A Fisherman's Long Day!

The Week B 4th grade class created a story from A to Z using the ocean as a setting, a fisherman as the character, and cleaning up pollution as the plot. They had to come up with sentences that began with the next letter in the alphabet. See how they did!!

A Fisherman’s Long Day

            A fisherman was looking for pollution to clean up in the 

ocean. But, he could not find any pollution to clean up. Cleaning 

up the environment was important to him. Directing his eye, he saw some pollution in the water. Eager to clean up the pollution, he steered towards it. Five minutes later he was at the pollution. Grabbing his net, he heads to the side of the ship. He tried to get the trash, but it started to sink. It sank down so far that he couldn't get to it. Just in time, he expanded his net and grabbed it up! Knowing that no one was out there, he started to worry. “Look how much is left!” he said. Many pieces of trash were still left in the ocean. 

         Now he knew he needed help to clean up all the pollution in that area. Other fisherman came when he radioed for help. “Pack up the trash, take it to the shore, and throw it in the trash”, said the fisherman. Quickly putting the trash in the trashcan, they saw more pollution. Right away he went for the pollution. Sprinting back to his ship, he was at the pollution in no time. “Time to finish picking up the pollution!” said the other fishermen. Using the nets, they cleaned up the pieces of trash. “Very good job!” he said to the other fishermen. “When you need help cleaning the ocean, you should call on us!” said one of the fishermen. X-ing out the area on his map, he returned to shore. “You look tired!” said a little girl on the shoreline. Zipping his bag, the fisherman headed home for a well-deserved rest.
