giants stomping
flashing of feet
sparking like a firework

In Literacy this term we are going to be focusing on a variety of genres like poetry and persuasive writing. We are currently enjoying reading 'Matilda' by Roald Dahl.
HAUNTED HOUSE WRITING
Here is a taster of some of the writing have been doing. The children were asked to imagine a scary, haunted house that a real estate agent was trying to sell to them. As they approached the house, a storm was brewing outside.
This is an example of one of the children's writing from that point on:
I entered the house and stepped into a cold mist,
it felt like the same storm as outside.
There was a pencil hovering above the couch, I jumped back out the door
in fright!
I saw a ghost in the window, I waited till the
ghost had moved off and then stepped back through the door. The pencil had
dropped back onto the couch by then, so I went through to explore the length of
the house.
In the kitchen, the frying pan was hovering above
the stove, so I went out of there quickly.
I heard growling from the bathroom.
When I finally got to the bedroom, I saw a shadow on the wall so I went
out to the lounge and a zombie was just jumping out the window.
That night the roof was creaking and I thought I
could hear a skeleton grumbling. By morning I was very pale and I couldn’t wait
to leave. By the time I had packed up
all my stuff, all the monsters had gone back to sleep and I was free to run
home.
