close to the canoe rental shop, we noticed that the path had been altered since we last came. Alongside the river by the cliff Ana, Calissa, and Hailey scoffed that I would fall off the canoe into the rapids. I said, ”I will not fall off the canoe.” We went to the cliff first. When we were climbing up the treacherous rocks, we often slipped. We were scared. We finally got up to the top of the cliff where we jumped off. The other girls made me go first, but it was not scary. Then Ana, Hailey, and Calissa plunged in. They thought it was amazing. They forgot all about me going through the rapids. Back at the campsite I started a fire, ate dinner, and went to bed. With all the excitement no one could sleep.
When we all woke up, it was only 5:30 a.m., but we got up because we could not keep sleeping. We started our fire again. For breakfast we had pancakes and eggs. I heard something weird. I asked them if they heard something. They said, ”They heard it too.” They told me to check if our breakfast was ready. It was smoldering. We had burnt the entire meal so we just ate toast. That was better then burnt pancakes and eggs.
Later that day, Ana, Hailey, and I discouraged Calissa that she would fall while hiking on the next trail. We knew it would be a harder trail. Calissa said, “That probably will happen.” She actually did fall. At lunch we skeptically talked about if we wanted to hike another trail , but we decided to go back to the campsite. We had a very, very fun weekend.

One day my family went deer hunting. We saw a lot of deer in a field. One was trembling with fear when it saw us. The trembling deer that was in the field looked very drab. We got closer to the pack of deer. We shot a deer. I was very happy because occasionally we only get one. We were hoping to shot another, but I was very timid. My brothers were very fascinated by the first deer we got.
Later we saw someone dash into a cave. We went after his footsteps. When we got closer, we noticed that the person was a hermit. He was eating peculiar food.
Later we dropped off the deer to get the meat processed. We had a fun time. I was happy we had caught a deer because I love the meat with mashed potatoes. YUMMY!

One day my friends and I went bowling. We rented a bowling alley for five hours. Right away all of us went on a quest to find the right bowling ball to use. I discovered a bright, blue ball. It was perfect. All of us found similar balls. We were now ready to start bowling. It was my turn to bowl. I trampled and tripped over the one step one had to take to get to the level of where we would bowl. I must have sprained my ankle. My ankle seemed to be swollen and bruised. My friends messaged my ankle and tenderly tinkered with my sore foot. Their care made me feel better.
After I finished my fourth game, I went to order us pizza. When I came back, Hailey said, “I got three strikes!” Ana and Calissa accused Hailey of being a hoaxer. They thought she had been cheating when she recorded my scores.
I told them that we would have to equally share the cost for the bowling and the pizza. We all “chipped in” and forged together the money to pay the total cost of the food and bowling. After we finished eating our pizza, we played our final round. When we finished our final game, we tried to go home, but the the owners of the bowling alley barred us from leaving. I called my mom and told her what had happened. We finally got home!

My family and I went to visit our cousins in China where they are missionaries. On the way there, we had to take a stop over in New York City so that our airplane could get more fuel. There we saw the Ancestor Island. Most people would call it Ellis Island. It was so cool to see it. When our refueling ended, we again re-boarded our plane. Luckily, I fell asleep right away. The nap was very restful and graceful. When I woke up, we had arrived in China. We were mischievous to find where our relatives were. My cousins were participating in a basketball game, for ages 4-10. Thankfully they were the right age to play. They played a brilliant game. We went to their house where we talked and played a lot of fun games. On their T.V (in their house) sculptures appeared. They looked so cool. We went to go see them. They were exotic when they glowed in the light. They were the coolest thing I ever saw. The best part, however, was seeing my cousins.

I was in a basketball tournament on Saturday. I was very confident that we would win the tournament. My team played very well. We won the first game. When we were warming up for our next game, my teammate said,”I hope we win!” I insisted that we will win the game, and we did win! My friend then declared that we were going to win the championship game. During that last game I made a magnificent move. After that game I was anxiously waiting for the championship game. My team was so happy we gloated that we would win the final game. The other team was distressed when we went on a fifteen point run in the championship game. We won! It felt great to win the championship game. My team got medals. They were cool. We had a great time playing basketball.

The party decorations consisted of balloons and party favors. My friends made a list of what I like to do. Then using that list they all selected a gift to get me. My friends recalled that during my last birthday party, we played funny games.
When my mom was making the cake, she intended to put a surprise inside the cake. Then when I would open it, the cake would explode. Next we had lunch. My friends snatched almost all the food, because they were so hungry. After lunch, I opened the presents that my friends brought me. Finally we played different fun games similar to the last time I had a birthday party. We had a very fun time playing together. It was a fun birthday party!

I had basketball games this weekend. It was a long journey to get there. We got the ball from the opening jump so we had a great opportunity to put the ball in the hoop to get the lead. The ball went in through the nets. We all burst with happiness. After the game, we all went to a restaurant. I recognized our team at a table. Next game, we huddled together before the game started. I got pushed down on the court very hard. The fall hurt very badly. We lost this game. Since the other teams playing this weekend were not good, we played the same team again. This time, however, we won by fifteen. Even though we lost our second game, we won the championship game. We were all comforted that we won. We felt so happy. We love playing basketball!

