On Wednesday 22nd of October,my class 5AT and the other class 5AS were asked to make extraordinary model houses to burn like the Great Fire of London (what we are learning in topic). My incredible house took two exhausting hours to make(because I thought we weren't allowed to use sellotape so I used a glue stick instead)but nevertheless I was ambitious to burn my house down.I used cardboard to make my mind-blowing house.

The day finally came, when we had to burn our houses wonderful houses down.when I looked at the other houses,I realised that most of the houses were better than mine.Mrs Tigg, Mrs Stewart and Mrs Nandha put glue onto a piece of cardboard and permanently stuck our houses on it. To be honest I was actually a bit bored because I've done this before but I was wrong. Mr Odesho poured white spirit(which is highly flammable) on our houses.

Then Mrs Tigg and Mrs Stewart set fire to our astonishing houses. First of all the fire was a bit timid, but when Mrs Stewart lighted another match the fire was way bigger. The fire rapidly, swept through the brilliance of our houses. If people were inside those houses it would've been very perplexing to get out of it. The fire spread so quickly it finished in only 30 minutes!!!!. The last house standing was Veyhana's house which was a rather nicely decorated house, but unfortunetly it got burnt.The conflagration ceased and then died into embers and then the houses died into ashes.

I was extremely astonished of how fast the fire spread. i was happy despite my getting burnt to ashes because I wonted it to get burnt.

How would feel if it was your house was burnt down like that?
