The Flames
I was baking my cookies which is a tradition every month. Like always, I started tucking the children into bed so I can relax. I am so tired. I thought. Why don’t I take a nap… I suddenly woke up to a sound and smelled smoke. I ran to the cookies. THERE WAS A FIRE!!! I ran to get the kids up and we hurried to get the pets and important needs. We started heading out. “FIRE, FIRE!!! “ Soon, we were all rescued and the building turned to ashes and flames. Where will we live and how can we eat?
The New Firemen
By Riley McJunkin
I am Jean-Marc Cote. The year? 1899. Yesterday I got the paper and read about yet ANOTHER fire and our firemen being too slow to get there. So I sat down and drew a picture of what I hope will be firemen in the year 2000.
I sketched a large home with a lovely balcony, the home set on fire. Large deadly flames erupting from the home. The flames were beautiful, rich reds mixing together with shades of gold. How could something so beautiful be so deadly and destructive? A rich woman stood passing her beloved child to the caring fireman's arms as though she were passing her soul to her hero.The firemen had large, velvety, majestic, wings, pulling them up to the distressed woman. Ah, if only the world was carefree, knowing that people would be there for them...
Get off my property
I sat down and smiled at my most precious son, Margo. I was wondering if I would ever be found by the ruler of Macondo, Milgrim. The country I have always lived in and never will not live in. Then my precious margo started to cry like I was turning blue I tried to calm him but he didn’t budge, it started getting really hot, I smelled smoke that was not good, there was either a fire or just my imagination. The crying got worse, I didn’t know what to do but when I seemed to see a someone coming towards my house I knew that the ruler had come to arrest me.

This week we have a picture. It was drawn in 1899 by Jean-Marc Cote and is how he would imagine how fireman would work in the year 2000. Thank goodness he was not correct!
Look closely at the action.
Obviously, you can write about anything that the picture says to you but for those who might be stuck, you could write about:
- How things are different now
- What the woman is feeling
- How the fire started
- What sort of location is it set in
