Homework

As I trotted though the school gates, something seemed to be gathering everyone attention. I dashed towards my friends. "What's going on?" I yelled. "Some hole in the the playground apparently." Said James while laughing I didn't know weiter to belive him. I couldn't see properly because all of my class were infront of me. I don't see what all the screaming was about, its just a hole anyway. Or is it...

A winter's day at the park

As I was walking to the park with my family, my feet felt like they were about to drop off. The only reason we were going to the park was because every day of our holiday we had been stuck in and today my mum finally decided to get us out of the house. All the way there, I could feel the ice cold wind rushed around me like a tornado.

When we reached the park, the trees had long icicles hanging off them, just like claws ready to reach out and grab you. My brother and I raced to the play area. I slipped. I laughed and got back up before running to catch him.

When we were on the park we played on everything; it was the most fun I’d had in ages. Me and my sister ran straight to the slippy silver slide and went down it at least ten times or more. From the top of the slide I could see the grass was not grass, it was like a blanket of frost with three clawed footprints leading to a fallen nest.

Eventually, Lucy-Leigh moaned that she was starving to death so mum gave in and decided to start walking back. It was so cold it was like I had just been sat in a freezer for an hour. My lips, fingertips and nose had begun to turn as blue as the shimmering lake.

When we arrived at the front door we were greeted by the dog licking us and the warmth of the radiator reaching our freezing skin.

Book by the Beach - Belgium

We are really lucky and have been invited to write a chapter in the interactive story of the Beach family, from Blackpool, as they journey across Europe.

Ten primary schools across Blackpool have each been invited to contribute a chapter of the story and each chapter will be written from the point of view of one or two of the family, around a suggested scenario and based in a designated country.

The country we have been given is...Belgium!

Through our lesson today, I would like you to let us know what you find out by commenting on this post.
