What do you THINK?

(As you are experiencing VR tell your audience in detail what you are thinking using sequence words. First, Next, Last)

First, I saw some big trees and it looked like a jungle or a forest.. Next, I saw a building that was really cool because if it was tinier then you could maybe make it into a bird house and just because it looked like a bird house.. Last, I saw some people they were about to hike up the trail i think? I didn’t really see where they were headed up to but I thought this whole thing was cool…

By: Caden And Sammy S.

 

Hi, i’m Sammy and Caden and we are going to tell you a imaginative , I hope you enjoy.

 

Once there was only day people were getting tired but there couldn’t take a nap when it’s all bright and colorful so there eyes were dying. In a far away land there was night but only for a little bit of the day. But nobody ever traveled there. But every one wants to go there, But they don’t know how to get there. They tried to swim there but it didn’t work then they tried to drive a bout there and that worked so almost everyone started moving there were 50,000 people living where there was only day but they moved to where there’s day and night But there was one person left there were there’s no night because everyone took the bout so that one person had to find another way to get there that person saw one little caner and he took that there. They were all so happy
