Chapture 19 writeing prompt

I think the Underword would be really scary because it is just dark and has dead people down there it would be really scary if I visited it.

If I went to the Underword I think I would be sick because there are just dead people all around me and I think I would be killing them but they are all ready dead so I could do that to them.


I think the Uderword does exist and I would be afraid of the Uderworld a lot .

The Lighting Thief

1. I have never been treated unfairly by a teacher ( or parents or other adults).











2. I know a lot of stuff about ADHD and Dyslexia because I have ADHD and Dyslexia and people that have that cant control their self and there some times don't listen to their teachers and other adults . The Dyslexia is were some people see words backwards when they read and when they look at word they see them backwards. The only person that I know has a disability is my brother he has ADHD like me. I think that a person with a learning disability should receive more time to complete test because they need help then people that don't have a learning disability don't really need help that much. Then I don't think that should have less homework then the people that don't have a learning disability because they need more help so that how they get better and I think they should have the same amount of homework as the people that don't have a learning disability.











3. I think the Greek imagined many different gods rather then just one it is because there could be other kinds of gods like a god of water or a god of air. I think it would be confusing with a lot of gods but just one should be better then a lot.





4. I think that if I found out that I had a real Mom or Dad that I never knew about I would be sad that they did not tell me I real Mom or Dad but then I would get happy but if they ask me to come and live with them I would say NO because I barely even know my real parents .





5. I really don't believe in things like magic it is just so fake but I really do believe in ghost .



6. I had went to summer camp we did cunning and did a zip line it was fun and we play on a big mountain and did a lot more stuff.


7.I had a big ball that could do a lot of magical stuff like it could make a earthquake ,snow storm and other magical stuff.
