Dear Mum and Dad, I have been here for 4 months now.

I'm missing my job as a  teacher.

I also miss you.

I'm at Gallipoli.

We came on a warship.

Trenches are the worst they stink and the food we eat is stale
and mouldy food. Soldier’s are fighting soldier’s and bodies are
in the trenches.

There are rats stealing our food.

I care and I don't care because it’s stale and mouldy.

the food tasted grubby and yuck like it’s been there for 12 million years
when dinosaurs were still alive.

But it was only 4 months old.

When i first touched the bed it was kind of nice except it was very
uncomfortable i’ll probably be back in 1918 so see you then

From Joshua

At home there was a lot of work.

They would make sure that everything was spic and span for when people
came over to sleep there for the night.

The next day at home people had to wash up when they woke up.

Then they would get changed and they would see birds outside their window.

They would have breakfast which would be Cereal, eggs on toast, porridge
and all the stuff you eat in the morning.
After breakfast you’d have to go somewhere like
school, work, places that you do work.
then you would go home and get changed out of your uniform or suit.
Then you would eat dinner, do something and go to sleep.

The next day you would do the same thing all over again. but instead of going
to school or work it would be the holidays meaning you can go to all kinds of
places.
Like the beach, the theatre, a show, the circus and all kinds of places that are
fun.
Then you would probably go by the shop and see new toys like soldier teddy
bears
with little toy cannons.
Board games like chess, bingo, snakes and ladders or trains and what not.

Iceberg Ahead

Watch the video about the iceberg. You are the captain of the Titanic and are having
to make decisions quickly
as you see the iceberg come into view. You need to think about what happens
before, during and after they hit the iceberg. You are
NOT writing about the Titanic sinking just hitting the iceberg.

Start Writing below:

The captain has been told by Frederick fleet that a huge ICEBERG IS AHEAD
then the captain tells me to go do something to prevent the iceberg from hitting the
Titanic i pulled a lever that told the people in the Engine room and the other
Engine room that we where in danger then someone
told the captain to go starboard which
means left on a ship so he did but the Titanic wasn’t turning so i
whispered “turn turn turn” and we did thanks to the workers. But the bad thing was that it still
hit on the side. Which scraped the bottom room causing the water to get in the ship.
Once the water was fully in the bottom room the ship SANK and also split in half and only
half of the passengers got out of the Titanic that night but if we turned fully turned. The Titanic
passengers and everything and everyone would be saved.
