The Stomach
of Doom
It seemed like a normal day for the kids,
but they did not know what was coming.
BOOM BOOM BOOM.
“What is that?” asked Katrina.
“I do not know,”
said Bailey.
“I thought
earthquakes can’t happen here?” asked Lily.
“They can’t!”
said Trevor.
“I thought they could,” said Blake.
“UGGGHHHH!” growled
Makayla.
“I am going to cry,” said Lily.
“Be brave,”
said Katrina.
“Where is
the bathroom?” asked Lily.
“If I were
you, I would not leave,” said Bailey.
“But I have
to go,” said Lily.
“Then go
risk your life,” said Blake.
“We have to
hide,” said Katrina.
“Agreed,”
said Makayla.
“Let’s go to
the basement,” said Bailey.
“No, they
know we will always go down there if there is something wrong,” said Makayla.
“True,” said
Lily.
BOOM,BOOM,
BOOM!
“It is
coming closer,” said Blake.
“Oh thank
goodness the parents are here,” said Trevor.
“Wait, where
are they going?” asked Bailey.
“They must’ve
heard the noise too,” said Makayla.
“Well then,
I am not baking my dad brownies tonight,” said Lily.
“Wait, we
are forgetting someone,” said Katrina.
“Mrs.
Clare,” said Blake.
“OHHHHHH,”
said the whole class.
“Is it
possible that the noise is her STOMACH?” asked Makayla.
“OHHHHH,”
said the whole class again.
“I feel
really dumb that we did not know that was her,” said Bailey.
“Well, let’s
get her some breakfast,” said Katrina.
“Now I feel
great,” said Ms. Clare.
“So now we
can do MATH,” said Ms. Clare.
“Noooooo,”
said the whole class.
“A lesson
for the day: always feed your teacher,” said Makayla.
Also, who knew, but earthquakes do happen in Minnesota. My student brought me a link and said we're along a fault line:
