Write a story that begins with the sentence "I knew it wasn't going to be my day when the wind blew away my homework."

I knew it wasn't going to be my day when the wind blew away my homework. I had missed the bus, and I didn't get to eat breakfast. It was very rainy and I had to walk to school by myself. When I got to school I had already missed the spelling test and my teacher had written on the board, "Homework due today No excuses!" I was ready to cry. I knew I couldn't get an extra day to redo my homework sheet because it wouldn't be fair. So as the school day went on I had an idea, try to sneak and do it during class. That would be the awnser to my problem. So I started to do it and then I saw through my glasses that my teacher was stading over me and the look she had on her face was that she was very disapointed.

I knew it wasn't going to be my day when the wind blew away my homework." I would do tricks until they gave me the banana. If they won't I would just take the banana from the children. If they start to cry I would eat some and make them laugh. So, they would forget about the banana.

If I was a monkey and i spoted some children eating a banana what i would do to get them to give me the banana is make alot of noise to get their attention. Then once i got their attention i would do some tricks then walk to then hold my hand out and see if they would give me the banana. If they didn't i would keep doing tricks and if that did not work i would wait till they got close then i would snatch the banana away from them.Then run and eat it.

If I were a monkey, I'd probably scream and yell at the people until they came over to me. Then i would take the banana out of their hands and eat it. If that doesn't workd I'd try to get out of my cage and then take it.

If I were a monkey and I wanted to get a banana from children I would ask my fellow monkeys to try to keep their attention so I could get eough for everyone.If the other monkey didn't help I would dance around and take the banana
and pretend that taking the banana
was part of the act or dance.
