The Mice That Ruined My Dream

Chapter 5 First Blood

I only got three hours of sleep because at 6:00am I heard a door slam shut. Ten seconds later I hear I heard intense squeaking.

I ran down stairs and there in front of me was the mouse in the live trap. He ruined my billion dollar dream! He was about four inches long and had a mouthful of peanut butter. He had a fat, brown peanut butter filled body with a dash of black around his eyes. I shivered when I picked the box.

I went to the door, put on my boots and walked to the park. I looked at my watch 6:30am. I opened the door and saw the mouse run out.

I was so proud of my self so I skipped all the way back home. Iwas so happy and then "ding"

I ran to my computer. Two more mice appeared on camera, "what"! I got rid of one and now two more. I needed more traps.

I drove to the hardware store.There were no cars in the parking lot. The store was closed.

I drove back and climbed into my dusty attic, the only thing thing I could smell was mouse poop. The mice were gone

When I got back down I saw a patch of snow. I moved the snow and found a hole. There were also mouse tracks, lots of them. They were gathering wood, I could tell there was bark every ten centimetres.

I followed the tracks, they led to the woods. I took two steps in and they disappeared.

I walked back home. I got in the car and drove to the Home Depot.

I got two more types of live traps and a flashlight

I the drove to Wall Mart and got two jars of peanut butter.

I drove back home , climbed into my attic and set up the traps. When I climbed back down I heard a ding. I looked at my watch , I didn't set an alarm. It took me two hours to realise that it was the computer.

I went to the computer. In the picture this time the mouse was standing in the middle of the trap and was looking at the camera. The snap trap still did not work.

I felt like I was going crazy so I went to bed.

How My Invention Works

My Energy Saving Invention

The Tricyclcar

My machine can travel a medium distance and instead of burning fuel you can use a little hand power. My contraption is as large as a car and looks like a oversized tricycle. A you will sit on the main board and turn cranks that are beside you. The cranks will then turn the wheels . When you get tired you can stop and the wheels can by roll themselves. You can steer by slowing down one wheel and stop by slowing down both. It is also very safe. If a car bumps you in the back the car won't touch you because there will be really hard wood . Also because you have a soft seat so it will not hurt your back. If car crashes into you from the side you will have two large metal wheels that are tightly fitted on. If the front of the Tricyclcar crash you will be three meters away and you have a seat belt do you won't fall forward. This how my invention works.

The Mice That Ruined My Dream

Chapter 4 The Spotting


In my dream now I drove to a massaging centre and got a wonderful massage. I felt so relaxed , I could hear the person's hand banging against my back. I felt like my bones turned pink. When I looked at the person I felt weird, he was a six foot tall creature with bloodshot eyes and razor sharp teeth. He was a mouse ! "Wait what"! I looked around me, I was back in my room.

I got up, got dressed and went down stairs, suddenly I heard a snap! The traps!

I ran into my garage, climbed up the ladder and looked around........ No mouse

I went back into my house and got a slice of bread. I turned on the television and ate my bread with a glass of milk. I was half way into my show and then again "snap"! This repeatedly happened until I saw my camera. I could set it up in my garage

I ran up stairs to get the wires and the instructions. This was a very special camera. It could see in the dark and it has motion sensors so when ever senses something it will take six pictures and email them to me. When ever it does this my computer will make a ding. I fully installed my camera at 6:45pm.

I went into my living room and sat down. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. It was 8:00pm and still the same, I could hear the the clock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock and then suddenly,"ding".

I ran to my computer and saw the pictures, the mouse was standing right on the snap trap and.............nothing. The traps weren't working. This happened twelve times, ding, ding, ding, ding, I stayed up until 3:00am. It stopped and I went went to bed.

Freak The Mighty Connection
So far in Freak The Mighty, Freak and Max have found a damaged purse in a sewer grate and it had ID in it, they found the person that the ID belonged to and gone to their house. The person was Loretta Lee whose husband knows Max's dad. Then they went home.
I can connect to this story because 2 years ago my mom wouldn't let me bike a couple blocks to Kyle's house alone, so I started acting more mature and doing chores when I wasn't asked and my mom let me bike to Kyle's alone. Now she allows me to bike to his house and then head to Harrison Park to play tennis. This is like how Max is now getting treated like an adult because he has been acting like one.

