Planting Pumpkin
One day, Jack’s friend James invited him to have dinner with their family after school. Jack and James walked together after school to Jack house to have dinner. They had pumpkin soup, it was Jack’s first time eating pumpkin soup.
After the scrumptious dinner,the two boys raced to James’s room. They were so full that they couldn't move. The next day at school Jack invited James to his house this time. They finished school early, so they walked to Jack’s house. Jack remembered that he brought some pumpkin seeds. The first thing that popped in his mind was to grow pumpkins in his backyard. Jack asked his father if he could help them plant pumpkins at their backyard.
They put the pumpkin seeds inside the hole, and then they covered it with soil all around the pumpkin seeds, then they poured water onto the seeds. They finished planting the pumpkin, then they went back inside and waited for the pumpkin to grow bigger.
Jack, James and the father took good care of the pumpkin seeds they grew everyday, morning and afternoon. They waited for 3 month’s nearly 4, they waited until the pumpkin seeds turn into flower, then turn into pumpkins, and then they have to wait until the pumpkin grew bigger.
Finally after 4 months had past, Jack and his father went to check if the pumpkin was ready. Had it turned into a real pumpkin.
“Wow”, said Jack. Dad looked at a pumpkin, his dad was surprised too, because the pumpkin was so big and it had turned a beautiful orange colour.
Jack and his father were having trouble trying to get the pumpkin out of the soil, they tried their best and finally it came off. They took the pumpkin inside the house, so that they can make pumpkin soup for their family dinner.
Jack, James and his father were having fun making the pumpkin soup. Jack’s dad was cleaning the pumpkin, then he cut it into big pieces, then he gave them to Jack to cut them into little pieces. They finished cutting the pumpkin, then they added vegetables to it. They finished making the pumpkin soup, then got everything ready for dinner.
This is my pumpkin story, Mrs Kiri Kirkpatrick has shown us 5 picture of a boy and his father planting pumpkin. We had to write a story about the 5 picture but we have to put them in our own word.
