Summer Learning Journey Day 4 Activity 1 Week Three


One of the most famous children’s stories to ever come out of New Zealand, Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy, was written by a kiwi woman named Lynley Dodd. The book was originally published in 1983. It is now sold in dozens of countries around the world. It features a small dog named Hairy.
On your blog, use the following sentence starter from the original book to finish the story.

To earn full points, your story should have, at least, 8-10 sentences.

“Out of the gate and off for a walk went Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy…  and and Hercules Morse as big as a horse, with Hairy Maclary from Donald's Dairy. Bottomley Potts covered in spots, Hercules Morse as big as a horse and Hairy Maclary from Donald's Dairy. Muffin McLay like a bundle of hay, Bottomley Potts covered in spots, Hercules Morse as big as a horse and Hairy Maclary from Donald's Dairy. Bitzer Maloney all skinny and bony, Muffin McLay like a bundle of hay, Bottomley Potts covered in spots, Hercules Morse as big as a horse and Hairy Maclary from Donald's Dairy. Schnitzel von Krumm with a very low tum, Bitzer Maloney all skinny and bony, Muffin McLay like a bundle of hay, Bottomley Potts covered in spots, Hercules Morse as big as a horse and Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. With tails in the air they trotted on down past the shops and the park to the far end of town. They sniffed at the smells and they snooped at each door, when suddenly, out of the shadows they saw.... SCARFACE CLAW the toughest Tom in town. "EEEEEOWWWFFTZ!" said Scarface Claw. Off with a yowl a wail and a howl, a scatter of paws and a clatter of claws, went Schnitzel von Krumm with a very low turn, Bitzer Maloney all skinny and bony, Muffin McLay like a bundle of hay, Bottomley Potts covered in spots, Hercules Morse as big as a horse and Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy, straight back home to bed.

    Cadence here from the Summer Learning Journey team.

    In this activity it asks you to create your own story about Hairy Maclary. It’s really important you use your own ideas and words in this task to make sure we are setting a good example for other students.

    If you could write a story about Hairy Maclary using your ideas, let me know and I can be sure to give you full points.

    Please don’t hesitate to ask if you need any help with this activity. :)

    Kind regards,

    Cadence :)

  2. Hi Mele
    I think you read the task wrong. It said you had to create your own story about Hairy Maclary. Hopefully you will change this, keep up the amazing work.

  3. Hi Mele
    Great job on completing this activity, I like how you added in a picture of the book too. I have a question though, do you think that Scarface Claw likes to scare Hairy Maclary and his friends?
