Silly Spelling Stories V

                  The Haunted Sausage Laughed in His Awesome Saucer Made Out of Laundry... 

Dear Reader,

In Silly Spelling Stories V, we composed our stories a little differently:  instead of taking a look at our word list and then launching into our story,  we took the  Refrigerator-Poetry-Magnets approach.

We  first cut out our words and sorted them into nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs. Next, we spent a patient (!)  half-hour moving them around into different combinations on an 11x17 piece of paper. As interesting word combinations emerged and a story began to take form, we taped down our words and added text with a pencil.  We hope that these stories are, for you, more interesting, more surprising, and more enjoyable. It has been fun to mix vocabulary, story-writing, and nine-and-ten-year-old humor.

-  Mr. B's Spellers

  2. The Luxury Car
    by Ian

    One day a magician saw a commercial for a luxury car. The commercial said it had a built-in hutch in the back. It was 89 easy payments of $2,000,000. The magician didn't want to pay that much, so he used his magical prod and turned it into a mascot that made it lower the price of the car. All the magician had to do was straddle the prod and it went to the Sales Manager to lower the price and lower the margin. The mascot baited the Sales Manager into lowering the price. And soon, the magician bought the luxury car.

  4. My Friend!
    By: Megan
    Once there were two friends that went to each others house. When I got there they had a huge hutch and a magic set, also they had lots of luxurious things. After I finished at her house I wanted to stay longer so I went to her gymnastics with her. Like were they straddle the beam. They even had a mascot. It was wearing a leotard. After her friend was done with gymnasticsshe started baiting me with her friends! They also prodded me to clog the toilet with toilet paper. I didn’t do it. On the way home I had margins of time to catch dinner but I wanted to get home as fast as I could! I am never going there again.

  5. The Best Mascot in the World!
    By Jessica
    Once there was a boy name Jimmy. Jimmy was the team mascot. The only thing he didn’t like was the team mascot was a magic fairy. The older boys baited him when he was in his outfit. At the end of the game he would get out of his outfit and drive to his home without a margin of time. This time he decided to drive his motorcycle to the gym. He straddled on his motorcycle and drove as fast as he could. His parents felt it was a luxury. But he prodded them to buy it. He hid a picture of his motorcycle in her hutch. As usual, his team won the game. Why? Because Jimmy was the best mascot ever!

  6. In The basement
    By Kassie Williams
    In the basement there was a crayon rainbow. The rainbow wore a raisin bracelet the rainbow some how escaped. She explained to the mayor at the railroad why she escaped. Then she saw chocolate on the pavement after she was done talking to the mayor. The painter maybe obeyed and complained a amazing awake mistake parade that contains a payment. The crayon rainbow remains and almost decays from the sky.

  8. Weird Magic
    By Davis
    Once upon a time there was a magic prod that ate luxury cars. Now the magic prod lived in a hutch with a bunny. He gives fish bait to the bunny for it to eat. One day he had to straddle Jimmy the mascot for the Foresters, who spends a margin of his time eating berries. Then to overcome his fear he used magic to poof Jimmy away.

  9. The Haunted Auction
    By: Olivia
    Once upon a time there was an auction. An author showed up at the auction hoping there were going to be some books there and there were no books there. The author thought to himself ,“There is something weird going on here and something needs to be fixed about these people,” he said.
    The author thought it was awkward there and it was. The person at the front of the table was a…….GHOST! the author screamed and ran out in time before he got captured.
    The author had a bad dream that night and it turns out that that story in his head was just a dream.

  10. The Haunted Auction
    By Paige
    Every August in some awkward place….there is an auction held by awful creatures. There’s the zombie lawyer, the laundry basket monster, the gawking sausage and many more monsters. At 8:00 pm they all come in their flawless saucers and start the auction.
    They brought out many awesome items, but the faucet was the best. The monsters liked it the most because there was a CAUTION sign on it. When you touched a button on the CAUTION sign a dragon came out! They all laughed at that but they liked it. They kept bidding and bidding until the zombie lawyer came out with $500! He won the faucet but everyone had fun and that’s what counts. The End

  11. The Billybobjoe Story
    by Jaden



    One day, there was a boy who was sleeping. His name was Billybobjoe. That morning, his mom woke him up. She yelled, "Wake up! We are going to The Great Escape."

    "Yes!"
    "Here is ten dollars."
    "I am going to buy a chocolate bar!"
    "You better not complain."
    "Ok." Two hours later... "We are here!"
    "Yippy," Billybobjoe said. "This is amazing. Awwwww..."
    "Whats wrong?"
    "They don't have chocolate bars."
    "We are at The Great Escape. Be glad we are here."
    "No!"
    "Then, come on. We are leaving," said his mom. Two hours later... "We are home, finally," said Billybobjoe "But next time I need to obey my Mom!"

