The story so far....
The first time I swore at my parents
I could hear my three cats purring happily. I was sitting on the floor in front of the fire in my lounge. The windows where black with night and I was dressing in my warmest PJ’s. My mum was working at her desk and my father was reading a book in an old padded chair with big thick arms.

Model the Sequence
Ask: What am I thinking about in my head right now?
Ask: What am I going to look at to make sure that I do a good job?
First my mother called out to me, “time to go to bed James.” But, I didn’t want to go to bed. I started to argue.
Next, my father told me to go to bed too. I was not tired so I started to shout at them. I could tell they were getting angry because their faces were turning red and there were some little veins starting to show on my dad's forehead.
After that I started to stomp down the hall like a herd of elephants. That's when I happened. The bad word slipped out of my mouth. I shouted it as loudly as I could. @#%#*(!!!!!!!!
Finally I ran to my room and hid under the covers. I was shaking. Then I heard footsteps coming down the hall towards my room…..
