The Magic Box

The magic box

Today in room 7 Miss Ashley showed us a box. It wasn’t just an ordinary box it was a magic box. So Miss Ashley introduced what we had to do.

What we had to do was that we first get blindfolded and then Miss Ashley puts something inside the magic box and we had to find out what it was.We had to use our other senses to figure out what was the subject.

All the students took turns.It felt forever as I waited.It was finally my turn.I felt so nervous when miss ashley put the blindfold on me. I was starting to question myself is it going to be gross? Or was it gonna be hard or soft? Finally Miss Ashley said “ go” so I started to feel the subject. I was surprised because it wasn’t an object it was a food. Finally it was a food because my stomach was hungry and also I didn't had any breakfast.

It felt so hard and rough. It was very breakable and it tasted like doritos.When I bit into it my mouth made a “ crunch “ noise.I took another bite and another and another until my tongue felt like it was on fire! It was really spicy! Then I told Miss ashley, I gave up then she took of the blindfold  and told me that it was corn chips. Then I replied “ That was what I was thinking in brain”.

I really enjoyed this activity. It was really funny and it helped us by our learning by practising our describing words.

The magic box

Today in room 7 Miss Ashley presented us a box. It wasn’t just an ordinary box it was a magic box. So Miss Ashley introduced to us what we had to do.

What we had to do was that we first get blindfolded and then Miss Ashley puts something inside the magic box and we had to find out what it was.We had to use our other senses to figure out what was the subject.We did this because it helped us to write our describing recount.

All the students took turns.It felt forever as I waited.It was finally my turn.I felt so nervous when Miss Ashley put the blindfold on me. I was starting to question myself is it going to be gross? Or was it gonna be hard or soft? Finally Miss Ashley said “ go” so I started to feel the subject. I was surprised because it wasn’t an object it was a food. Finally it was a food because my stomach was hungry and also I didn't had any breakfast.

It felt so hard and rough. It was very breakable and it tasted like doritos.When I chewed into it made a “ crunch “ noise.I took another bite "crunch,crunch,crunch"! until my tongue felt like it was on fire! It was really spicy! Then I told Miss ashley, I gave up then she took of the blindfold  and told me that it was corn chips. Then I replied “ That was what I was thinking in brain”.
