This week I have done a writing about if I was a butterfly.
One stunning sunshine day I woke up and skipped all the way to the bathroom delighted to see myself as a Butterfly. I could not be a butterfly at school. So I flew on a teacher's head so all the children would giggle, The kids got told off for laughing when they were not supposed to, all of a sudden 3 evil wasps came in. I had to fight with my friends because the were butterflies too, I thought for a long time while looking at the Glorious sky, amazingly I got an idea I flew spinning around to find my friends “hi” I said in delighted “hi Livia” they all said with a smile on there faces. I told them what happened because they were butterflies too. We raced all the way to the classroom, we got in one of the kids who were already stung. We fight till we beat them down, I was so puffed after but we won the battle and the kid that got stung calmed because the fight made him happy so was the teacher and the whole class.After that tiring fight I woke up to see the glorious sun and to see myself back to normal and to see my friends and class all back to normal.