The Mice That Ruined My Dream

Chapter 3 Drastic Measures

The next day when I continued my dream I drove home and then saw paint. I then customised my car. It had flames coming from the wheels and and a bright red stripe on the the top of the car. I was amazed on how cool the car looked and then suddenly the same scratching noise emerged but this time it was fainter. I woke up. I then proceeded with drastic measures, MOUSE TRAPS

I went down stairs, got in my car and drove to the hardware store. There was no traffic because it was only 7:00am.

I looked around and then found the mouse traps, the were in the chistimes section. I got two kinds of snap traps and one kind of live traps.

I drove back home and pulled into my drive way. I got out of my car, got the traps and climbed up my rusty ladder, I could hear the squeaks every step. I set up the traps in the attic and tumbled back down.

I went inside my house, turned on the T.V and watched The Big Bang Theory. Time passed. I fell asleep.

The Mice That Ruined My Dream

Chapter 2 The Ugly Truth

The first thing that came to my was that the noise was a mouse was scratching behind my wall. I calmed down but I was still kind of sad that I didn't really have a billion dollars. I went back to sleep to continue my dream . The word mouse stayed in my head and then it hit! That mouse is going to bite through my house!!!!!! Come on 7:45 in the morning and I have to deal with a mouse.

I got up all slow, took a shower and ate my Froot Loops. I put my boots and a warm winter jacket.

I dragged my self outside and walked around the perimeter of my house , searching for a hole that must of made to get in but there was no hole.

At 6:00pm I Went into the garage. I looked up, got a ladder and climbed up into the attic .

I found small , fresh poop. It was the size of a pellet. It was probilly mouse poop. I went back into my house searched up mouse poop on google images. " That was definitely mouse poop " I thought to my self.

Congratulations!

Good job, class!



Mouse Story

The Mice That Ruined My Dream

Chapter 1 The Morning of My Life

About a week ago when I woke up I realized that I was in a bath tub with a billion dollars in cash. I jumped out of the tub and put the money in five different suitcases

I went down stairs and put the suitcases at the door. I almost crashed into the door my self

I rushed back upstairs and as fast as I can go I took a shower, brushed my teeth and ate my favorite cereal, Froot Loops. I picked up the suitcases and ran out the door.

I put the billion dollars In the trunk and drove to the nearest Nissan store.

I bought the most expensive car they had. It was a bright blue shade with shiny widows. It's top speed was three hundred and eighty kilometers per hour

I drove home and heard an annoying scratching noise. A mouse just made a hole through my tire. The noise was so annoying that I woke up but this time in reality, I could hear my self hyper ventilating but the noise was still there. It was coming from behind the wall.

Chapter 3- Behind The Log Story By Shelby, Wilder And Mackenna

" What is that noise ?" Mackenna asked whispering so what ever it was could not hear her. All of us ran even further into the woods as quiet as we could be. " I think we lost what ever it was" Shelby said. We were all out of breath and huffing and puffing. We needed rest so we found a nice smooth grassy area to sleep for tonight.

Freak The Mighty Prediction By Shelby

Freak The Mighty Connection By Shelby

Connection by Hannah






Prediction by Patrick

In the story 'Freak The Mighty', Max, a giant 7th grader narrates his life and all his troubles, he has a flashback to kindergarten when he met a little boy that he called 'Freak' and how he always pretended he was a robot boy and would make robot noises. He later realizes that the same boy is moving in in the apartment near him.
I predict that Max will head back home, collect himself, go back and try to make friends with 'Freak' and will combine their strengths and become 'Freak the mighty'. I predict this because the story title is 'Freak the mighty' so I believe they will come together in the end and become the mighty. I believe that 'Freak' is really smart and Max is really strong so they will combine and become indestructible.

Connection By Patrick

So far in the story, Max has brought Kevin to the down under (Max's room) and talked to him and has figured out that Kevin isn't a bad person at all but quite nice. In the middle of their talk, they heard someone calling " KEVIN! KEVIN!" and realized it was 'Fair Gwen of Air' and so Kevin and Max came out to have Gwen quickly grab Kevin and plop him into the wagon and run home away from Max.
I can relate to the story because in grade 2 I met Ari in the other class and thought he was a not-so-great kid but then after I got to know him, I learned that he was and still is really nice.
This is just like how Max thought Kevin was weird and mean but after getting to know him, he realized that he wasn't bad.
