The Christmas Monster!!

By Dinora S, Columbia Explorer's Academy

One day it was Christmas. I slept in the couch. I was 5 years old. I slept. Then I heard a sound, it was very loud. I got outside. It was an alien. It had a beard. I thought it was fake. I took off the mask, it was a huge gigantic monster and it was ugly too. It smelled very very bad. I ran and he was trying to eat me. But it did. It smelled very bad. The water was very green. I was in the water, my skin was a skeleton! THE END

This Should Not Happened

By Tiana J, Columbia Explorer's Academy

I believe that we don’t have to have Isat every year because kids don’t need no isat stress on them it does not matter if kids need to know more. They could go in books and learn isat is doing something to or heard that it is very bad because kids fail and kids passed and the kids who fail feel really sad and atrocious. It makes them feel bad about their selves. Kids who need help don’t need to maked fun of. And another reason about there should not be isat every year is that kids have to do that grade again. And kids are about 10 years old and in third grade and they feel really bad.

Untitled (T Rex Eats Zombies)

By Francisco V, Loyola Park After School Program

I woke up in the morning.  I have pet dinosaur.  He is a T-rex.  His name is Rex.  Zombies started coming out of the trees, and cars and dogs.  I was dreaming.  I was enjoying the dream.  It was a little bit creepy.  I took the pet T Rex out and unhooked his leash and he started eating the zombies and zombie dogs.  The zombies got scared.  Rex was hungry.  Zombies are Rex’s favorite food.  The whole time I just watch him eat.  I strapped a carriage on the back of Rex so I can ride around and watch him eat.  The aliens put the carriage on Rex for me so I can keep Rex fed and full of meat.  If Rex doesn’t get meat he goes to sleep.  Rex has great eye sight and can see really far.  The End?
