A Moment in Time

Check out some fantastic writing from Room 7.  The students thought of a time that they felt excited, scared, or nervous and wrote about that moment in time.

A Moment in Time

I heard my heart pumping quickly.
I heard people saying jump, jump.
I saw a big rock pool filled up with freezing water.
I saw eels swimming around in the water.
I felt like a ghost when I jumped.
I felt people trying to push me off the edge.
I wondered if I could jump. 
I wondered if I would like it.

A Moment in Time

I heard my heart beating.
I heard the waves.
I saw the nice lake.
I saw the rain zooming down.
I felt excited.
I felt happy.
I wondered what I am I going to do.
I wondered what would happen.

A Moment in Time

I heard the instruments tuning up.
I heard the beautiful Adam!
I saw a violin.
I saw a saxophone.
I felt great.
I felt excited.
I wondered if I would get in the newspaper.
I wondered if I would get on TV.

A Moment in Time

I heard my mom and dad going Poppy don't look down.
I heard it going up and down.
I saw my mum and dad.
I saw the ground below me.
I felt scared.
I felt my heart beating in my chest.
I wondered if I would fall.
I wondered if I would have to jump off it.

A Moment in Time

I heard my car stopping.
I heard friends calling to me.
I saw lots of tents.
I saw a big field.
I felt happy.
I felt excited.
I wondered how things were going.
I wondered what the next day would be like.

A Moment in Time

I heard people saying there is a shark in the water.
I heard big splashes from people diving in.
I saw how high I was jumping.
I saw my dad beneath me.
I felt like diving in but I also felt like running away.
I wondered how big the shark was.
I wondered if I would dare to do it again.

A Moment in Time

I heard my brother saying oh yeah.
I heard my mum saying oh no.
I saw my brother pushing me into the boat.
I saw nothing but pitch black.
I felt my self going up.
I felt so nervous.
I wondered if I would fall out.
I wondered if I would get very wet.

A Moment in Time

I heard the air rushing through my ears.
I heard the engine from outside the window.
I saw the waves bashing on the beach - crash, bang.
I saw the propellers spinning really fast - wow, wow.
I felt the air blowing my hair backwards - woosh.
I felt like going to sleep like Kate did - good night.
I wondered if I would go to sleep.
I wondered how long it would take - I'm bored mum.

A Moment in Time

I heard the engine of the camper van.
I heard the cars behind us.
I saw my sister drawing.
I saw cactus out the window.
I felt bored.
I felt tired.
I wondered if we were there yet.
I wondered if we were going to crash.

A Moment in Time

I heard lots of big words.
I heard that you have to fill the pouches.
I saw that my teacher was very nice.
I saw amazing drawings.
I felt nervous.
I felt excited.
I wondered how do you do this.
I wondered how long it would take.

A Moment in Time

I heard that it started to move.
I heard that it was just about to fly.
I saw out the window that some planes were flying.
I saw that some cookies were next to me.
I felt that I was nervous.
I felt that I was bouncing.
I wondered if I could fly.
I wondered if I loved it.

A Moment in Time

I heard Joanna whispering.
I heard Allie say if we are going to stay up we need some rest.
I saw all the sleeping bags.
I saw Georgina next to me laying awake.
I felt excited it was nearly midnight.
I felt amazed it was midnight and me, Joanna and Allie were awake.
I wondered if I was dreaming but I wasn't.
I wondered if we should have a midnight feast.
