Rewriting The Old Man and his Grandson

Hello people,

In fairy tales people we are re writing a Grimms stories of our choice I chose The Old Man and his Grandson. I really like this book.

In a far way village live a wife, child, husband and his father. The father who was really old couldn't hold up his spoon to eat and he spilt it everywhere on the table cloth so kicked him to the floor were a patch of dirt was so when his food fell on the ground it would saock into the ground. There he was trying to eat some chicken in the broth but his wobbly hand drop the spoon which landed on the side of the bowl knocking it over. The little Grandson would try and help him but his parent would scold him telling him to stay away so he had to. One night the old man was sitting in his corner he looked at the happy family while the mum fed the son and tear were let out he was really sad and hungry. 

One day the family was out and about they were getting everyone new bowls and spoons the kid grabbed the old man a bowl it was really small the parent were shocked how they were treating the old man so they sat him at the table every night and didn't get mad at him for spilling food Johnny the kid was really happy seeing that he was treating him fairly but he passed away not to long after they were all sad the husband had been the most beauce that was his dad didn't get to treat him that good. Years had passed the parent had gotten old and spilt there food everything the old man did so he treated them the same because you can never feel the true pain until you in there shoes.

Johnny had his family of one kid and a wife he told her everything his parent did and she was shocked how could someone do that to their own family and she understood what her husband was doing but she still felt bad. One day his parent told him about how sorry they were sorry after that he let them sit at the table and live the rest of their life until they passed a year later. When the funeral happen he put the bowls on the headstone then walked away with a small tear escaping his left eye.

In this story I changed most of it because the kid told his parents that it was a small bowl then they take him to that table and take care of him. I changed the fact that his parent died, and they locked away the parent giving his parent the same treatment as the old man.

Cinderella

Hello people,

Class today we are all rewriting Cinderella. we can add thing or make them different as long as you can tell it is Cinderella.

Once a upon a time there was a little kid born in the hand of her kind mother but she passed away when having her. The father took her couple years later he found a another wife who raised her with the other kid but then the father died while out riding his horse. When the step mother found out she blamed Cinderella and then started treating her different from the two step sisters. It has been years since she has trapped to be a maid at there house doing the: cooking, laundry, feeding animals, and dusting. She was out on a ride on her fathers horses that she was given and meet a lovely man who was also on his she made small talk and she loved him but did not know who he was. She was home dusting then the step sisters ran past with yelling then the step mum came out and explain that it was to a royal ball being held by the king to find his sun a bride. They were getting ready when Cinderella ask to go her mother said no.

They had left while Cinderella cried about not being able to go to the ball but there was a kind  women who came to her then handed her a beautiful dress heels and pearl necklace. Off she went to the ball with a charges and her horse leading the way they made it and when she enter all eye look at her she walked past then the prince found her and danced with her the hole night but she wanted to leave to make it back before her sister that were fuming with rage. When she got away her heel left her foot and she didn't look back for it. The night was over and the sister heard he was looking for someone to fit the shoe so they took knives and cut there heels to shape also there two were off then wrap it in cloths to stop the bleeding. Cinderella was locked in the basement when they arrived but one of the sister bowed to the prince then fainted from the loss of blood.

Cinderella was banging on the floor above her hoping someone will help but they didn't hear her yet. The prince put the slipper on her foot and it had fit he was so happy by her face didn't look anything like her. Then one of the guards heard the voice and banging from the basement and ask to look there then the sister that had the shoe fell faint they took the shoe and noticed blood they unwrapped it to fine no toes and half her heel was gone so they knew she wasn't the right one. When they took off to the basement there was Cinderella once she had the slipper on he was happy about it then he took her to the kingdom they got married and lived happily ever after.

Rapunzel

Hello people,

In class we are reading a Rapunzel story of our choice then answer some questions of fairy tales. 

why do you think texts change overtime,I think so it was more subtle with what chilern were able to read or better punctuation.

How come each version we have read of Rapunzel is different, even though they have been written by the same authors? To have a different ending from the last or experimenting with what people may like better.

What was the same or different in the two versions you read? In the two I have read a prince come to save her from the evil lady but in the other there is more problems to get her when she get relocated and the prince is blind.

Fairy tales and Fable

Hello people,

In year 9 we are doing passion projects and I have chosen fairytale and fables where we learn about fairytale or make are own one by the end of the passion projects  we had to define these then add the book or movie that goes with it.

Fairy tale- these are more to do with magic like Beauty and the Beast or the little red ridding hood.

Myths-They are something that is in the history book that happened like Mavi and the sun or Greek Mythology

legends-These are something that happened but there are thing in it that have been exaggerated like Sina and the Eel.

Fables-Where thing that normally don't talk like animals or Bambi and the Ugly Duckling

House plan A

Hello people,

The aim of this was to make a working floor plan. I picked the floor plan A with 5 bulbs I have one bedroom a room for my closet then living room and kitchen with my bathroom and laundry. 

living room-10x5=50m2

Kitchen-10x5=50m2

Bedroom-5x5=25m2          All = 174m2

Closet-5x5=25m2

Bathroom-4x6=24m2

There's 200 going through each line I have one bulb in a room so it get all the 200 but the resistance is 8A. Then there's the other two that are the same so they each get 50 resistance but 10 split between the voltage.

I didn't enjoy doing all the working out but I really like putting all the stuff and making the drawing of it up. If I were going to do this again then I would not pick another house because this one is really easy and I would keep the same amount of bulbs.
