Jewels!
It was Friday night when Katie was playing scrabble with her Granny, while watching a documentry about international jewel thiefs. "I'm hungry," moaned Katie. "There's a biscuit tin in the kitchen," replied Granny. Katie skipped happily into the kitchen. She spotted the biscuit tin on the top shelf. Quickly, she pulled a chair over to reach the tin. Her mind was racing about what biscuit she would find but when she lifted the lid she got a big shock. There were diamonds, rubies and emeralds - every jewel you could think of. Just then there was a news flash. A granny had been seen stealing jewels!

The not so great magician
Yesterday,me and my family went to see a magician.Unlike other magicians, this magician was a girl. For her first act, she peformed a card trick. I was amazed! After a few more astonishing tricks, she came to her final act. She was doing a disappearing act! Me and my brother were really excited. It was time for the act. Her assistant stepped into the box and the lid was closed. She said the magic words, but when she lifted the lid her assistant was still there! I was very disappointed!

I like how you have described the passing of time 'yesterday' 'after a few more tricks'. I think this would sound even better if it was a cliff hanger, how else do you think you could end your short story?

It was a dark hazy night when a girl was travelling to her grans. She was so excited to see her present that she fell of her bike. She quickly got back on her bike and reched her grans house. She rushed into the house and opened the present , it was a doll. Then her gran asked if she would go in the loft to get something. When she was in the loft she saw a rusty ancient box in the corner. She decided to open it but when she lifted the lid she was sucked in and never saw again...

Rose went into the kitchen, and asked her mother why no one ever goes into the attic. Her mother told her “the reason it’s that there is something up there long forgotten”
Rose was curious about the attic to listen, so she went to the attic to listen. So she went to the attic stairs. She walked up the stairs, opens the door and closed it behind her as she gets inside. The first thing that caught her eye was a box. She thought it would contain some photos, but when she opened the lid there was an Ouija board.

The two girls rapidly ran down stairs,got there rifles and set of into the woods.The ground was dry and clean.Ellie spotted a crow flying in the blue placid sky.Suddenly Ellie got her hazardous rifle out.BANG! the crow fell to the ground. They ran over but there was nothing to be seen. What had taken it? A while after holly heard rustling in the bushes.Then a pebble dropped onto Ellie's head."look up!can you see that?" Exclaimed Holly...
