WALT to learning to use a hook.

I am going to use

• use juicy verbs
• different sentence starters
• simile

I found it hard to describe at first so I had to restart.

I found it easy to use a simile. Next time I would fill in my star instead of a simile I would use personification.

Reflection

What did I find tricky?

Describing so I did it again.

What could I do differently next time?

Change the challenge myself. I can use similes now.

 

The balmy sun cooked my back gradually. Gripping on the post enveloped with damp, jade-coloured moss stained my small hands. I squelched my feet on the grey, saturated mat.

The lifeguard motioned for me to go on. I wrung my togs and climbed in the 120angle cobalt coloured slide. As I stepped in, the slide groaned when I pivoted. The sapphire water reflected the sun and it quivered. 3, I thought. 2, 1… 

Heaving at the metal pole, my arms aching, I launched. Time slowed down. Sped up. 

Zoom! Down, down, down and down, like an out-of-control rocket. I was having second thoughts, and overthinking my actions,  but couldn’t anymore because-KABLOOEY! A charge of water blurred my eyes and went up to my nose. I choked and spluttered. Whew!
