Wonderful Writing from Year 3 and 4 Students

The Orange Crystal

Wallop, I fell onto the ground like a horse tripping me from its hooves. I suddenly turned around to see what I had tripped on. It was this bit of orange crystal, it completely stood stark in the ground. I pulled it out.

"That's kauri gum" said my neighbour Brice. He collected a lot of kauri gum. He had one that was as big as a middle-sized turtle. My neighbour's dog Donny kept sniffing at it like a dead pheasant. I gasped in disbelief.

When I came home I thought it must be a spectacular treasure to who had one. Once I washed the dirt off it I would always remember it as the orange crystal.
