Scary Halloween Night


Scary Halloween Night

It was a hot sunny day and there were two kids playing outside,Tiere and Willy, and they were playing tiggy. They lived in a house that was next to a graveyard and their house was haunted but they didn’t mind at all . Tiere looked like a star. She had eyes the colour of the ocean and had brown hair that swayed in the fresh air and she always wore a hibiscus flower in her hair. Willy on the other hand, had green eyes and black hair that always sparkled in the sun. He is trendy with the way he dresses as he like to wear hats that go with his outfits.

Then one day Tiere shouted, “ It’s halloween so we can go out to see the graveyard!”  So they went inside to get their costumes on. Tiere dressed up like a angel and Willy dressed up like a zombie. When they had finished dressing, they got their pumpkins and headed out to the graveyard. They did not know that every night two ghosts would come out of their  grave. When Tiere and Willy reached the graveyard they heard a loud “BOO!” Tiere nor Willy noticed  but took no notice of what was going to happen. Then suddenly, two ghosts came out of their graves and gave the two kids a tremendous fright as if they had never seen a ghost before. The kids were so frightened that they screamed “Arrrgh!” The ghost chased the kids round and round and round until  they were exhausted. Tiere said “I will not give up so we are going to fight back!”. So they did with speed and skill. The ghosts did not know what they were doing until  it was too late. Willy and Tiere were too fast and too quick. They cowardly went back to their graves and never came out again.
Tiere and Willy were so happy that they went off to go trick or treating.

When they had come home the ghosts were still in their grave and the kids never saw them again. Tiere, Willy and their family moved house and they had a wonderful life together.

And never again did Tiere and Willy go out to a grave at night ever again.

My Speech about Money

How did you feel about presenting your speech to the class?
I felt scared and nervous when I presented my speech.

What was the hardest part about preparing a speech? Thinking of what to write about and thinking of good ideas to talk about.

What did you enjoy most about speeches?

I like presenting and getting it done. Not worrying!

How could you improve your speech making next time?

Make more eye contact with my audience and use gestures.
