BAD SMELL

Four days ago my August 09 100family and I were cleaning the house, until we smelt this really bad smell. It smelt like there was a fire in the house. We have a light and flies get caught in it so we thought it was a fly.  It got really bad so dad told mum to ring 111, she called them, we asked for the fire trucks and they said to turn off the lights and to evacuate  the house and this was in the night and it was freezing.  So they told us to turn the lights off  because my family and them thought the lights were burning ,so I had to grab some pants and I had to get changed outside and I couldn’t see. Dad brought out a candle, Mum said that’s dangerous and she started laughing. We heard the sirens, they were loud. Two fire trucks came and six firefighters got out of the tucks, it was cool.  My sister Maddie was embarrassed cause she was thinking that the firefighters would think we were scared of a fire, but there was none and there wasn’t even any smoke. Two of my neighbours came down and wondered what happened, we told them they were amazed. We had to wait outside for ten minutes it was so long ,but fun.  The trucks’  lights were making the tree turn red and the trees shadow. So when the trucks’ lights  flickered on and off the tree would, it was really scary. I was getting bored so I started making fingerpuppets on the fence, Iwas making dog shapes.  A few minutes later Dad came out, the firefighters left in their Firetrucks.  Dad said that the firefighters wanted us to call them if it got worse but when we got inside it smelt better, but that’s what we thought.  The smell was up stairs and it went all in my room for some reason and I know now, it’s because I left my door open.  Still we didn’t know where the smell was coming from. We went to the stove to get our dinner and behind it there was a pot and it had a burnt spoon handle and the handle is plastic and the spoon was metal.  So what had happened was that the air conditioning had sucked up the bad smell and blew it out of the other fans which blew all the bad smell all around the house. So then what happened  was Dad washed it and I took it to school.

About Jordan

Hi my name is Jordan.  I have three sisters, I am the oldest kid and the only boy in my house.  I have blond hair, hazel  eyes and a freckle on my nose.  My birthday is on the 11th of May, but I was supposed to be born on the 1st of May.

My avatar is about me in front of a Dragon.  I chose the Dragon because it is the symbol of the year I was born.

Early Days of Sir Edmund.

This video shows some of the events with pictures that we talked about while we were making our summaries of Sir Edmund’s earlier life.

This is another way for photos to be shown. Mrs G uses this one so I have included it so that we can decide which ones we like.

Work we did on vocabulary for our Hillary unit.

Bubbleshare has closed its doors.  So I am experimenting with other sites to see what they have to offer and to see what suits.  The working together post is one and this is the second one.
