The Ant Army Reading Activity Week 2

It all began at the back of a schoolyard, there was a colony of ants. As the sergeant listened closely and carefully to her report. She shouted to all the female-workers, “there’s a bag in the hallway of the school go, go go!”

So the bunch of ants ran fast through the schoolyard. While they were looking they found all kinds of school stuff. Finally when they came to the hallway of the school every single bag was hanging up on a hook, except for one. When they found the bag the sergeant told them to open the bag and find some Food.

Soon they were searching and searching and searching until they came upon a Cream Donut. The sergeant shouted at them, “grab the Cream Donut and run back to the colony go go GO!” Each ant took a piece each and moved their little legs as fast as they could go. Lucky that the female-workers were strong enough to carry the Cream Donut.

When they were running back to the colony they heard the thunder of the school bell. They heard the running of elephants and they started to panic. They were running as fast as they could go when a man with a tie came and stepped on some of the ants. They crashed all over the place and ants were flying in the air. The sergeant asked them if they were ok one answered, “I’ve just got a scratch” and another said, “I’ve just got one leg missing.” 

The sergeant was lucky that none of her troops were missing. Finally the ants got back to their colony and they eventually ate the Cream Donut with all the other ants.

The Rainbow Bird

       

South American Pavilion                             The White-Bearded Manakin

In South America there was a beautiful Forest. In the Forest nature was so beautiful and colourful, it was unbelievable. The leaves were as green as grass, the flowers were as pink as dolls dresses and the berries were as purple as ever.

The problem was that the Birds were jealous of the nature and their colours because all the Birds were black, brown and grey, they were as dull as ever. They all tried to rub the leaves, the flower petals and splash the wonderful berries on them but nothing would ever work.

At the end of the day after it would rain a marvelous Rainbow would appear in the bright blue sky. Nothing in Nature could compare with the beauty of the Rainbow. They wished with all their Hearts that someday that they will be as colourful and as beautiful just like the Rainbow.

But then one afternoon when the Rainbow appeared in the blue sky the Rainbow looked dirty and horrid. The Birds muttered to each other about how horrible the Rainbow looked. Then suddenly a bright coloured Phoenix comes from the sky in shock. He came and sat on a Tree and started to talk to the Birds, “our Rainbow is being attacked by a huge band of Roaches, we need to stop them before they destroy the Rainbow forever!” Some Birds agreed and were eager to help but some didn’t want anything to do with it. When this reaction happened with the other Birds the Phoenix was in shock with disappoint but it was their choice and he couldn’t do anything about it.

So the Birds who agreed to help flew up to the Rainbow and the Roaches didn’t stop for a second. This was when the battle began. Who would win the Birds or the Roaches?, this was very interesting and exciting. The Roaches were fighting the Birds and the Birds were eating the Roaches. While they fought the Birds and the Roaches began to fall because they were so tired.

Finally the battle finished and the Birds won their victory and excitement went all over the place, everyone was so glad and for their bravery that day they were rewarded. When they flew through the Rainbow their boring old colours of black, brown and grey were splashed with not only one colour but a whole heap of colours, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green and Blue. They were blessed with such beautiful colours.

The Phoenix left and they flew back down to the Tree. When they flew back down to the Tree the other Birds who stayed behind saw their beautiful colours and regretted staying back behind. From that day on they learned a decent lesson to always help a friend in need.

The Holiday Surprise

On a marvelous Sunday noon after church my family and I hurried to the car. We had to hurry to the car because we were going to go to a garage sale. So we left church and drove back home to get changed for the garage sale. 

When we all got changed and ready we drove off. The garage sale was at Mt Wellington. But instead of going to Mt Wellington we went to Sylvia Park. When we got into Sylvia Park we saw my Aunty Karissa and her kids. She also came with her husbands little brother his name was Christian. I said to my Dad with confusion, "what are we doing here?" He said that we were going to the Movies.

When we met together I was really thrilled because we were going to the Movies. I was wondering what we were going to watch.

So we went to the Movie Theatre and booked our tickets and seats. The Movie that we were going to watch was Despicable Me Part 2. I had already seen Despicable Me Part 1 and it was really cool so I thought that Part 2 would be really funny.

We started to buy the Food but then they were too expensive so me and my Aunty Karissa went to Pak'n'Save to buy some Ice creams. After we had bought the Ice creams my Aunty and I rushed back to the Theatre.

When we got back to the Theatre everyone was already sitting down on the couches and eating the Popcorn. While we were waiting my cousin and I went to the Arcade Room with my Dad. My Dad was playing a game, it looked really fun so I joined him.

After when my Dad and I lost and died in the game it was time to go back and wait. When we entered the Cinema it was dark as the nights sky, but we could see a little bit. When we had found our seats we all sat down and my Dad passed the Popcorn to us and we waited again.

Next we started to eat a little bit of our Popcorn and watched the advertisements that appeared on the screen. The screen was really long and wide. While the advertisements were going on the lights seemed to dime a little darker and darker and darker. When the advertisements were finished the lights went pure dark. It was silent like a Library and I was so excited. When the Movie begun there was a picture on the screen and also on the screen there were names of the people who invented the film.

The Movie was about a Villan who really becomes a spy and has a partner to protect the world. In some parts it was really funny and in some parts were really weird.

My highlight in the Movie was when another Bad Guy makes a kind of chemical that makes people or animals turn into a Purple Monster.

At the end of the Movie when everyone exited the Theatre I wished that I could watch it again because it was so hillarious and awesome.

Next time when I go to the Movies I want to see an Action Movie and enjoy eating the Popcorn and Ice Cream. =)