My family and I are driving to my next basketball games. During the drive there, I nervously fidgeted around with a ball trying to stay calm. I was happy when we finally got there.
In our first game the opposing team attempted to be stingy about having us run our plays. They thought they could win if they could keep the game on their side of the court. But they could not keep the ball on their side.Our team, however, was resolved to win the game. Their game plan did not work, and we took control of the game on both sides of the court and won!
We also played one more game that day. In this second game our opponents played well. This time we had difficulty of scoring. We tried scrounging around for the ball, but we lost the game. They were a hard team to beat.
On the next day, we again played the first team we played the day before. Both times we played this team they were pathetic. This victory allowed us to play a final game later for fifth place. We were noble with the ball in the last game. Our fans were proud of how we played. Right at the end of the game I got fouled with 2.0 seconds left in the game. A made free throws would tie the game. I missed the first. I felt forlorn and sad about missing that first free throw.
I started to have a suspicion in my mind that I might miss the second free throw. Thankfully, I made the second. We, unfortunately, lost the game

Today Ana, Calissa, Katy, Abby, Hailey,Ella S., and I went to the UConn vs. Marquette NCAA Women's basketball game. We had an advantage of getting really good seats to watch their game. Marquette had a very suitable, additional color on their jerseys. Marquette was playing UConn.
All the players on both teams were remarkable in their level of play. The entire game stayed close and was hard fought. All the players withstood playing at a this high level on both sides of the court. UConn was stealthy in keeping Marquette guessing what play they would next run.
At half time Ana wanted to play a prank on all of us. She planned to extract something from all of us. She would grab things from each of us and then put it by her stuff. None of us noticed her garb it. After Ana, Calissa, Katy, Hailey, Ella S., and Abby all played a trick on me, but I did not notice that they were doing it. Their trick was to blindfold me. They told me that Marquette was winning the game, but they were not. We had a very fun time. The game finally ended, and UConn won. It was a great day.

Today my friends and I are going to run the Tough Mudder. We have often talked about running a race that takes you through a series of obstacles, dangerous climbs, rope climbs, and jumps into water from a tower. I encouraged Ana, Hailey, Calissa, Katy, Abby, Sidney, and Ella S. to do their best.
Our race was scheduled to start at 9:45 a.m. The loudspeaker announced, “Go!” It was a massive race. Ana, Hailey, Calissa, Katy, Abby, Ella S, Sidney and I agreed that we would stay together for the entire race. The race was so muddy that our shoes started submerging deep into the mud. All of us almost lost one of our shoes as we sunk deep into the muck.
Soon the race got even more complicated. It would be harder to finish the next obstacles. Some of the obstacles were called the “Bamboo Forest”, “Spiraling-up Walls”, and the “Deep Mud Solo”. We got so tired we roamed around trying to find a place to rest. The Bamboo Forest was so eerie and creepy that we ran as fast as we could to get out of that area. On the Deep Mud Solo you have to walk across the mud, climb up a rock wall, and then slide down a slippery slide.
The race was not fancy or elegant. In fact it was not one of my favorite races that I have run. We did finished though! Our names were listed on the reporting board, listing with what place we got. The board was like an electronic contraption that constantly kept updating as more people finished the course. We had a great, fun day in our mud race!

3.Munchkin... they are nice and helpful. They make you feel happy.
4.Tin Man... I think that it would be fun to wear a tin outfit and chop down trees.
I picked the parts above because they all sounded like they would be fun!
My first pick would be Dorothy because it would be so cool to have a main part. I am very good at memorizing lines. I think it would be a super fun and amazing part.
Next, I would pick the Lion because I would like to do the obstacles that the lion does in the story and movie. He runs fast and jumps far.
After that part, I would pick to be a Munchkin because they are nice and helpful. They make you feel happy if you are lonely.
Finally, I would pick to be the Tin Man because I think that it would be fun to wear a tin outfit and chop down trees. He helps build a fire and a raft.
I would love to have one of these parts.
What would I want to be for our play, the Wizard of Oz?

Rosa and Rachel went on a trip to Yellowstone National Park. On their way there they saw a cascading waterfall on a mountain. The waterfall glistens from the sun in the distance.
When Rosa and Rachel got to the start of a mountain trail, they saw the top of the peak from a distance. During their hike they saw a cave embedded with multi-layers of various rock to the ground. There were sentries guarding the cave.
Later, they got to the top of the mountain. They were so weary that they rested for half an hour. Then they came back down the mountain and found an ancient jewel that had started eroding from the wind, sand storms, and freezing rain. They had a great time hiking.

One day I had a dream where I was hiking in the woods. The woods were fanciful. Since it was spring, some trees were flowering while the rest were budding out. I was surrounded by beautiful trees, bushes, plants, and flowers.
Then I walked through these woods to get to my friend’s house. She told me that she had drawn an illusion of a beautiful beach scene. After that, we went on a scenic walk alongside at high cliff near the water’s edge. We could have jumped off this cliff we could jump off, but we stayed safely on the trail.
She told me in a cordial way that her mom had packed a lunch. My friend told me that she would share her lunch with me We stayed by that cliff for lunch. We had a hearty meal of: sandwiches, fruit, vegetable, yogurt, and pretzels. Then we found a gigantic colossal tree that had a hole allowing us to walk through its trunk. The tree was a behemoth. The height and size of this tree was amazing to see. Then I woke up. Had this all been a dream?
