Grounded!

Dear students,

Imagine that your family has made plans to visit relatives for the holidays. Write about what happens when flights are cancelled because of a blizzard, and you find yourselves stuck in the airport on Christmas Eve. Can your family make the best of a difficult situation?

Be sure to include:
  • a topic sentence
  • supporting details
  • complete sentences
  • correct spelling, capitalization (M.I.N.T.S.), and end punctuation.
  • a closing sentence
  • three of your spelling words

Happy blogging,
Ms. Blackmon

  1. well,when I am a man and I live far away from you family I would drive to the airport. And once I get a call that says the flight will be cancel I would flip out! And I would just call my brother, sister, mom and dad and tell them that my flight was canceled because of a blizzered. That is what I would do.

  2. If I was stuck at the airport on Christmas Eve, I would make the best of it or walk home. Walk home,we would put our jackets on and start walking, but first we would eat at the airport. After we are done eating the snow storm would start slowing down. The rodes would start to clear out,and we would rent a taxi to go home. It would be very late,so once we got home we would have hot chocolate and read The Night Before Christmas. That is what I would do if I was stuck at the airport on Christmas Eve

  3. If I was stuck in an airport on Christmas eve I would start freaking out!!!! I would ask my mom if there is anything fun to do when you are stuck at the airport on Christmas eve. I bet she would probably say, go ask you dad. Well if my mom said that then I would make it fun for myself. Here is some fun things I would do. The first thing I would do to make being stuck in a airport fun is I would do gymnastics in a carpet area. The next thing I would do is play around with our suitcases and take everything comfy and sleep on a chair. After that I would play fun games with my sisters, Gabby and Lily Kate. And the final thing I would do is annoy my parents like crazy!! That is what I would do if I was stuck in a airport.

  4. Like last winter I am again stuck in the airport. I am not happy,but I know I can try my best to be happy. We have food around us, so we can eat, we have electronics that we can play on, and we have fun board games that we can play with. I would try my best to have fun and be happy.

    I would be angry because of the blizzard. I would try to make the most of it by playing my ipad. Then if I could I would go out and play. I could not wait to go home the next morning to open presents. If that really happened I would be so frustrated.

  7. If I was stuck in an airport on Christmas eve, I would be so bummed out! First of all, It would be Christmas eve, and Santa would be coming! Second of all, getting stuck at an airport is one word, BORING. I got stuck in an airport once, it was one of the most boring things I have ever done!

  8. If I was stuck at the airport on Christmas eve, I would freak out! I would play guessing games with my brother, and then after about an hour, the roads would start clearing up, and we would have my grandpa pick us up. Then we would go home, invite my cousins over, and bake Christmas cookies, and we would have hot chocolate. Then my dad would read us the night before Christmas, and we would all go to bed.

  9. Luckily for us, I would come prepared with a bunch of paper, and all I would do would be making origami yoda characters all night. I can't really think of what else I would do in this situation.
