Measureable

My completed work will be in full detail, so that you will see a perfect picture in your mind, without any errors.

...................................................................................................................................................................

Attainable

By adding lots of detail to my writing through thoroughly checking it multiple times, and writing it in different ways to see which best suits.

...................................................................................................................................................................

Results

...................................................................................................................................................................

Timeline

When I’ve completed my goal. But preferably by the end of this term, but that might not be possible if I want to perfect it.

...................................................................................................................................................................

I think I have definitely completed what I set out to achieve with my midterm writing goals this year, although I can still add to them and work off of them. Most, if not all of my work so far has been proofread to ensure that it was the best I could make it.

100 Word Challnege

Here's the new 100 word challenge for this week.

...................................................................................................................................................................

This is the prompt...

BATH Fighter Danced Orange Clumsily

...................................................................................................................................................................

Here is my piece.

Running water swirled around at the base of the bath. I wasn’t necessarily dirty, but I needed the calm and relaxation only a long bath could provide. I touched the cool water. Cold, so cold. I opened my eyes to face a dodgy alleyway. I was hiding behind a wall, but I could sense him. The fighter. “Come out, come out, wherever you are” he called. I could hear him step clumsily, his feet unsure of themselves. I should’ve run. Instead I stayed still, like a coward. The coward paid the price. I opened my eyes and was back with the cool water. Too cold. I yelped in surprise and yanked my hand away. My hand hit a burning candle and made it topple to the ground. It hit the bathmat first. In the two seconds it took for me to process what had happened the orange flames danced around the room.

100 word challenge

It was in the middle of winter and the weather forecast that aired on the news yesterday said it would be sunny today. But yet it had been raining all morning! I couldn’t believe it. I decided to go outside and face the rain. Nothing would ruin this day, let alone something as silly as rain. As I opened the door and began to step out I noticed an ominous green light seeping out of the clouds. I decided to investigate. As I walked further out into the cold I could feel the rain thumping on my head. I looked up and found myself staring at the source of the light. It was something extraterrestrial. It was a UFO.

100 word challenge

Tim slowly raised the gun and aimed it at my heart. I proceed to shout at him to stop. He was making a grave mistake. If Tim killed me he wouldn’t have another alibi for the robbery. The robbery of the biggest diamond on earth. Of course, it wasn’t him, but he was still a suspect. I continued to shout at Tim, but he wouldn’t listen. So I began to walk forward, to gain his attention. He put his finger on the trigger and aimed again. I leaped forward at him, stealing the gun. I forcefully threw it away into the warm morning sun. As a reflex, he ran for it. But somehow the gun was twisted and distorted into a knot. I figured I must’ve somehow bent it, and the sun curled it into such a way. But Tim was angry at this development. He charged at me.

I saw the girl, running past the school gate. Her long socks were falling down, and her bag was repeatedly banging against her leg. I shouted at her to stop running, but she pretended like she didn’t hear me. Her shoelaces were coming undone as she carried on, so I shouted at her again, “Hey! Stop, you’re going to trip over!” She turned to look at me, and then stuck her tongue out at me, to prove that she didn’t care about whatever I said. And whilst she was teasing me one of her shoelaces twirled around her foot and launched her forward face first into the concrete.

She was sitting on the ground now, her face streaking with blood. It looked like it was unbearable. However, she just couldn’t believe what she had done.

100 word challenge

The hunt for the spikes continued. Everyone was looking for them at this point. It all started with a message. The message was about these spikes, and inside one of them was a diamond. One almost as big as the plant itself. Somehow this message spread worldwide almost instantly. No-one knew how, or if it was even true, but everyone wanted to find the spikes. The hope of finding a diamond was too much to pass up. At first, only a few people believed it, but the trend spread. Everyone was soon spending all of their time looking for the spikes.

Some people found some spikes, but they were not the right ones, they were empty. And after several years everyone was so desperate to find the spikes. Always saying that so many places had been searched already that it would be easy. It was not. Until the day I saw them. They looked like they were glowing. So I began to move closer.

Reflection

Question 4:

What learning or work today brought you the most satisfaction? Why?

Finishing Project 1 in maths.

This brought me the most satisfaction today because I have been working on it all week. Plus, my buddy who was supposed to be working on it all week was sick too.

100 word challenge

Can you invent a magical animal that could live in one of these magical places and tell us all about them?

The calpurl is a very curious creature that lives in the mystical woods of Lapu. The capurl might look similar to a fox, but it is in fact very different. First of all, the capurl has feathers on its body that replace its fur. To match the feathers the calpurl has a pair of pointy wings that lay flat across its body.

No-one has ever seen a calpurl on the ground because there are lots of predators in the woods of Lapu, which makes the calpurl’s wings very useful. Every night the calpurl soars into the sky, and returns to its home in the trees.

