My writing students have begun story writing this week. I asked them write a simple stroryline from an illustration of a wizard, an imp and a dragon.
The Story of Jack the Wizard
by Purple Dreamer
A long time ago, there was this wizard named jack. He was resting in his castle when a dragon went in his window. The dragon was with an imp. The dragon attacked jack. He ran across the room and grabbed his wand. He tried to make a spell but the dragon kept blowing fire at him which caused his spell to create spiders. The imp was keeping an eye on the wizard and made sure that all of his spell would not work.
He distracted the dragon and the imp by ordering the spiders to tickle them. While the spiders tickled the dragon and the imp he started to cast a spell. At last he casted the spell on the imp. The imp fell down the window and died. Jack casted a spell on the dragon the dragon got struck by the lightning. Jack lifted the dragon out to the window with his wand. The dragon dell down and died.
Jack cleaned up the place. He thanked the spiders and took them out of the room. After he was done cleaning, he went to his bathroom and treated his wounds. He changed in his pajamas and went to his bed. As he was about to sleep he sighed and thought to himsel, " I can’t believe I killed an imp and a dragon all by myself". After that day the news was heard everywhere. He was now famous and well known as Jack the wizard.
Jack, Jill and Elmer
by Oreo
Once there was a wizard named Elmer. He was so creepy. He lived with a dragon and an imp. Their names were Jack and Jill. They lived in a creepy cave where there were insects. But the wizard hated the insects so he used his wand to rid of them. It didn’t work. So, he got mad and the dragon suddenly burned it. That’s the only wand Elmer ever had. He cried and was sad all day long.
When it was lunchtime, Jack and Jill didn’t even cook yet because they were comforting Elmer. Jack used its fire to light the logs so they can cook. They didn’t know that there were spiders around the cooking pot. When they were eating Elmer kept on crying while the two of them were planning to give him a new wand. They thought that they must earn money. When Elmer sipped the soup, he realized that there were spiders in it. He cried even more. Jack and Jill still comforted him.
After lunch, Elmer decided to stay in a quiet room while Jack and Jill planned the whole thing. After all, Elmer’s birthday is the day after tomorrow. They planned to give it as a gift. So to earn money, they sold their stuff. When they earned thousands already, they bought the nicest wand and it was wrapped in the cutest box they’ve ever seen.
When the special day came they waited for Elmer to wake up. Then they gave the gift as a surprise. Elmer used it and it worked! They lived happily ever after.
Harry, the Wizard
by Cockroach Kid
After many years of showing off his wizardry, Harry decided to retire from his job to rest. One night, he had a vision of an imp telling him to defeat the mighty dragon or else the land of Enchanted Kingdom will be destroyed.
The next day, he took a flight to China in order to defeat the dragon. He spent weeks of showing his wizardry to the Chinese and made himself worthy of fighting the mighty dragon. While heading towards the top of the Great Wall of China, he encountered the imp from the vision. He asked where the dragon is and it replied that he must go to the other side of the mountain. When he turned back, the imp disappeared.
While Harry was walking with in the walls, the imp warned the dragon that there was a crazy wizard trying to destroy China. The imp told the dragon that the wizard is coming so the dragon practiced breathing fire on targets.
The battle has started. Harry, who is very determined to save Enchanted Kingdom, tried all he could with his wand but he ended up making a mess. He started to cry and the dragon had mercy on him. They both knew that they were not trying to destroy anything. They looked at the imp and started to use their magic on it. the imp finally admitted that they were just tricked and so they burned the imp until it turned to ashes.
From that time, they have stopped the war and vowed to help each other when in danger. They all lived happily ever after.
