Tall-Tale-Project

Page history last edited by Mr. Curran 15 years, 3 months ago

We started our project by working at several "Exaggeration Stations." Students were encouraged to be as silly and creative as possible. Here's a sampling of what they came up with...

 

CREATED LAWS--Laws we'd have if it were up to us...

 

You can't be in a pool with a rat chewing bubble gum.

 

You can't take a bath between December and May.

 

No smoking or you go to jail forever.

 

No mixing pop with water.

 

If your name starts with a K you have to fly a kite.

 

It is illegal to not go to jail.

 

CREATED WORDS--Words not in the dictionary. But maybe they should be...

 

Maneaticitis--A person that is crazy and in a coma.

 

Hipotitish--A cold that you catch that turns you into a hippo.

 

EXCUSES--Crazy reasons for crazy things...

 

Excuses why my homework isn't done...

 

Because I got home and was jumping on my trampoline and I jupmed to the moon and forgot it.

 

Because a big spider picked up my car and crushed it (after I got out).

 

Someone beat me up.

 

A dog ate it and then I got carjacked.

 

My little brother was eating paper and he picked that up by mistake.

 

Excuses why my room is a mess...

 

The U.S. and Iraq were having a war in my room.

 

Because a dragon flew in.

 

Because I was looking for some money for baseball tickets.

 

Excuses why there's a big blob of green jell-o in my backpack...

Because we had it for dinner and I needed a snack for school.

 

Because I stuffed my bag with Cheetos and I didn't have enough cheetos so I put the jell-o in there. (It's moldy that's why it's green).

 

Because I get hungry after 3:00.

 

Excuses why I'm keepoing a munchkin in my closet...

 

Because I went to a magical land, bought a munchkin, and put it in my closet to surprise my mom.

 

Because if my brother comes in my room, it will kick him.

 

Because they do my work and other stuff.

 

Because he wants to eat you alive in your bed.

 

Because you always told me to be selfless so I'm giving him a home.
