Dear Miss West,

My goal is to get 500 posts on my blog before the end of the year. Thanks for helping me improve my math this year. I’m not very confident in writing and would like some help to improve my writing before the year ends. This year has been crazy and it is one I don’t think I'll forget.

Thanks for teaching me 

Yours sincerely, Eva

The Disappearance

Me and my family were in hawaii and decided to go back to the hotel after a long day at the beach. We were all playing with the GoPro which we got especially for the trip, the GoPro was extremely fun to play with in the water. We packed everything up and were off well, we thought we packed everything.

When we got to the hotel we all layed down in our rooms. Eden had the GoPro she gave it to Dad. The next day when I woke up and all I heard was “where’s the GoPro?” “I don’t know, but i’m looking for it” “where was it last?” “we gave it to you”. Everybody was looking for the GoPro which we thought was in the room “ who had it last” asked dad “hmmm, oh i remember I brought it in from the car then I gave it to you” Eden said “cool we have a mystery to solve”.


We all tried to remember what we did with the GoPro “maybe we left it at the beach ?” someone said. Then Eden said “ dad put it in a plastic bag, then right after that Esrah came in and took out the rubbish, maybe he accidentally put it in with the rubbish”. “Ooh yeah Esrah did come for the rubbish”.


Dad said worriedly “So the $35980 Gopro is in the rubbish!” “ guess it is” “that’s not good at all” and at that very moment Immy walked in the room with something behind her back, everyone looked at once. Behind Immy was Mum “ I found Immy outside by herself and she was locked out?”she said “Eden said she was still asleep” I repealed “but it wasn’t just Immy I found outside, I also found this” she pulled out the GoPro from her bag. “ mum where did you find it?” “Immy was playing with it outside” “that’s why when we heard banging it was just her” “yeah”.

“But why wound you take it Immy” we all asked “you guys never let me play with it at the beach, so when I finished dinner I got it from Mum and Dad's room” she said “oooh that’s why you finished dinner so early”. “Wait but how did you find her outside?” Eden asked “I came back from my shopping and the first thing I saw when the elevator doors open was Immy spinning around with the GoPro''. “ i’m just glad our money is not wasted” dad said “ i’m starving. All this mystery solving is making me hungry” Eden said “ well then let’s go eat” dad said “YAY!”.
