Wonderful Writing!

Today, my day started and ended with excellent writing!  First thing this morning, Mrs Jessop came to see me with Andrew who had taken the time at home to create his own legend.  It was an extremely impressive piece of writing with wonderful vocabulary choices.

Then, this afternoon, Miss Williams sent Hattie to see me with a sensational piece of descriptive writing:

I was meandering, one very sunny morning, in the words when the ground just ... rumbled and up grew a gigantican (gargantuan and gigantic) tree.  There it stood.  Roots flooding the surface around me.  

"What?"

I stood bewildered, almost in a trance.  Then, out of the door, that was embedded inside the tree, emerged a small, old man.  He didn't seem at all surprised to see me but I was drawn to his appearance.

In the soft breeze his long beard resembled a lot of brown, furry caterpillars.  He was wrinkly yet his hair was not greying.  Long, pencil-like, fingers rummaged his pockets and he pulled out a stick, which looked like a wand, and he tapped a plant pot.  'He's lost 'is marbles,' I thought to myself.

"Good morning Laura," the man smiled.  How did he know my name?  I didn't have anything to say apart from that, so I just curved one of my eyebrows.  I'm good at that.


Keep up the super work!
