The writing I did on Monday using the brainstorm was this.

On Friday the teachers get very tired, grumpy and lazy, from the children. The children get bored and hangry, the teachers get impatient and let the kids do whatever they want. Children acting as roaring lions and thumping elephants, messy pigs, tall giraffes and scary panthers.

The writing on Tuesday was this.

Chapter One: Charlotte

One freezing rainy day a beautiful young girl called Charlotte was stuck inside a tall tower with her stepmother Ava. Her short fluffy strands of brown hair smoothly brushing her freckled face. Her stepmother heaves her into the air giving her a big hug, Charlotte’s long blue and yellow gown dancing in the cold whipping wind. Ava announces that she brought Charlotte her favourite donut flavour… chocolate with sprinkles! “ Oh thank you!” Charlotte says. Her dress flows back to its normal curvy shape. Ava tells Charlotte that she brought a deep fryer and donut ingredients so they can make them lots. 

The writing on Wednesday was this.

Make a wish...

In space the stars sparkle like sparkly diamonds. Looking out through the telescope she sees a shining star “as bright as a diamond” she says to the star expert next to her. “I’ll call this one Jupiter after you!” the expert tells her. “OOH, I see a shooting star! Quick, make a wish!” Jupiter says. “I wish” Jupiter cuts him off “NO don’t say it out loud otherwise it won’t come true!” “Ok.” In his head the expert says “I wish I could find Mars.” 

1 month later… 

Agent 12 please enter the rocket. Agent 12 zips up his astronaut suit and steps up onto the ramp of the rocket. It’s his first time going to space at 50km per minute. He is scared but so excited because he might see Mars! He thinks back to that time when he was with Jupiter, no not the planet the girl who was a shooting star and they made a wish each. 

Into space…

The sky is as bright as a diamond with dark patches like a tub of cookies and cream ice cream. Bits of space junk fly in multiple different directions, the red planet is 6,000,0000 kilometers away from Earth. They are 5,000,0000 kilometers away from Earth. Swoosh dodging space junk finally we reach the Red Planet and discharge from the rocket. "YAY FINALLY THE RED PLANET! MY WISH HAS COME TRUE!"
