Passage on Bravery:
The crowd clapped as I walked onto the stage. My heart pounded against my chest. I felt like fainting. My memories of my dance lessons with Anna, my dance instructor, came flooding through my mind. I saw Mom cheering me on. I told myself," Just this once, just this once. Dance for the sake of Mom and Anna." I took a deep breath and a teeny, weeny step forward. I calmed myself down before I started dancing. I was determined to win the competition. I could not fail Mom and Anna. I must win this competition. I slowed down and faced the crowd. There was silence in the crowd. I thought that they disliked my dance, but they stood up and clapped so hard that I thought that my earbuds would burst. All I could do was smile and bow. I was glad that I had conquered my fear of performing in front of a crowd. 


Ending:
 I could not believed that I had won! It was the best day of my life! Since then, I have agreed to every invitation on stage. I felt so proud of myself.

Being Brave 
Introduction:
     One dark cold evening, Brenda was sitting on the old bench outside her house, wrapped in a thin blanket, sipping a cup of hot chocolate. She was depressed  that her classmates accused her of being mean and spreading rumours about others. She sat there, as figures of her classmates gossiping behind her back flashed across her mind. She thought to herself, " Why didn't my best friend, Jenna , stand up for me?" Tears began to roll down her pink cheeks, as she gulped down her cup of hot chocolate.
Series of events:
     - She found out that the person who had started the rumours was the horrible,mean Jenna
    -She could not believe that she fell for Jenna's acts of kindness to win her trust.      -She didn't want to tattle on Jenna so she decided to keep the mean rumours to herself.
     -Soon the rumours got much worse and Brenda fell into severe depression, so much so that she did not even want attend school but she had no choice.
      -She cried a river every night, thinking about the sniggering faces in school. No one wanted to accompany her. 
     -She remembered how her parents and teachers always told her to stand up for herself as they knew she was very timid and always went along with what others say.
     -She did not want to tell on Jenna, but needed to stand up for herself. She mustered up all her courage, clenched her teeth together and went into the principal's room.
     -The principal  
     - The principal talked to Brenda and was willing to help her.
     -The principal spoke to Jenna and grounded her for a week of cleaning the girl's toilet.
     -Brenda forgave Jenna after she had apologised.
     -Jenna learnt her lesson.

           Brenda looked at the computer screen and read the email for the fifth time. She could not believe her eyes. The new email was

Characters: Faith, Dance Instructor, Mother

  Faith was standing backstage with her dancing instructor. She was putting on a fake smile on her face, but in the inside, she was very scared. Her hands were cold and clammy, and she was shivering. Her dance instructor was going through the dance with her one last time. She was going to perform a ballet dance in the 2018 talent show.
  "Ladies and gentlemen, let us put our hands together and welcome Faith, the first performer of the talent show!" A thunderous applause broke out. 
  Why had I agreed to join this talent show? Faith thought fearfully. Should I back out? However, the thought of her dance instructor's smile and encouragement caused her to muster up all the courage she had.
  With a deep breath, Faith walked out on stage gracefully. She clenched her fists and managed to force a small and faint smile on her face. Her heart was pounding against her chest. All the eyes were cast upon her and there  were murmurs of excitement. With another deep breath, Faith started dancing with elegance when the music started. As soon as she finished dancing, another thunderous applause broke out. She had done exceedingly well! From backstage, she could hear her dance instructor cheering and clapping wildly. She was bursting with joy and pride.
  From then on, Faith would take up any challenges bravely and not be fearful.

Introduction:
Whenever I see the medal displayed on my bookshelf, I will think of the day my school held a dance competition...

Conflict:
I was standing back stage, waiting to be called on stage. I do not know how I got myself into this. Looking at the crowd made my legs tremble like jelly. I rejected every single offer to go up on stage since the incident that I forgot every single line of the script.

Climax:

Passage on Bravery:
The crowd clapped as I walked onto the stage. My heart pounded against my chest. I felt like fainting. My memories of my dance lessons with Anna, my dance instructor, came flooding through my mind. I saw Mom cheering me on. I told myself," Just this once, just this once. Dance for the sake of Mom and Anna." I took a deep breath and a teeny, weeny step forward. I calmed myself down before I started dancing. I was determined to win the competition. I could not fail Mom and Anna. I must win this competition. I slowed down and faced the crowd. There was silence in the crowd. I thought that they disliked my dance, but they stood up and clapped so hard that I thought that my earbuds would burst. All I could do was smile and bow. I was glad that I had conquered my fear of performing in front of a crowd.

