Story Retell -----Icarus and Daedalus

Today, I don’t have anything to write about. So, my mom told me to write a story retell. This is what I wrote:


Long ago, in Greece, there were a father, named Daedalus, and his son, Icarus. Daedalus was a great engineer and architect. King Minos of Crete asked Daedalus to build a maze to trap a fearful monster that was half-man and half-bull. Daedalus had done a good job because nobody who entered the maze could ever find a way out of the maze. Then, Daedalus and his son wanted to go home but the king didn’t allow them to go home. So the king put them in a prison tower. They couldn’t escape.

One day, they saw some birds flying in the sky. They got a good idea. Daedalus laid out some feathers to make wings for flying. They practised and practised flying every day. Daedalus told Icarus not to fly too high because the sun would melt the wings. He also told him not to fly too low because the feathers would get wet and would be too heavy to fly with. Icarus didn’t listen to his father so he flew close to the sun. Suddenly, the feathers began to fall apart and melt. He fell straight into the cold water. There was only Daedalus left. Daedalus was sad.

This story teaches us that we have to listen to our parents because they had learned from their experinces. I liked this story.

Jessie’s soccer tryout day

Today, I woke up early in the morning at 7:15. We went to church to attend worship first and later [ETC] Exploring Truth Community. I learned not only to take care of myself, but also to take care of the others. That means I should not be self-centered but I should be others-centered. The worship was very funny. I played games in Transitional period. The things in ETC were the same in worship time. I liked it. We ended at 12:30p.m. Then, we went to McDonalds and had lunch with Alex and Jessie. After lunch, we went to Mount Joy to watch Jessie’s soccer tryout. We went inside to the soccer field to watch Jessie. When the game started a man and a little girl was playing soccer in the side of the field. Then, Mike and I asked the man if we could play soccer. The little girl passed the ball to Mike and me. We played until it was half time. Then, we got onto the field and played soccer. There was one goalie and three attackers. We played until the next half began. This time at the side of the field, Alex was in the chain [that was the net] and I had to shot Alex’s ball in there. We practised and practised until it was at the end of the game. Jessie’s team won 2-1. It was a good game. After, we ran on the field to kick the ball around. At 4:00p.m., there was a practice game on the field so we had to kick the ball in the chain again. It was fun. We played until it was 4:27p.m. Next, Jessie’s mom, Auntie Lily,  took us upstairs to watch hockey. When we got there, it was too late. It was clean up time already. So, we left and went to Foody Mart. We bought lots of things. We bought Life Savers. [Those are just freezies not real life savers]. On the way home, I took a life saver and ate it at home. It was a good day. I felt happy.

Tremor Technology v Longo’s Blue

Today, we went to Milliken Mills Soccer Club to play soccer. I was being forward when we were playing first shift. I didn’t have a chance to attack because they were hard to attack. Every time I tried to attack, they got back the ball. I was in vain. Almost halftime, my coach made me be the goalie. I was a great goalie. I saved every shot including the shot when it was near the post. When it was almost at the end of the game, my teammate shot the ball in. There was only 9 minutes left. The final result was Tremor Technology 1-0 Longo’s Blue. I was so pleased that we had won the game. I also felt excited. My mom said my team had great progress in skills. The only enemy that we need to exert more effort  to fight against is Rogers Neon Yellow. I hope we can win the final in April. I think we can do it because dad will be there and will watch.

Story Retelling------ St. George and the dragon

Today I don’t have anything special to write about. So my mom asked me to do a story retell. The queen of fairies had George as a baby. The fairies took care of George until he grew up being brave, strong, calm, courteous, quick, and, clever. The fairies told him to take adventures for 6 years. Before he left, the fairies told him his greatest weapon was his brain. George walked and walked until he saw a castle. The people in the castle lived in fear because the kingdom in the castle had a horrible horrible dragon. If the dragon had no animal to eat, it would eat people. George wanted to help them. George and the princess, Sabra, went to the wise old sorcerer for help. The sorcerer said some magic words and an hourglass appeared. They went to the dragon’s lair and waited for the dragon to wake up and kill the dragon. When the dragon woke up, George threw the hourglass at the dragon’s mouth. The dragon blasted fire at George and Sabra but no fire came out because his mouth was frozen by the hourglass. The dragon never came out of the warm water because of fear of becoming an ice statue. George and Sabra saved the kingdom. The king gave George a shield as a reward. I liked the story very much.

