One day a ballerina was very curious about the world outside and she thought about the balloons that went past. So she went outside and everything was frozen and grey. She didn't know what to do so she ran back into the clocktower and started spinning on tippy -toes and the world went back to normal but she was still wondering who her family was. THE END
ReplyDeleteOne day there was a beautiful dancer and she lived in a clock tower she would open her window every morning to see a bunch of different colour balloons.
ReplyDeleteThen one day the whole place was dark she walked along the path all alone no one around her it was so dark and lonely.
Then when ever she touched something it would glow up the normal colours but when she would take her hand away the balloons would turn grey again.
Then when ever she went in the clock tower and danced every thing would be colourful.
This is because when ever she danced here dress at the bottom has like a screw that fits in the clock tower that makes every thing you can see colourful when she's in the clock tower.

I like a lot of your adjectives Maiya! Can you think of any synonyms and connectives that you could use other than 'then'?
ReplyDeleteThe video shows a lovely cheerful, happy girl who is in fact a very important part of the clock, as she is a cog( a piece of the working clock), when she wanted to leave the clock time had stopped, and as she entered the outside world everything went grey and time stood still... She looked very sad and lonely, as she looks as if she did not have any friends, as she started wander she looked very scared and frightened, she then began to realise that she is not meant to go outside the clock, as everything will stop so she re-entered the clock unhappily and started to dance again like the cogs of the clock and everything went back to normal, this is when the green baloon she touched outside the clock floated back to her as if to say "hello" and you are not alone....The girl finally looked happy and kept dancing ...
ReplyDeleteIt was a beautiful warm summer's day, a pretty girl was dancing in the Clock Tower where she lived.
ReplyDeleteThe bright colours outside her window caught her attention, she moved to the window and opened it where she noticed colourful balloons floating outside.
The pretty dancer knew she had an important job to do but she wasn't sure what it was, the bright colours were distracting her. She saw lots of balloons dancing in the blue sky. The sun shone down and the dancer was eager to be outside in the warm sun. She hurried outside excitedly, as soon as she did her happiness turned into sadness as the colour drained from everything, she touched the balloon and for a moment the colour returned, as soon as she let go to let the balloon float in the sky the colour faded.
The dancer was confused and didn't understand where the colour had gone, she tried again to bring some colour into the balloons but the same thing happened.
She decided to return home to the Clock tower, once inside she knew what she had to do, to return the colour to her world. She placed herself in position and danced slowly the colour started to return and once again everything was as it was at the start.
I agree with you jaina that if she leves the clock tower she frezes
DeleteThere is a girl who lives in the clock tower, and the bottom of her dress is a cog which turns other cogs to keep the clock tower working. One day she leaves the tower to look at the colorful balloons but as she stopped dancing to keep the clock tower working, the world went grey, and even though when she touched something, it would return to its original color , it would go grey when she let go of it. She decided to go back in to the tower sadly, but as she started dancing, and the color came back, a green balloon floated to her, as if they were friends, and she smiled and held the balloon as she danced.
ReplyDeleteThe End!
It is kind of depressing because when she comes out of the clock tower everything
ReplyDeletestops around her it is like, she can't touch anything and if she does it freezes .
Frist it was all in colour [when she was in the clock tower] when she opens the doors it goes black and white and just sits there.
One spring day, the wind swayed the trees a ballerina was dancing. She was dancing to make time flow and the clock tower to work. She wanted to see the world outside the clock tower but she couldn't just leave time. She went outside just to give it a shot but as soon as she stopped dancing time was as still as can be. Everything was as dead as a door nail. She was upset. Why was she the only one that could not see life?. She tried to bring back life but she absolutely was not able to. She was about to cry when she thought about her passion to dance so she ran into the clock tower and started time again. She was delighted to see the glimpse of colour through the window.
ReplyDeleteMoral:
The person who thinks they are ruthless are ussually are the important ones. Do not think about the things you are bad at, think about the good one. Always look straight and think positively.

In this, a little girl is inside the clock tower and is one of the important pieces of the gears and chains. She really wants to see the amazing outdoor world which she's never seen before. Then she sees that the time has frozen. Then she notices that the colour is gone and everything goes dull and grey. Then she finds out that when she touches things, the colour comes itself. So, miserably, she looks around and feels disappointed. After a while she finds out that she can't come out from the tower and the tower makes the colour appear. So, really gloomily, off she went inside the tower hoping that the colour would come back into the world outside. When she finally went inside, the colours came back and surprisingly it brought a glorious smile back on her lovely face. From down below, the green balloon she touched, came back to her as if it was saying, I'm glad you're happy now, you have a new best friend, me! After that, the little girl had a wonderful smile on her face, she kept on dancing and made the colours go on forever and ever, NO beginning, NO end forever.
ReplyDeleteOne glimmering morning, a beautiful dancer was dancing gloriously in a gigantic clock tower. Every single day she daydreams about going outside and having to go and lay down on the grass,but she CAN'T. The poor girl has to stay in the clock tower making sure that time goes alright.Suddely, she saw so many colourful balloons flying in the air!. She was so excited and ran in a flash. When she got outside her happiness has faded away.The poor dancer came here for nothing. All she could see is darkness and everything frozen. She could feel the darkness inside and she can feel her heart broken. When she touched something the colour showed then she removed her hand it faded away. The girl thought while tears came out of her eyes. Then dancer began dancing and a ballon fled from the window and the girl felt even happier having a ballon with her while she is dancing even though she can't go outside.
