Splinters What really happened

Our prediction was that a bird had a splinter and we were totally wrong.
The real story was that a bird fell from down the sky. A person caught it and looked after it
and it had a broken leg and the boy put a wooden splint. They called the bird splinter.
The man that was painting here house wanted the bird for $5 but the boy said no so the painter offered for $10 and the boy said yes. One day the boy saw splinter and called the painter and the painter said he could have him.

splinters

A magpie was hurt and had his left leg damaged, while 2 boys were waking along the forest to home. They tried to help the magpie and let his leg rest. They took him home to their living room and they named him splinter. One day the painter wanted to buy the magpie and one of the brothers sold the magpie to the painter for $10. The family was sad because he was gone and he wasn't in his little cage. one day again splinters came back but dad decided to call the painter to return him. the were sad until splinters had to go. But Dad had a idea and but a not for sale sigh on splinters when Mr Quin offerd 20 dollers.

splinters

Hi our names are Zen and Sean. 
Our prediction is that a bird tells us how he/she gets his/hers splinter. Then he/she asks everyone to help fix his/hers splinter.  A man sees a bird needing help with her/his leg. The man straightens it for the bird.

How does the bird get it's splinter?
How did the man find the bird?


Yours sincerely
Zen and Sean
Hi this is Jordan and Jack.

We are to tell you what might happen in the book splinters By Jack Gablinscy.
Well the book is about a Bird that Was flying in the air and when it was landing it hit a splinter on the ground, and that might explain why the wooden stick and ropes are tied on the birds left leg that was seen on the picture of the book. when the bird got the splinter in his leg and a vetrian was just walking along when he saw the bird lying on the ground with the splinter in its left leg. So the vetrian took the bird back to his work station and helped get the splinter out of the birds leg. When the splinter was taken out the birds leg it couldn't move it. It was hurt. so the vet person decided to put a wooden stick by its leg and straped 2 strings around it.

#How did the bird get the splinter on its leg?
#Why did the person help the bird?

Gloria, Stella and Khya

I think the story is about a bird that gets a splinter.
It might tell how it feels like when you actually get one,and that it might hurt. Also the story might say that it takes a while to get rid of it. It might also tell that it is a big job.

I think the story is about a bird with a splinter from a deck.
It might say how the splinter got in his or her foot and it was very sore.
The story  might tell us about the splinter getting out of body in the end of the story.

I think that this story is about a magpie that got a splinter in his foot by stepping on a piece of wood that was sticking out.
