Writing - Tala and I.

Today in writing, 8Bh had to watch a music video called Happier. There were 2 main characters in the music video which was a girl and a golden retriever. We had to write a background story about the video and write like we were the girl or the golden retriever. I thought this task was fun because, we got to be creative and be someone else when writing the background story. I liked this task very much and it was really fun to do! Here is what I have done so far:

Tala and I.

Today, I am having a birthday party and all I can feel right now is anxiety. Kids running around and parents chatting. One of my family members was putting down my cake in front of me. It looked so I delicious I could almost eat it! I was about to blow out my candles, but some other kid blew them out for me. I teared up. Not everyone liked me. My uncle gave me a box with a yellow bow in it, but it didn't seem it was for me. I put the bow on the table. When I looked up, my sadness disappeared and my happiness took over my whole body! My uncle was walking towards me with the most adorable golden retriever in his arms! The golden retriever was in my arms at last. I called her Tala, which means gold. My uncle measured Tala and I was against the wall, so I could remember how tall she was when I first met her. 

Many years after, I grew up as a teenager. High school wasn't very easy for me. It was hard to make friends and it was hard to be happy. One day, Rachel and Lani was picking which girl would be on their soccer team.

  1. Hi Faith!

    You got some great work done today, I am impressed with your commitment. My favourite part was tying all your 'clues' together.

    I like how you named the golden retriever, Tala, which you explained means Gold. I also notice that you coloured your font a golden-yellow colour. I am sure this was purposeful and it is really effective to make your piece stand out.
