Alcatraz


As you can see, we have a photo for the prompt this week. It is of a real prison cell taken at Alcatraz off the coast of San Francisco in the United States of America.


When people visit they really feel a shiver just thinking what it must have been like to be in there.


Word Challenge Week#24
Things to consider:
  • Why would you be put in this cell?
  • How does it feel to be locked up?
  • Is it possible to escape? Could you think of a plan?
  • What is special about Alcatraz?
Remember if you are in the 5 Sentence Challenge Club you need to complete your challenge also.

100 Word Challenge Week 7 Response


100 Word Challenge

 

Vroom! The plane lands at the Bundi airport. Greg jumps off and makes his way through the airport and buys a ticket for the bus to McDonalds.

Along the way the bus breaks down and all the passengers have to make their way off. Greg finds a nice bench to sit on and read his book on.

While he was reading a bronze coloured man walked over and sat on the bench as soon as he sat down he went as solid as a rock. Greg says to him “hello”, he answers back, “nice to meet you”.

Answer:  16 fantastic years

Question: "why did you choose swimming over any other sport?"
 
Answer: It was recomended as a treatment for asthma

Question: " what is the code you stand by when you teach or swim?"
Answer:

  • remember the aqua code
  • look after your self and your mates
We were very lucky to have someone so qualified to teach us how to swim, we thank her for her time and commitment over the 2 weeks.
