Student's Legends

Salutations!

I hope you are all well. Yesterday we sent home extra (and optional
material on legends for you guys to clear your doubts. Today I have the 
honor of posting some of your amazing legends here on the blog. I am 
very proud of your hard work and dedication. 

Title: The Pink Lion 
Author: Ricardo
Group: 4-2

In a house there was a lion, a pink lion. One day, he found out 
that his grandma was sick. He needed to protect his pink lion grandma. 
As he was cooking dinner, a pigeon passed and said: “Is that a Lion? 
A pink lion? The pigeon approached him. The lion began to cry. 
The pigeon asked him:  “Why are you crying?” 
The lion replied: “ Yesterday, my grandma passed away, I am so sad.” 
The pigeon felt very bad for the lion, so bad that he decided to stay with 
him forever. From that day on, people would talk 
about the friendship between the pigeon and the lion. 



Teacher’s note: The Lion and the Pigeon tells the story of 
how friendships can blossom in the most unlikely of places 
and even people.  Great Job, keep writing.

Title: The Legend of the  Pink Lion
Author: Isander
Group: 4-1

    He was born in China. As soon as he was born all the doctors that 
saw him told him the sad news. He had Coronavirus. He became
 the only lion in the world to have the virus. As he grew up, his skin 
turned pink due to his illness. All the other lions in school would make 
fun of him. They would bully him. One day, during one of his doctor’s 
appointments, he found out he was cured! The doctor was surprised 
to find out he did not have Coronavirus. When the Lion heard the news 
he was so happy. The kids in school stopped bullying him, too. Finally, 
he became the first lion to survive this virus. He was happy for the rest 
of his life.

Teacher’s note: The Legend of the Pink Lion tells the story of how 
no matter what the circumstances we need to have hope for a 
better tomorrow. Isander, you inspire us to continue working hard.   

Title: The King
Author: Nathan
Group: 4-2

  On a mountain, there was a lion that was different from the others. His name was Tobuk. 

He was pink, instead of yellow. One day, he scared the villagers from the town by killing a 
tiger. That's how Tobuk became the King of the Forest. 
 


Teacher’s note: The King, is a short tale that teaches us how great leaders sometimes
come to be. Throughout history, people would gain power through acts of violence.
Is this what we do in the Twenty first century? Great job connecting both classes, 
I am very proud! 

Title: Blue Hope
Author: Nathaniel
Group: 4-1
One day, in a valley full of lions a pink lion was born. The pink lion had magical powers, 

he could even talk to humans. One night, a black lion came to the valley to destroy everything.

The pink Lion used his magical powers to defeat the black lion. He almost lost the fight, when 

suddenly a grey lioness appeared. She helped defeat the evil ion. They won the final battle and

lived happily ever after with a blue baby lion of their own.




Teacher’s note: Blue hope is an inspirational tale. The fantasy behind the author's words is
amazing. It teaches us that good can sometimes win against evil. Excellent work!


Title: The Unusual Lion
Author: Emilee
Group: 4-2

There was a boy in a mountain and he saw a pink lion. 
The lion did not attack the boy. The boy touched the lion, he 
passed his hands through the lion's mane. Suddenly, he fell
inside of the lion mane and was transported into a new 
world. The boy and the lion became best friends


Teacher’s note: The Unusual Lion is a short tale of friendship. Remember the first time you
met your best friend? You are on the right road Emilee keep writing!

Title: The Panther and the Lion
Author:Alejandro
Group: 4-2

Once there was a lion, in the jungle, that wanted to
be the fastest lion. One day, he was practicing with a pink
panther. He could never beat the pink panther in a race.
While practicing and accident occurred and the lion and 
panther clashed into one another. The next day, the lion 
noticed he became pink! During the new competition the
lion realized he had super powers, one of them was to run 
fast. So he used his powers and won the trophy. 

 
Teacher’s note: The panther and the Lion is a great way to mix fiction and facts. 
I love your writing style Alejandro!

COMING SOON!

Las Aventuras de Netsukin - Parte I

Netsu y su viaje a Washington 

Netsu es un gato juguetón y curioso. Vivía en la isla de Puerto Rico y quería mucho a su ama, Maestra Sirelys. Desde que era un pequeño gatito, siempre soñó en convertirse en el presidente de los Estados Unidos. Pero él sabía, dentro de su corazón, que no lograría alcanzar su sueño. Cuando Maestra Sirelys se iba a la escuela a enseñar, los demás gatos del vecindario se burlaban de Netsu. Le decían cosas como:

“Los gatos somos cazadores, no presidentes”

“Nadie le va a hacer caso a un gatito sin estudios”

“Un gato jamás logrará entrar a la Casa Blanca”

Netsu pensó que nunca lograría convertirse en el primer gato presidente. Cuando le comentó a Maestra Sirelys sobre lo que los demás gatos decían, ella le aconsejo:

“¿A quién le importa todo eso? ¡Si quieres ser el presidente, estudia y ve por eso!”

         Netsu trabajo duro día y noche. Mientras estudiaba ignoraba todos los comentarios negativos de los gatos a su alrededor. Si él quería alcanzar su meta, debía enfocarse. Netsu nunca dejó de pensar en su objetivo. Los años pasaron y Netsu logró ir a la Universidad de Gatos. Se sintió muy contento de llegar tan lejos. Parecía ser que lograría alcanzar su sueño.

Un día, durante la clase de COMUNICACIONES-MEOW-101, los estudiantes gatunos veían un video por YouTube. Netsu, como todo gato curioso, se acercó y comenzó a ver el video. El video describía todos los deberes del presidente de una nación. Netsu se quedó impresionado. No podía creer que era tanto trabajo, esfuerzo y dedicación.

            Entonces Netsu comenzó a reevaluar su plan. ¿Verdaderamente quería ser el presidente de los Estados Unidos? Era mucho trabajo y siempre quiso comprobarle a los demás que era el gato más astuto del vecindario. De repente Netsukin tuvo una gran idea. Si no podía llegar a ser el primer gato presidente de los Estados Unidos, entonces lograría ser el primero gato dentro de la casa blanca. 

         Muchos años después, cuando Netsu logró graduarse de la universidad, completó su meta. Llegó a ser el primer gato ACTOR dentro de la Casa Blanca. Y Maestra Sirelys sintió mucho orgullo.
