Our space adventures!

Today for writing we watched a short movie about a boy who made a space ship and went for an adventure.
After watching, we discussed where we would like to go in a rocket ship and who we might meet.

BLAST OFF! I’m in my rocket ship. I am going to an ice cream world. It was cold and gooey. On the way home I stop at Nan and Granddad’s house. I took jam and cream ice cream.

I went to space and I saw a crater and I went to Jupiter. On Jupiter I saw a green slimy monster with 8 eyes.
