Free Write #3

Explain in detail your favorite Halloween or trick or treating experience. Explain who you went with, your costume, and any other details that made it your favorite/best halloween.

I love to go trick or treating around my neighborhood with some of my best friends and family members.
I had a lot of funny Halloween experiences. On a cold Fall Halloween night I was going trick- or- treating with my friends and family member. Each kid had a big bag filled with tasty, yummy Halloween treats. We were hit headed to one house that had a lot of spooky Halloween decorations in the front yard. When my brother and I was half way up the drive way we noticed a scary guy in a mask on the side of the garage. We thought it wasn’t real so my brother and I just kept walking to say trick or treat to get our candy because we like candy. When the nice lady gave us the yummy Halloween candy we turned around and right in front of us was the scary guy in the mask that was by the garage door. My brother and I were so scared so we ran behind the guy and down towards my dad to go to the next house for candy. But when we were done getting the candy from the next house the scary guy in the mask was still following us. So my brother thought it was funny to say to the guy “ You don’t scare me and my sister and if you are scared come after us". When my brother said that I was about to hit him because the guy scared me and not my brother.
I went trick or treating as a clown. I was wearing a colorful, frizzy, clown hair. I wore a colorful shirt and tennis shoes.
I loved this halloween but if was not my favorite halloween.

I love the season fall because of the colors and how you can see the trees changing colors. The leaves are so pretty and I love to see the leaves fall off the trees. My favorite fall activity is to rake leaves in my front and backyard and make a big pile of the colorful leaves and run as fast as I can and jump into the brown, red, orange, and dark green fall leaves. I have a lot of people I love to do my favorite fall activity jumping into big pile of leaves. They are my neighbor named Cecilia that is in 5th grade and my brother named Matthew who is in 6th grade and sometimes the little girl my mom baby-sits named Jenika who just started kindergarten. All my friends I do my favorite fall activity all go to Perry Schools. I do my favorite fall activity anytime of the day i'm in the mood to run and jump into a big colorful pile of crunchy fall leaves. Here are the steps of how I do my favorite fall activity. First, I rake almost every leaf in my yard. Then, I rake the colorful leaves in a big pile on the side of my house. Next, I make a head start from behind the colorful fall leaves. Then, I run as fast as I can toward the pile and I jump in the pile! Last, I have to rake the colorful fall leaves all up so I can have as much fun as I had the first time doing my favorite fall activity raking the colorful fall leaves and jumping in the pile. That is what I do in my free time and that’s my favorite fall activity in the world. I can’t wait until more colorful leaves fall off my trees in my back yard.
