War horse

For the Novel Study Room 4 is doing, we had to do a 100 word challenge about the first 3 chapters in a characters perspective. I chose Joey the horse that the book's about.

The year is 1914.  Today I left my mother and reluctantly went with a strange man.  He pulled me and put me into a farm cart. The weathers pleasant and sometimes frosty. My home is a large farm in the country. I live with  Albert, his parents and Zoey another  horse. My name is Joey.  My life at the farm has been hard work called ploughing but I’m fine as long as Zoey is beside me.  One day Albert's  Dad came running screaming “It’s the war”.  One day Albert’s Dad came, took me away, and sold me to the cavalry.

My Holiday

This morning we wrote 5 basic sentences about our holidays. We looked at a range of different connectives that will improve my writing. A connective is a word that joins 2 simple sentences together e.g. such as, nevertheless, in spite of, but etc. Next we spent time improving our 5 basic sentences by using connectives. Does your school use connective?

On Thursday  the second week of the Holidays Mum, Sophie, Rebecca and I went to the movies and watched Spider man Homecoming while we had melted ice-creams, after that we had Domino's Pizza for tea. It was raining while the little white Dog ran away however I had to chase after Him. On Saturday the 22nd Me and Auntie took Sox, her Dog, to the amazing Dog Wash at animates, Also we went a couple of days ago when there was a learning thing. In the cool Holiday we went to Burger King a lot, Also we bought a Vacuum for Nana Cathy because the other one She has is too heavy for Her.  On Sunday the 23rd I was in a awesome dog show with Auntie Paula’s dog Belle, (it was hard) however I still did it also she had bought two other Dogs to show, Cliff and Eva, They were all Fox Terriers.
