The boy that nearly drowned

Thursday 8  March





WALT write a narrative story based on our artwork.

One day there were two boys named Sam and Matt, who lived with their Dad. In the morning they brushed their teeth and packed their stuff to go to the beach. It was a hot sunny day. Sam and Dad were ready, but Mat was not ready at all, so they went and packed his stuff  as well. Finally they were all ready to go to the beautiful beach.   
                                                                                         
When they got there Sam dived straight away into the water. He felt refreshed and alive as soon as he dived in. He splished and splashed and jumped all over the place. All of a sudden Sam realised he had swum out too far. Sam started to panic. He was thrashing in the water which was making him weak. He knew from his swimming lessons at school not to panic. He stopped moving around and put his hand up out of the water, hoping his Dad and Matt would see him. His Dad saw him straight away and raced in the water to save him. The lifeguard saw what was happening and dived into to the water as fast as a cheetah. Sam knew to float on is back and wait to be rescued. The lifeguard reached him first and pulled him back to safety.

Sam was very happy to be alive. The lifeguard said he had done the right thing by floating on his back. Dad and Matt were happy too. They all went home knowing that Sam had used his head in the water and were grateful that he had learned how to stay safe in the water.
They went and they had a great great time at home with their Dad.
