DREAMS

Chapter 4 is about sleep.  When we sleep, we dream.  There are many kinds of dreams.  There are the good ones where we wish we didn't wake up.  There are those that are confusing or don't make any sense at all.  Then there are the horrifying ones.....those terrible nightmares.  Many times we don't remember our dreams.  Then there are dreams we never forget.  For this blog, share a dream you had.

My dream:

Although I had this dream when I was a little girl, I will never forget it.  It was night time and I was in my house with my grandpa and my mom.  Only the kitchen light was on. I went to my bedroom, and there was this hole in the floor.  When I looked, all I could see was the color red and a bunch of demons with pitchforks trying to pull me in.  I ran out of the bedroom and as I ran toward the kitchen, the big TV at the end of the hall became like a gigantic magnet and pulled me toward it.  I started to scream for help because I was afraid that the TV would swallow me.  I thought I was going to die!  I screamed but nobody came.  Thankfully, I woke up and realized it was only a nightmare!.

TASK:  Now write a paragraph describing the dream.  Add as many details as you can.
