The Warden owns the Shade...

11/2/2015

92 Comments

 
Picture
The only trees are two old oaks on the eastern edge of the “lake.” A hammock is stretched between the two trees, and a log cabin stands behind that. The campers are forbidden to lie in the hammock. It belongs to the Warden. The Warden owns the shade.

Inspired by the above and writing together, 5/6M wrote the following: 
The only “playground” equipment was the rusty slide near the dark toilets. The slide made a groaning, rickety sound, and the dark toilets loomed over it with a barn door beside it. The children are forbidden to use the slide. It belongs to the Year 6s. The Year 6s own the “playground”.


Read below to see some of 5/6Ms own inspired writing. Please give us stars (tell us our strengths) when you can.

The 5/6M "classroom" lay at the end of the corridor upstairs.On the far left.The screams of the chairs and smell of fresh tears lingered in the corridors.Every moment in the "classroom" was just like another day in jail.Nobody was allowed to stand up or waste time.Mr Mac owns the time and space.

The only "playground" equipment was a rusty old swing. Rumor has it that a young girl died there 6 years ago by hanging herself. They say she had escaped an insane asylum, others say she was just mental. Only she knew what she was doing, only she knew what she was doing.Every year one person just one,DIES,the same time same everything. One year a year 6 dies. The only thing was, the girl who died know one knew except a teacher.She knew who the girl was.she was the girl who died 6 years ago

The 5/6M "classroom" was the only classroom which was haunted by the sound of screams. The "classroom" was old, rusty and dark. It was the only "classroom" in the entire school that had stains of blood on the floor. Whoever dared to go into the "classroom" came back like a zombie roaming around the school not knowing what their doing.

The only "school" in the City is Fort St Public school, the teachers have all been the same since 1958. All the students that go to that "school" are all locked in their classrooms with their dead teacher. The toilet has no light so all the People that go in there see a bunch of teachers, that are kind of invisible, and have no legs. The students that come out of that toilet seem to be different.

The only equipment in the playground was a lonely slide. The slide made a noise that sounded like a baby dying. The Year 5 students weren't allowed to go on the slide . It belongs to the Year 6 students. The Year 6s own the fun.....

The only windows in the school were at the very front of the school. The windows hold the only light in the entire school. The children are forbidden to go near the the windows. The light belongs to the principal. There is only one rule at our school, never annoy the principal or you'll be in detention untill HIGHSCHOOL!!

The only "friends" were three animal like animatronics. As the blood and vains dripping from the dead eyes of the animatronics and the clown music plays in the background, the children are forbidden to enter, which is good considering their colestrole level. The pizza place belongs to the soul of the dead child. the soul owns the pizza place. (I'm liam)

The floores creaked in the so called "deligtful" holiday home. Caroline was staying at her grandmothers house who had sadly passed away for an unknown. Caroline's crazy mother said staying here would be a good way to reconnect with her grandmother. Caroline was creeped out by her grandma dying unuasly so reconnecting is a thing she didn't want to do. "I shot gun the biggest room" cried Billy. Caroline dropped her bags and started to loose her strength she fell to the ground...

The ''fun" water park reeked with the noxious odor of dead rats.The water was dark, murky and seemed to be used as a toilet.The deserted water park was located at the edge of town.The wind groaned as rats scurried around and a black bird gobbled a poison ice cream and died among a dead man.However, not only one dead body was spread acrossthe floor.About a million dead bodies were there.Although it wasn't even oneyear old, it was shut down.Everyone in town was forbidden to go in there.Only the ghosts of dead peoplecould go in.The ghost owned the water park.
