BR 1-6: A new classroom

"Something is wrong" said Biff.

     I read A new classroom. The book written by Roderick Hunt and Alex Brychta. Some people came to the school. They put a fence across the playground. The children looked at the fence. "What is it for?" asked Wilf. Nobody knew. A lorry came tothe school. It had blocks on it. Than a digger came. The children were excited. Mrs May looked at the trench. "it's for a new classroom," she said. The children were excited. They wanted to find out about the new classroom. Wilf found a book about diggers. Chip painted a picture of one. Mrs May took the children outside. They talked about the digger. Mrs May took a photgraph. Then a crane cameto the school. The children were excited.They looked at the driver. "What is the crane for?" asked Biff. "Wait and see," Mrs May. The child watched the crane. It lifted the classroom over the wall. Everyone watched the classroom. "Don't drop it," called Chip. Biff looked at the classroom. Something was wrong. "Mrs May! Mrs May!" called Biff. "Don't shout, Biff," said Mrs May. The crane put the classroom down. It put the classroom on the blocks. Something was wrong. "Mrs May!" called Biff. "Something is wrong." "Don't shout, Biff," said Mrs May. Everyone gasped. The classroom was upside down. "Oh dear!" said Mrs May. "I said something was wrong," said Biff. "But nobody would listen." The crane put the classroom the right way up. The children wanted to look inside. The children went inside. Wilf saw a door. "What's in here?" asked Wilf. Everyone gasped. "Oh no!" said Wilf.
