The Mysteries of Harris Burdick

Your task now is to choose two images to write your stories. Think and observe the images carefully. They must be different as you need one for Spanish and one for English. You will be expected to write good fantasy stories in both languages including all the relevant fantasy elements, some mystery in order to hook the reader's attention as well as the caption. All the best!
Please, keep your choice to yourself. Don't share it with your friends! Thank you! We hope with Mariana that you enjoy this wrapping up of the fantasy genre as much as we do! If you want to see it bigger, please click

I think this is a great way to wrap up the fantasy genre because:
1)I think it's very creative.
2)I enjoy writing stories (including fantasy ones).
3)the photos are very good an can create many ideas in ones head.
So I think it will be a great finish to this project

Miss Ale
I think I will like this finishing for the fantasy genre because those pictures give me a lot of ideas, they are very good.

Hi Miss Ale,
I really have to think about which one i am going to choose because i want my story to be great. They are all good pictures to make a story of but i just don't know which one to pick. I liked a lot the one of the girl sleeping with the book that came plant out of it. I thought that it could be about a book that when you read it everything you read would come to life in your sleep.
I like this project we are going to do so we can make another story. And we can make one in Spanish and a different one in English.

See you tomorow!!!

Hello Miss Ale:

I like allot all of the images but I think how will be the story if Harris Burdick dissapeared maybe he did it on pourpouse so he can be famous because he thought that he was not going to be famous so he left to leave mystery. Or maybe they robbed him the stories and went to another country and change something about it, like Shakira that they robbed her a book full of songs and they published only one and Shakira qsked.

Thomas E. said...

I don´t know how it would be this progect. I don´t know what pictures choose. I think The one of the fifth chair is one that I am gonna choose, because it is funny.

Teo V said...

Miss Ale I don't like so much this project because, I am the worst person writing fantasy stories or normal stories so I didn't enjoy so much the project, but I will try to make my best!!

Agus T said...

Hi Miss Ale!!
I think this project it's a very good idea because in my case it's easier to be creative and I have a kind of idea of what I am going to do!
The only thing that is not so good is that I have the pressure of doing it good because there's going to be a mark for it!
See you!!

Ana G said...

Hi Miss Ale
I think that the project is great and also the idea of shearing it with spanish.
I alredy made the desicion for spanish but I still need to make the decision on english.

pilar. m said...

I liked a lot the fantasy genre because it seems as if it is very real the story but then you read the fantasy element and you say like: This can´t be possible?
because as it seems all real and then you say "OH, NO! this is very strange."
And I also like the idea doing us to write the stories of Harris Burdick because we can have an idea of what our story can be by reading and by looking the images.

Florencia DL said...

Clara G said...

Hi Miss Ale
I think that writing a fantasy story with the pictures that you showed us is going to be great because I enjoy writing fantasy stories and because I like the idea of using on photo for each language and writing the story with something that has to do with the photo.
See you on Monday!

Hi Miss Ale,
I already looked at all the images very carefully and will keep looking at them until I have to write the story. I know the 2 images that I want but I will not tell them. I think this idea of choosing two images, one for language and the other one for P.D.L is very creative and the images are very well drawn.
See you on Monday!!!!

Ariana G. said...

Hi Miss Ale,

Bianca F said...

Hi Miss Ale
I think that writing these stories (for Language and for Practicas de Lenguaje) are going to be very fun. Because these idea of choosing a picture and writing a story with it is very imaginative!

GianfrancoE said...

I think that I will love to write the fantasy story of "The Mysteries of Harris Burdick" aut I will dislike it if we would write in google docs, becouse I hate writing stories in a computer.

Pedro.A said...

I already thought about what image`s I was going to choose and its going to be very nice to write more Fantasy Stories.

Clara V said...

Hello Miss Ale
Ii like the idea of writing stories of photos that many people wrote all around the world although it is nice to here lots of vertions of one same picture I want to know the original storie, what a great mistery is the one about Harris Burdic. I already choose the imagenes, I hope that you and Mariana like the stories that I am going to write. When I saw the imagenes I related them with lots of other movies and stories that I watch or read.
See you tomorrow Clara V

justo L said...

Miss Ale,
I think it is a great idea to use these images to write fantasy stories taking into account that these images were meant to be used for a story or stories but for some unknown reason they weren´t used. When you and Mariana first told us the story of these pictures, these options came to my mind:
The next day Harris Burdick forgot that he had to bring the story to the editor and continued with his normal life,he died suddenly or was killed by some kind of thief, the author direcly invented the whole thing to publish something, etc.
Whatever the reason, it is now our mission to make something out of these pictures and I like the idea.

agustin e said...

Miss Ale,
I think this project will be fun because we already know much about the genre and the genre is fun.
So we can write a very intresting story

Belen D said...

Hi Miss Ale:

I think that its a grate idea to do this projector Lenguage and Language because the story can say all what we had learned up to here. I love writing stories because I can show all my imagination.

gonzalo c said...

hi mis ale
I think some fotos realy inspire you in writing a fantasy story although it is difficult to come up with a good idea.
Also the fotos are very good. I think is a good idea to make this fantasy story because the fotos are very good.

SilvestreB said...

Hi Miss Ale
I like this project of writting our own fantasy story with images. I know perfectly wich one I will choose for spanish and for english. I like to write from these photos. For me the mystery of Harris Burdick its very strange, a person that writes fantasy stories happened something fantastic to him.

Tomas S said...

Miss Ale I like the idea you had because we have to be very creative and thats what I enjoy. I already decided which photo I will choose but It wasent very easy to choose because I had to think what story is the one for me.

Nacho B said...

Miss Ale
Thank you for buting this photos in the blog to think about to photos.

Jeronimo A said...

hi miss.Ale
I think this project will be the best of the year because 1.We are going to write a fantasy story with pictures
2.All the pictures are very good and mysterious
3. We can choose anyone we like for language and P.De Lenguaje
4.Each picture has a tittle in english and in spanish for you to have some idea of how it will be the story.
The pictures that I chose are very good and I chosen them because in my opinion they are the best, but really all the pictures are very good. Most of the pictures are very mysteriousand the other pictures are very fantasy, I chose the mystery ones because I love mysteri stories.

Sofi K said...

Hello Miss Ale:

I have to admit that at first I wasn't REALLY excited about this project, I thought it was going to be boring. But now I REALLY REALLY have to say that I love doing this!! I am having so much fun! I didn't thought I would but I am!! In english and in spanish, both times!! Today when we started our story something came to my head ( an idea ) and then another and another!! It is EXCELLENT!!

See you tomorrow!!

Francisco I said...

Miss Ale
I think the project to write the mistery of Harris Burdicks will be funny but now that i think i think that is not so difficult but i think that i will finish very late because im not so good writing.

Marcos L said...

Miss Ale
I think is a great idea of ending this project with a storie with including that genre, we always do it, but this time is in both languages so I think it will be a good work of everyone!

Ernestina P. said...

Miss Ale,
It´s fantastic the idea of placing the pictures on the blog for us to watch them from our computers.

See you tomorrow!

Roxie said...

Miss Ale,
I think that my story for the Mysteries of Harris Burdick was one of my favorite stories that I had ever written before. I think that I have improved my writing this year a lot and I write much better in english. It is harder in spanish but I am still improving at both.
See you tomorrow!
