The Zoo Animals |
It was a Friday afternoon and the sun was shining. It was time for show-and-tell. Gina Crosby went first and she brought in a rock from Africa. It is so cool. It was shiny and it was so soft and smooth. It was just so pretty. Gina was being a show-off because she thought her show-and-tell was the coolest and better than everyone else's. Everybody was whispering so the teacher couldn't hear them, "That is so cool" and "I wish I had that."
It was the end of the day and we were on the bus going home. I got home and I called my friend Amber and asked her if she wanted to come over. Amber replied "I will come over after my hockey." "What time is your hockey over at?" I said to Amber. Amber shouted, "It is over at 6:00 so I will be over at 7:00 because I have to shower. I have to go to hockey now. Bye." It felt like it was a day until she got to my house. Me and Amber have been best friends since we were 4 years old. The next day I went to Heather's house because she lives right next to me. Heather's mom opened the door and Peanut (her dog) jumped right into my arms. I asked her mom, "Would Heather be able to come out and play at my house?" Kelly whispered because she just woke up "Yes, she can go over to your house for a couple of hours. I will go and get her." When Kelly came back downstairs she said, "She just has to brush her teeth." I waited at the door for about 5-6 minutes then she finally came downstairs. Heather said to me, "I'm all ready to go to your house." Me and Heather walked to my house. We were at my house in my room and Heather was so happy she shouted, "I have the greatest idea!" I shouted "WHAT, WHAT IS YOUR GREAT IDEA IDEA!" Heather was still shouting "We can bring in zoo animals for show-and-tell and that is way cooler then a rock from Africa." I said, "That is a fantastic idea Heather, YOU ROCK!"
So on Monday before school we went to the zoo and we asked Heather's aunt if we could take some of the animals to school. Heather's aunt said, "Sure, go ahead!" So we took a elephant, tiger, and a giraffe. Heather's aunt is so nice she will let her do anything. Me and Heather got to school befoer the teacher so we had all the animals in the class. When the teacher walked in about 5 minutes later she stoped and just fainted. After about 5-6 minutes she got up and her face was as red as a tomato. Ms.B was yelling her head off, "What in the tarnation is going on there?" I kinda whispered because I thought we were in big trouble. "We brought them in for show-and-tell Ms. B." Ms.B was shouting "What were you thinking girls!" The rest of the class came and sat down like nothing was there. When the class sat down the teacher said in a weird voice "This is Heather and Emma's show-and-tell class." The class said things like "ooo" and "aah."
It was about 1 hour into the class and we heard the principal coming. As quickly as we could we pushed the animals into the closet. We had a lot of trouble getting the elephant in the closet . The principal came in and yelled, "What in the tarnation is going on in there? I heard a lot of noise coming from here!" Everybody was saying "nothing, nothing no nothing is in there." So the principal left and the animals broke the closet door and fell out. Some of the kids looked out the door to see if anyone was there. Nobody was there so we got all the animals out but we couldn't get the elephant out. So we got all them back in again. We put the animals into the corner and the class tried do decide what to do with them.
We walked the animals back to the zoo and Ms.B told Heather's aunt to never let us take them again. We walked back to school and the teacher wrote my mom a note. At the end of the day I brought the note to my mom and she said "That must have been a great day." I laughed and said, "IT WAS MOM"!