  Faith was standing backstage with her dancing instructor. She was putting on a fake smile on her face, but in the inside, she was very scared. Her hands were cold and clammy, and she was shivering. Her dance instructor was going through the dance with her one last time. She was going to perform a ballet dance in the 2018 talent show.
  "Ladies and gentlemen, let us put our hands together and welcome Faith, the first performer of the talent show!" A thunderous applause broke out. 
  Why had I agreed to join this talent show? Faith thought fearfully. Should I back out? However, the thought of her dance instructor's smile and encouragement caused her to mustered up all the courage she had.
  With a deep breath, Faith walked out on stage gracefully. She clenched her fists and managed to force a small and faint smile on her face. Her heart was pounding against her chest. All the eyes were cast upon her and there  were murmurs of excitement. With another deep breath, Faith started dancing with elegance when the music started. As soon as she finished dancing, another thunderous applause broke out. She had done exceedingly well! From backstage, she could hear her dance instructor cheering and clapping wildly. She was bursting with joy and pride.

The science fair would start in 10 minutes. Feeling the suspense, I plastered a small and forced smile on my face. Oh, why did i even agree to my parents when they recommended for me to enter the science fair? Suddenly, an image of me getting nasty feedback from the judges and spectators filled my mind 
      "Lilly, when are you going to start setting up your contraption?" 
       Hearing my mother's voice which was filled with confusion, I was jolted out of my reverie.

  With a deep breath, Faith walked out on stage gracefully. She clenched her fists and managed to force a small and faint smile on her face. Her heart was pounding against her chest. All the eyes were cast upon her and there  were murmurs of excitement. With another deep breath, Faith started dancing with elegance when the music started.

Whenever I see the medal displayed on my bookshelf, I will think of the day my school held a dance competition...

Conflict:
I was standing back stage, waiting to be called on stage. I do not know how I got myself into this. Looking at the crowd made my legs tremble like jelly. I rejected every single offer to go up on stage since the incident that I forgot every single line of the script. Since then, I've been teased for being a fearful person.Iwasstandingbackstage,waitingtobecalledonstage.IdonotknowhowIgotmyselfintothis.Lookingatthecrowdmademylegstremblelikejelly.IrejectedeverysingleoffertogouponstagesincetheincidentthatIforgoteverysinglelineofthescript.Sincethen,I

Climax:

Passage on Bravery:
The crowd clapped as I walked onto the stage. My heart pounded against my chest. I felt like fainting. My memories of my dance lessons with Anna, my dance instructor, came flooding through my mind. I saw Mom cheering me on. I told myself," Just this once, just this once. Dance for the sake of Mom and Anna." I took a deep breath and a teeny, weeny step forward. I calmed myself down before I started dancing. I was determined to win the competition. I could not fail Mom and Anna. I must win this competition. I slowed down and faced the crowd. There was silence in the crowd. I thought that they disliked my dance, but they stood up and clapped so hard that I thought that my earbuds would burst. All I could do was smile and bow. I was glad that I had conquered my fear of performing in front of a crowd.

Lala Land Primary School Dance Competition
Dancing Room
Dressing Room
Back stage

Introduction:
Whenever I see the medal displayed on my bookshelf, I will think of the day my school held a dance competition...

Conflict:
I was standing back stage, waiting to be called on stage. I do not know how I got myself into this. Looking at the crowd made my legs tremble like jelly. I rejected every single offer to go up on stage since the incident that I forgot every single line of the script. Since then, I've been teased for being a fearful person.

Climax:
"Let us put our hands together to welcome Emily Tan on stage!" boomed the announcer into the mic. I walked onto the stage, my heart pounding.

Passage on Bravery:
The crowd clapped as I walked onto the stage. My heart pounded against my chest. I felt like fainting. My memories of my dance lessons with Anna, my dance instructor, came flooding through my mind. I saw Mom cheering me on. I told myself," Just this once, just this once. Dance for the sake of Mom and Anna." I took a deep breath and a teeny, weeny step forward. I calmed myself down before I started dancing. I was determined to win the competition. I could not fail Mom and Anna. I must win this competition. I slowed down and faced the crowd. There was silence in the crowd. I thought that they disliked my dance, but they stood up and clapped so hard that I thought that my earbuds would burst. All I could do was smile and bow. I was glad that I had conquered my fear of performing in front of a crowd.

Ending:
I could not believed that I had won! It was the best day of my life! Since then, I have agreed to every invitation on stage. I felt so proud of myself.
