There was a boy and he lived under
the sea. One day he went for a ride in a submarine but there was a big eagle that swooped him.
His mum was relaxing in her chair but she saw what happened and saved the boy so they headed back home together.

It was cloudy and stormy and there
was no sign of the sun – instead it was pouring rain. Everyone was waiting for
the sun to come out and brighten up the dark, stormy day. It was like that for
the last few days but the next day when everyone had given up the sun peeked
through the clouds, it was still raining at the same time and then an amazing
burst of colours appeared in the sky and everyone rushed to their windows to
see all the amazing colours in the sky. They all knew that the sun would come
again every rainy day.

The colourful painting looks like a
rainbow with all types of colours you could imagine. It reminds me of a bright
amazing rainbow.
The second painting looks like a
bright sunny day with fresh new green grass and a big patch of purple flowers
all bunched up together and it reminds me of something happy and warm.

Some people lived in piano music
lines. There names were Do re Mi fa sol. One day they went down to the drum
line and tried to play drums but they couldn’t play so they went to another
string instrument – guitars and because they were similar the piano succeeded
at playing the guitar and said we’d better leave so they travelled home.
