Descriptive Writing

Room 16 have been learning to write descriptions. This week we drew a picture of an alien. Then we gave our aliens a name and wrote a description. When we had all finished everybody read out their description and the class had to guess which picture it matched too.

Here is Marley's description of his alien Never Soft Eyeball.

Never Soft Eyeball

Never Soft Eyeball has 17 eyeballs. He has

three heads made out of eyeballs. He has eyeballs growing out of the eyeball heads. He also has proper eyes on his hands so wherever he puts them he can see.

If you touch his eyeballs he will disappear and will come back when you have gone. The eyeballs that are growing on him can turn into purple hair that goes backwards. He has a bucket as a foot and a shovel as the other foot.

He feels like a slimy, greasy, mouldy old alien. He smells like a bunch of horrible old cheese. He sounds like he’s choking except he isn’t.

Never Soft Eyeball has five long and short legs. He has a huge mouth on his tummy instead of it on his head.

I like my alien because there is no other species like him.

 The Beach

Shiver, shiver! In the weekend I went to the beach. It was really cold.  Me and Grandmas friend were there. Swosh Swosh I dived into the sea . It was a nice and beautiful day. Then  we went home to get my dads togs because we locked the door. We saw  dads car come down. I run as fast as I could. I bet Dad’s car. Dad put his togs on. Then we were off. I hoped into the sea again. Cannonball!

Splash! “That was really cool’’ I yelled. Next Dad threw me and he made me do a bellyflop. “Ouch that hurt’’ I said. After that we all headed for home. Lastly we had some cookies and a milo. Me and grandma made a milkshake together. It was a really fun and exciting day.

Nanny’s house

Bye Mum bye Dad! In the weekend Me and Mia went to our Nanny’s house. First  Mum dropped Nanny, me and Mia to the dairy so we could get some food.Then we walked home and ate our lunch. We got chips and Mia and Nanny got pies. After that  we read some magazines and talked. Lastly Mum picked us up and we went home.

I felt annoyed because Mum didn’t give us a bag of books and activities.

The Shelly Beach

On the weekend I went to the beach.I went with my aunty and cousins. When we got there I was diving into the beach with my cousin Seranade. We pretended that if we touched water we will turn into a mermaid. It was warm and cold.I played with my cousins in the beach. Their names are Seranade,Astin,Salist and Eden. After two or three hours my little brother and my other little cousins came.We had to move spots on the beach because the tide was coming in.Then after we moved we got back into the water. We played for a while then it was time to go home. We packed up. My nan came to pick us up. She took the boys and my Aunty Jaymie took the girls. When we got home we played on our bikes and watched tv.
