Trolls in peril!
Once, in a tiny village, there lived two tall trolls, they were loving and kind. They were called Hailey and Bailey. They could do almost everything but they could not go in the sunlight or they would instantly turn into a waterfall.
One nasty night, when almost everyone was asleep, they were playing monopoly. Above them, they could see the dark, blue sky. Below them, they could see the sparkling, crystal clear stream.
Midway through their monopoly match, they saw masses of hikers drowning in the freezing cold stream. But Bailey and Hailey knew they should help. Unfortunately, there were crocodiles!
At the speed of light, Hailey and Bailey attempted to save them and fortunately they managed to! Hailey told the hikers to not go hiking at night. And Bailey was helping the other hiker dress their wound, not knowing time was ticking… But the twins helped the hikers to make a new map.
In an instant, the morning sun rose in the blue sky. The trolls had teary eyes as soon as they saw it. Unfortunately they instantly turned into a waterfall, as the hikers watched with fear in their eyes.

The emotional trolls
On a cliff surrounded by mountains that were impossible to climb, there lived two trolls called Ccat and Ddog. They were warm hearted. They were sad only because they would turn to a waterfall if they saw the sunlight.
Under the windy breeze, they were playing horror games. The heavy clouds faded away, lightning struck from the sky.
Ccat and Ddog saw a group of sailors, they were going to crash into the mountain which was their home. Then BAM BAM BAM! Tears swept over Ccat and Ddog.
They ran like a flash! Ccat and Ddog had worked together. Ccat pounced and Ddog swam under the boat to make it steady for Ccat to save them. They did it! But time was ticking.
Then the sun replaced the moon. Oh no aaaaaargh they cried. Then instead of stone, their cries turned them into a waterfall. The first ever waterfall…

The protective trolls
Once upon a time, there lived two trolls. They lived near a cave in Iceland. Their names were Freddy and Chicka. They were soft hearted and loving. They had a warning, not to go into the sunlight or they would turn into the tallest rock in the world.
One windy night, Freddy and Chicka were having a midnight snack. In the sky, the dancing hail hung in a cloud above their head and below them the ground was covered in frost and glinted dangerously.
In the distance, Freddy and Chicka saw a group of walkers busy on their phones and walking the wrong way, they were going to fall down a cliff. They both decided to go and help the walkers.
Speedily, Freddy and Chicka ran to the cliff to save the walkers. Freddy and Chicka gave the walkers a map to look for their car. Time was fleeting. After some time, they saved the day like superheroes.
The moon was wearing down and the sun replaced it. Without notice, the sun climbed into the sky and started to glimmer. They were so angry that they ran out of time. Their bodies stiffened up and a rock started to grow out of their mouths like a baby. They turned into the tallest rocks in the world.

A descriptive setting paragraph from Leah in 3J
One night, when the stars filled the sky, Poppy and Lavindar were throwing sweets into their mouths while playing monopoly deal. Above them, they could see the grey clouds that were unleashing their heavy load with drops equivalent to bullets. They fell to the ground like melting chips of ice. Underneath them, the ground was damp, like a muddy, mossy soup.
This half term year 3 have been looking at Levers and Linkages in D&T. We made an oscillating mechanism which had a lever and an output. Our output moved from side to side. The output was a hybrid mythical creature inspired from the Egyptian myth Theseus and the Minotaur. We designed the output to help King Minos because he had lost the Minotaur from the labyrinth. We had lots of fun creating the mechanism even though it was a little bit tricky! We even got to design the background for the monster.
Yesterday we got to meet the amazing and funny Professor McGinty. He is a time traveller and came to tell us all about Ancient Egypt. We learnt so much from him.
Professor McGinty allowed us to see and hold some real Egyptian artefacts, we were fascinated by most but terribly scared of the scarab beetles! We were even allowed to dress up as Egyptian kings and queens.. here are some photos from yesterday.
