You have two things to do for homework. Fortunately, they are both very easy tasks. 1. Browse you blog for "walking words" and write done ten of these "walking words" in your exercise books. Take care to scroll your ARCHIVES - do you remember what that means? (if you get stuck, remember that "walking words" are action words and we call them VERBS, right?. If you still get stuck, look in the archives under the month of September) Try to find out each walking style. Try asking your mum and dad. Don't worry if nobody knows. "Waddle" is easy enough. Remember that? That's part of the fun. 2. The second thing to do is find a picture of a face - any face at all, young or old, it doesn't matter. Get the picture from an old magazine or newspaper. If you can't find any, just use your "IMS" and draw a face, but make it big, and make it clear.
Do this work in your exercise books. If you find a photo or picture, just stick it in your book.
If you are still confused, say so immediately in the Comments below and I will answer your "help call" as soon as I can this evening.

The Pop-Up Ghosts Two billion years ago, there was this scary, creepy haunted house in America, near a forest. The haunted house was the scariest in the forest. It always made people run away, particularly when they saw it at night. One day, this family (the Amelia family that is) went to Pevenssky City near the forest. They rushed to the park which was right beside the forest. "Mother, mother!: said Amy. "Let's go for a walk in the forest." "That might be a bit of fun," her mother said. "And we can pick some berries!" "YeeeeaaaH!" Amy squealed in delight. And so they both went into the forest. While they were picking berries, Amy ran away from her mom. She went straight through the berry trees and she didn't know where she was after that. Then she heard this terrible voice. "OOOOOOOOOO". She was so scared that she ran as fast as she could until she came to the haunted house. She stared at it. She approached it. She found herself in a dark, scary place. She walked slowly into the front room until, "AAAHHH!" A ghost popped up right in front of her. Then a second one popped up. And then a whole pack of ghosts popped up! "Hi, my name is George," said one of the ghosts. "Hi, my name is Amy," she said, shaking in her boots, frightened, her eyes wide open with fear. "Oh, don't be afraid. We're not regular ghosts. We are the Pop-Up Ghosts. "Well, Ok," said Amy. "And who knows? Perhaps we will be good friends, "said the first ghost. So, from that day on, the Pop- Up Ghosts have been friends with Amy, and if anybody scares her, the Pop-Up Ghosts will scare the socks off the enemy. Judith and Shania October 2008.

One day there were two brave, fearless warriors and their names were Rokuru Heji and Kyle Helloic. Rokuru and Kyle were actually brothers and on every mission, they worked together and they rode horses. One night, a war started. Rokuru and Kyle were winning. "Watch out!" said Kyle. "Huh!"

They had won because they were strong, courageous warriors. "Who sent this beast and these soldiers here? Who ever did it, we'll pay him back!" "Hey look! One's still alive! said Rokuru. Kyle grabbed him and said," You'd better tell us who sent you and this beast here?" The Midnight Ghosts A long time ago in Europe, there were the freaky Midnight Ghosts and every time the clock struck 12, these fearful ghosts came out to drink the blood of the local villagers. The ghosts were extremely wild and when they drank the villagers' blood, the villagers would turn into ghosts as well. That was why the villagers were afraid to go near the ghosts' mansion. Then , one night the clock struck 12 and out came the ghosts to suck the people's blood. Nearly everyone in the town by this time had become Midnight Ghosts. One thing that could make the ghosts disappear was fire. Sunshine was no good for them either. There were two 10-year-old kids named Samantha ,and a boy named Jake and they wanted to put a stop to the Midnight Ghosts. When midnight came this night, the wind blew very hard, and thunder stuck everywhere loudly and lightning flashed. The ghosts thought that the town was finished and belonged to them. But, Samantha and Jake had a plan and the other part of the town to help. They put torches and lamps around the last few houses and when the Midnight Ghosts came, they were blinded by the lights and they all died. The next day, the boss of the Midnight Ghosts came out to destroy the people. People were running around in a panic when suddenly the night turned to day, but the boss didn't die because he had a special power that was very useful for him. He got wilder and wilder aned wilder, but tireder, tireder and tireder, until he didn't have any more power and that, was his time to die. Suddenly, he fell into a big hole, dead and all the townspeople cheered. Samantha and Jake were heroes. They had saved the town. Nathania and Sherline October 2008
