On Monday the 20th of November, Alex and I went to Prestatyn High School. When we went yesterday it was our second time going. We were doing English. The first time we went we created a story about a superhero dog. When we went this time we did our corrections from last time. We typed up our corrections on the computer. After we did our corrections, we had to do an illustration for our story. I did my dog (Ash The Dash) in his superhero costume, in his little house.
We had a little bit of time for break time earlier than the Prestatyn High pupils. We had to go in when the bell went because we would have been in the way of the year eights! We went inside and carried on with our illustrations. When I finished my illustration, I started to do a design for my front cover for my story. I only got the paper and then it was lunch time! We went for lunch in a room called “Caffi enfys”. On the way to the lunch room from the library, it was very busy because we made the mistake of going for lunch when the bell went!
We went past people in the corridors and they were calling us small! When we got to the lunch room, we were sent table by table to get our lunch. After lunch we made it back to the library without being crushed!
When we got back to the library we carried on with designing our front cover. My front cover said “The Adventures Of An Adventurous Dog.” I did mine in bubble writing too! We waited for other people to finish their work then got into a big circle. It was 5 minutes until home time. In the middle of doing our front cover, a lady called Miss Read took us out to record our voices telling our story. Miss Read said that my voice is amazing because I have already got expression in my voice! I really liked her comment on my voice she was really kind.
When we were in a circle we played a game. We went round the circle like circle time. We all had to say a word to create a story. We could say any word we wanted to. We made up a silly story about a monkey. He had lost his blue jumper. Aliens took it! His sister was an egg in a shoe!
Once we had finished the story about the monkey, Miss Moore took us to the front door by reception to meet our parents . Alex took me back to school. PRESTATYN HIGH WAS GREAT! I made a friend called Emma. She was really friendly. A boy that was there this time wasn’t there last time. He became our friend. His name was Brailee. Miss Moore was a really nice teacher. I can’t wait until next time!

On Monday I went to Prestatyn High to learn about English. This is my second time , and last time we started to learn a bit about how to create a story.

When we found out that we were making our own stories me and Cerys didn’t think we would do it, but we just had to get started. We had a couple of sheets for verbs and adjectives for us to not only learn for our stories but also to use to impress our teacher at school.

So this time we had to go back onto our story on the computer and improve our work. We also added some work onto the story just to make the story more exciting. We had a little break but we had to go back in when the bell went otherwise we would be crushed by the year eights!

We read a book for a bit so we could get some ideas about what to include in our story. It was then time for lunch and it was very busy going from the library and back but we made it back alive.

We then began to leave the story for a bit so we could create an image of our super hero as the story was based a super hero image. Now my super hero was called Super Storm the dog and his power (at the end of the story) is that he can change from dog form to human form and back again. So on my illustration I split the page in half. I drew what I thought the dog would look like and what the human would look like. Now, like I said, the dog is called Storm but I named the human hero a proper human name; Alex Williams because if you have a hero in disguise but you have a strange hero name that’s not going to work out is it?

Once we had done this we designed our front cover for our story, as we are suppose to sell our books! My front cover said in bubble writing “THE DOG WHO HAS FUN” and I was quite impressed with my self although I forgot to colour it in. Once we had done this we all had our work looked at by Miss Wood the transition co-ordinater and apparently she was very very impressed. We finally had to record our voices saying the story because we will be getting the CD of our story and I had to do it twice because I coughed but other than that it was a good whole day at Prestatyn High.