Here is my 100 word challenge for term 2 week 2;

I opened the front door to find a package sitting at my feet. It was a small cardboard box, thoroughly wrapped in duct tape. I took it inside and rested it on my table and wondered who it came from. I turned it upside down, but there was no return address whatsoever. Strange, I thought.

I decided to open it, the curiosity killing me. I gasped, doing so knocking the box onto the floor. ‘What IS it?’I nervously asked myself.’Who sent it to me? When did it arrive?’ I said out of desperation. The thing in the parcel scaring me to death.

Here is my term 1 week 1 100 word challenge;

7/5

SHOUTED CRIMSON MISTY FRANTICALLY GRAVE

It was a cold, misty day, so I could only just see Molly. She was frantically waving her arms at me to follow her, but I was unsure. So she took a few steps forward when, the ground beneath her cracked. She shouted at me, saying it was fine, that this happened a lot and that it was nothing to worry about. The ground cracked again, threatening to give way, all the while Molly was singing a tune, saying that it would be fine. But the grave expression that appeared on her face seconds later made my heart stop. I couldn’t breathe as she tumbled away into oblivion. The rocks still freshly stained a bright crimson colour.

Reflective Question

I met success with reading the chapel reading without having learnt it.

Ms Hart will benefit from this, because now she knows that I am capable of doing this. So, she might choose me to do so again.

5th 100 word challenge

Here is my 5th 100 word challenge:

...but how did he/she get up there?...

This was going to be like one of those movies. I just knew it. I stared up into the sky, my eyes were searching for him. Maybe it would be like one of those cartoons instead. As the sounds of sirens and helicopters picked up again, I began to lose hope. I tried to call him again, “Ashes! Come down!” With no reply.

One of the police officers strolled over to me and began to ask me some questions ”but how did he/she get up there?” He began, so I started. “First of all he’s a he, second his name is Ashes, third I don’t know!” “So you don’t know how your cat climbed the statue of liberty?” He questioned. “No I don’t.” I replied.

Have a good day everyone!

MUFTI DAY

Today is mufti day! Yay! Here is my 100 word challenge...

The clouds were having a tea party in the sky,

But one cloud thought that it was all a big lie.

So he drifted down onto the earth,

But little did he know that he landed in Perth.

Then he heard a whole lot of Hullabaloo,

Soon he found out that it was coming from the zoo.

He went straight to the famous baboon,

And on his way out he saw a racoon.

The racoon had a message it said ”come near,

Near the park not the ocean all the way over there.

The present is a tea cup placed on the ground,

A tea cup for you, so you should be proud.”

The cloud joined the tea party up in the sky.

And he no longer thought that it was a lie.

4th 100 word challenge

Here is my 4th 100 word challenge. ...but what if I was in charge?

I entered the building feeling happy, my mind set on another day of work. But not just any other day of work... today I was getting a promotion! Ah a promotion. Just what I needed. But… but what if I was in charge? What would happen then?

As my mind conjured up these ideas I began to become energetic. I high-fived all of the customers and I bounded right into the kitchen happy as could be. I waved to all of the cooks then went through out the door, picking up multiple bags on the way. But suddenly as I opened the door to outside I was greeted by the boss!

“Harriet! There you are! Guess what? You have been promoted from garbage duty to dishwasher! Isn’t that amazing!” He was saying. Well what did I expect? The fast food chain just isn’t my thing.

And Guess who won the golden trophy of awesomeness?

Team Wednesday!

So if you're a librarian, you've got some competition. And if you're on team Wednesday with me, keep it up because we won this...

We won, we won we won!

3rd 100 word challenge

Hi people reading my blog. No-one there? Ok great. Oh well here is my weekly 100 word challenge...



This week we have a strange group invading the wood!

As we trudged through the woods on our ‘exciting’ nature walk I felt a something that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up straight. A spindly, hard hand tickled my arm. Like it was made out of wood. But I knew better. I knew it was alive.

I thundered to the front of the line to consult the nature walk instructor. “Hello, I wanted to-” I began to say before she started again. “This week we have a strange group invading the wood!” She explained. “But be warned they are very dangerous. They can injure or even kill you. So stay away at all costs-” She continued before she got interrupted by a very violent scream. Then everything went black.

100 word challenge

Here is my 100 word challenge, hope you enjoy!

… we were moving very fast when…

It was my first time on a cruise ship and I was amazed at the size of it. It was humongous - as big as a cross country track. Then I got the idea to run around the cruise ship.

So I gathered up lots of people and proposed a race - 1 lap around the ship, first one back gets $20. So we all got ready. 3...2...1...Go! Then we all fled in the same direction eager to win the $20. We were going very fast when we neared the back of the ship, but I didn’t turn.

So I fell off into the icy cold water below.
