Monday Game Forfeit
Hello everyone!
Please forgive the lateness of this post, but you know how it is during the holidays.
Last Monday, you all did extremely well and got enough book titles listed to make me forfeit. Last week’s word was ‘true’ and you got twenty-six of the twenty-five you needed.
As promised, here is one half of the forfeit. This is a story I wrote in second grade, typed completely with run-on sentences, spelling errors, grammatical errors, and lack of punctuation beyond periods and the one apostrophe.
I hope you enjoy this untitled forfeit… The poem will be coming soon.
Once upon a time a long time ago about 700 years ago there was a castle with a cave by it. There was a lazy dragon in the cave. Going back to the castle there was a knight. He did not do anything becuase there was nothing to do.
But when he heard about the dragon living in the cave next door, He got out his armar and he went to fight the a mean dragon.
He got to the cave. He looked at the dragon. He ran away. When he got to his castle he talked to himself. He said that he had to be brave. I can’t just look at a dragon and say he is to hard to fight.
He got on his armor. He got his horse redy. He went to kill the dragon and he did.
Aww, see? Isn’t that sweet? I knew how to write a moving story even back then.
