The Haunted House

The haunted house

I see…The moonlight shine onto the house that hasn’t been lived in for years

I feel...Cobwebs and old antique things ,torn down velvet curtains and draft coming in from the windows.

I smell… Blood on the ground, stale air, rotten skeleton bones

I hear...whispering sounds coming from nowhere

I taste...Rotten air floats into my mouth

I think...That this old house is really haunted and ghosts still live here...

Sad dogs

Dear Humans

You should go to the pet  shop or the dog pound and buy a sad dog.   It will have a happier home living with you and won’t be so sad anymore because you can play with it and it will learn not to be sad anymore!

There is too many sad dogs just lying around in the same cage every day and not having fun, it's like a jail!

Imagine if you were trapped in jail and not having fun with others and not run around at the park, well that's how I feel, stuffed up in a cage and nobody would adopt me. I’m not even allowed to play outside and do fun things with my friends like you do.

That's how I feel because I am locked up in a cage and not having fun with you.

I don’t want to be feed the same food each day, I want to be free and catch the stick I want someone to talk to someone to play with me!

Why did you lock me up in a cage anyway I haven't done anything wrong, I want to play, I want to travel.

I have had enough of this stinking old cage I want to smell the fresh air, I want to be free.

Christina’s House Mouse Enclosure

My Creature is a… House Mouse.

Some things I needed to consider about my creature: My House Mouse needs ramps, tunnels, a Mouse wheel, string to chew on and a bed to sleep in. It also needs activities to keep it busy ,food,water. Lastly some space to run around in because they are really tiny and they need lots of space to run around in.

My enclosure has these special features for my pet: It needs a Hamster wheel, a two story ramp, toys and a little maze for it to go through.

What I am pleased about: I am pleased with Hamster wheel and the ramps and the tunnels and the maze to go through.

What I have found tricky: What I found tricky was... finding a stand for my Hamster wheel and gluing the ramps together and gluing the roof bit on because I burned my finger and it stung.

What I would like to improve: Next time I would improve to cover up the holes properly and and not rush to be more careful with the glue-gun putting less more hay in the bed and also not put string in the bed.

Calender Art/ Zebra

Something that challenged me was my calendar art. I did a zebra for my calendar art(but some people think its a cow.) It took me 4 practises to draw my zebra. It took me two days to get my amazing masterpiece finished..I made up different patterns to make my art look good. My favourite bit was making up the patterns. I learnt how to blend the dye in the background.