Movie Day ------ ǽPolice Story

Today, my mom and I watched a movie called Police story. Few days ago, Jake, my classmate, told me about Jackie Chan, a movie star. So, we went to the library and borrowed this movie. When we watched it, we were so excited. In the movie, some bad guys were destroying the town, Jackie Chan tried to stop them, but couldn’t. Then, a bus driver was driving the bus. Suddenly, the bad guys attacked the bus driver. The bad guys told the bus driver to drive around the hill. Then, Jackie Chan took the short cut and ran after the bus. After he reached the bus, he got on the ledge and used an umbrella to climb up to the second deck of the bus. When the bad guys saw him, they kicked Jackie Chan off the bus. Jackie Chan fell on the ground. The bad guys turned around again. Jackie Chan took the shortcut and stop a car. The bad guys were going to crash into Jackie Chan. Luckily, Jackie Chan put in new bullets in his gun. When the bad guys were just about to crash, they stopped the bus just in time. Then, Jackie Chan fired at the bad guys. All of them ran away. Only one bad guy stayed at the bus. Jackie Chan pointed his gun at the bad guys. The bad guy wanted to run but couldn’t. The bad guy showed him his case of money that the bad guy had stolen.


The second exciting part happened in the department store. Jackie Chan fought the bad guys to save Celina who was the secretary of the bad guy. She knew the crime that the bad guy had done. Celina stole the information from the computer and wanted to give it to Jackie Chan. The bad guys raced to the mall to get Celina. Jackie Chan and Celina ran away. The bad guys found Celina and Jackie Chan. The people tried to get the case. Jackie Chan told Celina to get the case for him. The bad guys had caught Celina. They pushed her down the stairs. Jackie Chan told Celina to get it. But she was hurt. Finally, the bad guys had the case. Now Jackie Chan jumped from elevator to elevator and slid down 3 large wires. When he was on the ground, Jackie Chan and Celina was fighting the bad guys. The funny part was when Jackie Chan yanked a bad guy and threw the bad guy down the elevator. The man yelled “ Ahhhhhhhhh!”. I laughed when I saw the part. Then, Jackie Chan grabed a bad guy and threw him on the glass works. He did it to lots of bad guys. Next, a bad guy drove his motorcycle at Jackie Chan. Jackie Chan was so scared. I can tell from his face. He jumped on the person’s head and the bad guy fell off the motorcycle. Jackie Chan got on the motorcycle and as the bad guy jumped on the motorcycle, Jackie Chan drove in the glass area. The bad guy was badly hurt. He said “Ouch Ouch Ouch Ouch”. Then Jackie Chan threw another bad guy on the glass works. Suddenly, the police came and saw what happened. Jackie Chan punched a bad guy millions of times I think. At last, the bad guy was saying “AH AH AH AH AH”. Even his glasses were gone. He was under a broken table because when he fell down backwards, he smacked himself on the table and he was badly hurt. The police from the upper level came down and said Jackie Chan was a good guy. The police said that Jackie Chan was doing the right thing, Jackie Chan was pleased. Finally, the movie ended. I was so happy that Jackie Chan was the winner of beating the bad guys up.

Today at lunch recess, I played Cubs and Robbers with my friends. The cubs had to catch the robbers. If the robbers got catch for 3 times, the robber needed to be put in a fake jail. Jake picked Ericson, Michelle and Gretl to be iit. They gave us 20 seconds to run away from them. It was a great game. These are the scores.
