Joelle

I live in the woods. My school just hits the border of the woods. Almost anything you can predict happens but there was one thing that even I couldn't predict.

Thursday night was Open House ( the first parent teacher meeting) and everything has to be perfect. I was writing a note for my mother, in my writer's note book when I remembered that every time last year in second grade there was the class art work pouring over the walls and pooling up on them. I raised my hand to ask my teacher (Mrs.Mikkelsen) if I could see where my art work was on the walls. I raised my hand and so did Leah.

"O.K. Leah." Came Mrs.Mikkelsen's voice.

"Can I go to the bathroom?" said Leah.

"Leah," said Mrs.Mikklesen. "You know you have to put one finger up for that but...O.K."

Kerrigan raised her hand.

"Yes you can talk." Mrs.Mikkelsen told Kerrigan.

"Can I go help Madd..."

"Of course!" interrupted Mrs.Mikkelsen.

At last she came to me.

"Yep Joelle!" said Mrs.Mikkelsen in a happy voice.

"Can I go see where my art work is on the walls?" I asked.

"I don't know if they'll be looking at the class art work but ... o.k."

I rushed to the hall of art when something caught my eye. The office was right in front of me but with relief nobody was there. I tiptoed past the office just in case somebody was there just where I couldn't see them. Finally, I got to the hall of art, but...but there was no art work on the walls, in the halls, the art room, or anywhere! Suddenly, something caught my eye and dragged me to it. There was a poster but... why wait? Trying to read each and every fancy cursive word when you could just hear it instead!

Suddenly I saw two teachers talking, they said something about art work that I couldn't quite make it out.

"Artzzz ppp zzzisss gone!"

"I zzxxonder zzz why? ZZZ said xxxxzzzfpotosterx!"

I rolled my eyes. "Dinosaur dung! Could you guys mmm....I don't know...make sence! Oops!" I didn’t to say it aloud!

"What the heck was that?" wondered the teachers.

I ran toward the room. Then saw the office and people were I looked behind me. I saw an angry teacher mob behind me.

"I'm dead dinosaur meat!" I thought. O.k. O.k. If I ran past I'd get in trouble for running. If Mrs. Reynolds saw me if I walked past she's SO going to see me. At this time I can't be out of class! Some choice! Luckily I took dance class so I could do a really big jump.

WOOSH! WOOp! Screechench! I jumped up and landed perfectly!

I rushed backed to class, pressed the wheelchair button, and sat in my seat.

I took out my bio poem and finished it so I would have at least one thing done.

Suddenly, I had a great idea. I took out my Writer’s Notebook and started writing in it. About half hour latter I finished and it is the story you are reading today!
