for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Ultimatum which we have to use along with sixty-one others!
Jonny flung his school bag on the floor.
“What’s up?” his sister asked.
“We had to write a story using this stupid word”. ‘Ultimatum’ was scribbled on a scrunched-up scrap of paper.
“So?”
“I wrote about a robot”.
“That’s an automaton” she giggled!
“So, what’s it mean then? I’ve gotta write it again or get detention”
“That’s an ultimatum” chuckled his sister!
.
Well done, Keith!
Thanks so much Dale!
“That’s clever!” chuckled this reader.
Thanks for joining in!
good one
Thank you!
Very funny. You made me giggle.
I’m pleased! Thanks so much.
Haha. Poor Jonny! Great story, Keith!
Indeed! Thanks so much Shweta.
Hi Keith – oh yes … understanding ‘words’ … I’d quite like an ultimatum for the rain at the moment! Cheers Hilary
Me too – I’m staying put today!
Hilarious!
Thanks Reena.
Dear Keith,
This made me giggle. Very clever!
Shalom,
Rochelle
…as I hoped it might! Thanks Rochelle.
This was delightful and realistic … 😉 Loved the exchange! (and I always get a chuckle out of homophones or close-homomphones and how children often mistake them …. 🙂
Me too! Delighted you enjoyed it Na’ama.
🙂 I did! 🙂
Good one Keith! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks Jen.
You’r welcome Keith
Heeheehee! There’s his story right there. Of course, if he gets caught plagiarizing from you, i’ll bet that’s detention worthy as well.
A very good point! I’ll keep an eye on him!
Well we learn from our mistakes. Great story
Indeed we do. Thanks Sadje
