909 - TOPIC

This is my 9-year-old Granddaughters' version:

Ring ring! Break times over kids! Kids are rushing into their seats. Dennis hasn’t finished his apple! “The topic is motors” says Mr Collins. Then he tells us all these boring facts. “Argh! I feel like I’m going to vomit!” says Daniel. The class start to laugh out loud and the teacher has to tell them to stop being noisy.

This is my version:

The dinner that night smelled lovely and tasted delicious. The mariners enjoyed every last mouthful. But before long the eating tables became extra noisy as one by one a mariner would vomit up his meal. Unbeknown to the cook, something mildly poisonous had found its way into the cooking pot. The mariners recovered within a day, but it was an unpleasant time for them. The poor cook felt that all eyes were glowering at him even though it wasn't his mistake. The whole episode became the topic of many a conversation during the next couple of weeks.