  12. The Cymbal Smacking Mascot
    By Julia
    I was trying to prod the unicorn I was straddling. The unicorn is the mascot for the luxurious team. The luxurious team always had a margin of money. They used magic to bait the animals in hutches. When the team plays football, the field is only a yard long. Also the unicorn puts ornaments everywhere and crashes cymbals together. I guess that is the team’s cue to huddle up and murmur. The mascot found a little stick. She whittled it.

  13. Captain Broken Cotton Mitten of Food!!
    You have been chosen for a special operation. Your mission is to obtain and learn the penguin dragon bacon recipe. Its location is in a cabin on Heaven Mountain. The password is curtain eleven. The cabin is hidden and owned by your cousin Stolen Apron. You’ll need to bargain with him. Give him a napkin with a ribbon fountain or a gallon of cheese whiz. Maybe play the violin. 5 days later… The secret ingredient is…

  14. The Haunted Saucer.
    By Erika
    One day in August although it’s almost Autumn a lawyer walked along the streets. Already, caution signs are out. Everyone was inside because of the awful haunted saucer. Also, the laundry machines made out of sausages were going awkward. It was always like this on a night like tonight. That’s when the haunted saucer comes in. It picks up people and only one person has come out alive. The person came and told us what he went through. You first go in and your put on an old ripped up chair, ghosts start coming out to haunt you. You see mummies and you get strapped into your seat but I was lucky enough to have a broken one so I jumped. I didn’t know it until I opened my eyes but I was out before I left I heard a voice say, “you will be haunted forever”. The saucer crashed that day. Someone went in to check it out, they came out with happiness.

    The end.

  20. The Mayor Who Made Chocolate

    By Cameron

    Today there was a mayor that made a mistake on the chocolate instead of flour he put flowers in the chocolate mix. The mayor that made the mistake explained what he did wrong. “Maybe it said to put two cups of flour, so I put 2 cups of flowers in the chocolate mix. If I obey the recipe and use flour and raisins, maybe the painter wouldn’t complain.

  22. The Magic Mascot
    By Joe
    Once upon a time there was a magic mascot that had a luxury car. That car was so magic, when you went in the interior, it was as big as a yard. But it was only that big just to hold his magic prod that baited sports teams throughout America to hire him, but he wanted to be on the straddling margins. But one day his magic prod had so much magic, he did!

  23. THE HAUNTED SAUSAGE

    One day out in the dark, dark mountains of 1873, a haunted sausage named Chuck was doing his laundry. All of a sudden, a flying saucer that looked like a giant Frisbee crashed into the laundry room.



    August already? “Oh yeah. August is flying-saucer-crash month!” said Chuck. “All right. I guess I will go on with my laundry,” Chuck said.

    His laundry machine was broken because of the flying saucer. But he still tried getting it to work. He got so mad that it didn’t work, he slammed his head on the washer and country music started coming on and the washer started working!



    Chuck's head used to be flawless, but it was awful because he had a big bump on his head from slamming it. Chuck called his lawyer over and said, "I'm gonna sue that washer for this bump!" The lawyer replied, “You, Chuck, are a very awkward man."


    So there it was... a washer and a sausage in court. The sausage was mad. He slammed the washer, and the washer said, “Caution! if you hit me one more time I will blow up!” Chuck hit it one more time, and the washer... blew up.



    Everybody in the court room laughed until they heard Chuck screech, "From now on, this washer and I will haunt you -- all of you -- during your sleep, and during your laundry!" the haunted sausage and his washing machine lifted up and disappeared.

  24. The Magic Mascot
    by Emma
    The magic mascot thought the word margin meant sitting in a straddle on a luxury prod. People thought he was so dumb they kept him in a hutch. The only thing they would feed him was bait. Then the magic mascot ran away, and was never seen again.

  27. The Yeti Who Loved Bacon
    by:Maddie

    One day in a snowy cabin up on a snowy mountain called Snowpeak mountain there lived a yeti, a very stubborn yeti who yet refused to eat anything but bacon.
    In the morning he went out to breakfast at the yeti inn. Then he went back home to eat his 25 pieces of bacon. When he opened his cupboard there were only eleven pieces of bacon left! He had a bacon thief on his hands now!!! The thief had stolen all of his bacon!” NO!” Said the yeti, I’m in heaven when I eat that bacon! So the next day he went up to a fountain and wished for a gallon of bacon but all he got was a broken apron! No! Said the yeti, which was made out of my favorite cotton! The next day he went on a mission to find the thief. He had hidden a ribbon and a whole set of curtains. And he hid a napkin and a toy penguin to catch the thief! It was all a bargain so he had chosen some pretty good stuff. Suddenly he heard a violin sound! It was his cousin, Captain dragon! He roped him up and got his bacon back too! PAYBACK!! He yelled to dragon as he left the snowy field and went back to his snowy cabin.

    THE END
