M y First W eak of H unting
One day on a hot afternoon I was
sitting on my front porch all alone
hav ing nothing to do when my father
came out o f the house. He was
wearing his hunting clothes, and at
that exact moment I knew where he
was going, so 1 asked him if 1 could
go with him and he said no, until I
said I ’ll wash the dishes for a week
and he said OK. So he got his two
rifles and ammunition and we were
on our way to the big woods.
On our way out there on the other
side of the road I saw a deer feeding
its young on a berry bush. Then in a
nearby tree 1 saw a squirrel eating a
peanut, the same body dropped
while passing by. I knew we were
going to have lots o f fun and do a lot
of things when we got out there. I
saw all kinds of animals, such as a
bear, a deer, a snake, and a bald
and golden eagle, that’s when 1 got
excited and took o ff my camera and
took pictures of all the animals and
birds.
We arrived there at 6.00 and took
out all the hunting equipment. When
my father got out the rifle I asked
him what are we going to hunt first.
And he said, “ we are going to hunt
small things first thing go after the
big ones.” I was so excited because
this was my first time going hunting
and being out in the big woods. We
got the rifles and bullets and were on
our way into the hunting grounds.
We got there, we shot a squirrel, a
mongoose, and a bagger. It was get
ting dark and we started our way
back to camp. When we got back my
father said we did so good hunt
ing, that we were going to stay out
there for a week I was very happy
and jumped for joy. It was 10:00
when we went to bed and it was very
quiet. I could hear the frogs croak
and I could listen to the crickets
make a lot of noise. It was midnight
when I went to sleep but father went
to sleep a long time ago. It was morn
ing and a beautiful day. I knew we
were going to do lots of hunting
today, so I got up put on my clothes,
went outside, washed my face and
was ready to go hunting. But my
father was still in bed. so 1 got
everything ready. 1 fixed breakfast,
loaded up the guns. Then, when I
saw that pa was still asleep I went for
a little walk through the woods.

. . . Through Individualized Learning Program
When I got back I saw pa eating
breakfast so I went up there to join
him. After eating we started on our
way. We were going after the big
ones and we had to betvery quiet.
The first thing we shot was a male
deer, we shot that on the other side
of the woods. Then we came upon a
mountain lion, I raised my rifle took
aim and fired, I got it right in the
body. Then after that we went after
the biggest one a big black grizzly
bear. 1 was very frightened. I had
never gone after a bear and shot it.
We had been walking for about two
hours and we hadn't found any kind
of bear yet, so we got tired and took a
little rest. We rested for about ten
minutes and then we fell asleep. We
were asleep for about five minutes
when we heard a loud roar. It got
closer and closer, when all of a sud
den, the biggest and the largest black
grizzly bear came roaring and
charging out o f the bushes and
came at us. M y fath er reached
for his gun but he slipped and fell
and the bear came at him. 1 was so
scared I froze stiff then I saw my gun
lying on a small hill. I ran for it and
grabbed it. I lifted my gun took aim
and fired, I closed my eyes when 1
shot. I opened my eyes and there I
saw my father standing next to the
bear bending down to see if it was
dead and it was. I asked my father if
the bear was dead and he said, “ yes
son he is dead.” We dragged the bear
all the way back to camp. When we
got through it was very dark and I
had to start a fire. When the fire was
red hot pa brought out some hot
dogs and some punch. We ate that
then sat down around the fire talking
about the hunt and how I'd killed the
bear. We sat there for about ten
minutes and then went to bed.
It was Sunday morning and the
day we stopped hunting and went
fishing. We ate breakfast and after
that pa read the Bible to me. W e read
the Bible for half an hour and then
we had prayer and then after that we
went fishing for bass and trout. I
caught two trout and a bass and my
father caught four bass and three
trout. Father caught more because he
knew how to catch them with the
right bait. After fishing we took a
break and ate lunch. After lunch we
started on our way back to camp.
When we got back there we went into
the tent and took a nap because it
was a long walk back. ~
