The Monkey Saves the day!

I was in the jungle swinging to vine to vine at night with wolves’ running with me to run away from the hunters.

“The hunters are coming to shoot us!” I yelled. “So we need to get away from the hunters!”

We ran as far as we could we ran to the driest place in the jungle.

All of a sudden it started raining and became muddy. It was not fun at all now we were sad.

We were walking until nighttime and we were thirsty. We stopped and fell on the ground. We found a place to sleep in.

It was the morning when we woke up and walked to the lion king jungle.

We ran to the lion king and said “lion king can you help the jungle? The hunters are back and are shooting the animals up!”

“Run to the jungle monkey, when you are there have an invisible drink to turn you into an invisible monkey” replied the Lion King.

We were in the jungle. I was invisible and punched the hunter as hard as I could.

He was knocked out.

I the little monkey had saved the day and the animals sang a victory song for the monkey.
The Cheeky Chimp

The dark green shadows scattered across the forest floor. The glowing sun broke through towering emerald trees. The gushing sound of the cool aqua blue water echoed around the whole jungle.

The fierce tiger snarled as he heard rustling in the dark shadows. It was the cheeky chimp. His dream was to turn invisible to steal everyone’s supplies and food. He started to steal every ingredient he needed to create his own potion. The cheeky chimp laughed his evil laugh around the tree top canopy. He swooped down with his swirly vine and stealing all tigers stuff. Tiger was furious, he chomped on the chimp’s swirly vine and cheeky chimp came tumbling down. Cheeky chimp wasn’t so lucky this time.

But cheeky chimp didn’t give up, actually he planned much bigger. He decided to go to the big city and steal stuff from the famous laboratory. He swung from vine to vine and branch to branch. But it was dusk and the dark night was closing in. A storm slowly drifted over the jungle. A rolling thunder roared all night and it was hard for the chimp to get to sleep. A Lightning bolt struck and it illuminated the night sky.

In the morning the monkey made it to the city, it was much different from the jungle. The jungle was quiet and peaceful, and in the city cars beeped helicopters roared, boats splashed. Cheeky chimp was lost lonely and sad. He gave up and went back home

He apologised to all the people he stole from and gave their stuff back. The chimp that was the cheeky chimp was now the cheerful chimp.

Story Starter

We used Story Starter to find an exciting topic to write about. Our story starter we used was ' A cheeky monkey who wanted to be invisible!' We all wrote very different stories. We were learning to paint a picture in the readers head as we were writing.
