The Gummy Bear Takeover

As the incredible coloured gummy bears walked down the path, only one gummy was brave enough to take the last step! The huge gummy bear towered over the army of tiny squishy cute gummy bears like a skyscraper! He was the only one who was brave enough to stand up to the flavoursome gummy bear eating monsters such as humans! But he was losing! One by one the humans were eating the tropical gummy bears even if the gummy bears were using the worst weapon of all, bad TASTE!!! The skyscraper only had one thing to do, he was going to…….RUN!!!! “Abandon cupboard!” He yelled out to all his friends, but it was too late, all of them were eaten! He watched in misery as all of his mouth watering friends were dissolving in the humans mouth!

Summarise

For inquiry I summarised an article. I read the article and picked out the main parts. I wrote these ideas in a shorter way, using my own words . The article is about the amazing author Michel Bush! This is my summary. Michel Bush is an awesome children’s author, who has won many prizes as Music With Michel, the lady who puts smiles on children’s faces!

Elsie Locke

Elsie Locke

1912-2001

Elsie Locke was an author to many brilliant books, such as Two Peoples, One Land and The Runaway Settlers, which was her most successful book. But she wasn’t always an author, she fought for women’s rights, the environment, peace, and many more.

 

In the 1940’s, she spent a long 2 years in hospital with spinal tuberculosis, but that didn’t stop her! She spent most of her time making poems, magazine articles and radio talks. Elsie was always trying to make New Zealand a better place.

 

She made a really good impression. School journal writer David Hill said: “I’m 6 feet tall. Elsie is … well, rather less than 6 feet tall. So how come when we meet, I always look up to her?” He said this because not only did she fight for herself, she fought everyone!
