The Evil Trickster

Once upon a time there was an evil clown who lived in the toy shop. He is as evil as Darth Vador. He is so evil that once he tried to take over the world but it didn't work. The evil clown thought he was the boss and intelligent. 
He looked ugly and evil. He wore a stripy top, blue and black pants with gold bells at the bottom and a rainbow wig.
The clown was such a trickster too. He tried to be the boss of all the toys.

In reading we are trying to use our green thinking hat to solve the Billy Goat's troll problem.
Flynn Parker has come up with this solution.
The Flying Basket Solution
The billy goats climb up the ladder and jump into the basket. They pull the rope until they are on the other side and climb down the ladder. Thats how they keep safe from the big scary troll.

Character description.

We are learning to write character descriptions using lots of adjectives and a simile.
Our stories are about the show.
Toy Robot
By Quinn Monk
I am a metal white and brown shiny robot. I have a cardboard suit with shiny buttons and cool facepaint. I have a helmet. I am good at laughing and bending. I walk like an old man.

Dancing Soldier
By Matthew Sorenson
Once there was a great toy dancing soldier who came alive in the Toymaker shop on the Bluestone Stage. He was colourful. He wore light brown, dark brown, dark green, grey and black camo clothes. He wore long pants and a camo top with long sleeves. He had black and green striped face paint.
He did great dancing, punching moves and marching.

Dancers ready for the show.

Tonight was our final show night. Room 8 children were amazing. Everyone performed with excellence and made us proud. What a great show. Here are some of our dancers. Aren't they lovely.
