LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

We have been learning to use present participles in our writing.
One hot sunny day, Little Red Riding Hood was dropping off some goodies for her grandmother.  
Skipping and jumping, she bumped into the big bad wolf looking so terrifying. 
"What are you up to?” said the the wolf. 
"Oh, I'm going to my Grandmother's," cried Riding Hood. "She lives in the nearest cottage.”
Skipping further down the lane, she reached the cottage. She knocked on the door. 
"Come in," yelled the wolf.
”Hello. I brought you some goodies."
"Yum, yum!" slurped the wolf. 
"What big teeth you have. What a pointy nose you have and what big ears you have. Wait! You're not my gran!" said Riding Hood. 'You're the wolf I met in the forest."
"No, my dear," she answered back.
"You're tricking me," she said in a loud voice. 
The wardrobe suddenly opened with her  grandmother in it. 
"How could you. You're a thief," and they had the wolf for dinner.
They lived happily ever after.

THE COLD NIGHT

We have been learning to use pictures in the mind words to describe what we saw.
We  were going up the Hakarimatas one cold night. It was as cold as a freezer. Brrr! We got to the first step. We were rising as it got colder. I wasn't pleased to be going out on such a  cold night.
There we stood looking at such a tall staircase. I thought, "How could I go up such a high staircase that would hurt my feet so much?" I could die but anyway we huffed and puffed our way along. I sighed in disgust. Wow! I made it up the staircase. 
Next, we were just on the smooth road and saw a tower. We went up it. Next we went to the car.
We zoomed down the stairs then we hit the bottom. We all yelled yippee!

winter

It was on a cold frozen morning. I saw a white blanket on the field. It was making me frozen like a statue. I was standing by the window.

Autumn poem

The  leaves are brown, red and yellow.

Its coming to winter.

Its getting cold.

Leaves are falling.

I'm getting colder than before

I'm about to explode with coldness.

I nearly popped with leaves I could not hold them in my hands.

Crunch! Crunchy leaves, autumn leaves.

Well done, Olivia. You have noticed that, in Autumn, it gets colder. Add adverbs to your verbs, eg Leaves are falling softly, or Leaves are falling gently, or Leaves are quietly falling. Instead of writing The leaves are brown, yellow and red, you could write, The leaves splash brightly, brown, yellow and red, or The brown, yellow and red leaves are sitting silently on the branches, or The brown, yellow and red leaves are sad to be leaving the tree. Use action words in each idea.
