WEEK TWO WRITING

We have been doing some awesome writing about different celebrations and events. Today we focused on fireworks. Here are a few of them, but feel free to come and have a look at some of our other great writing in class.

Fireworks by Hamish

5 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 7 o'clock, 8 o'clock, 9 o'clock BANG! "Wow!" A sparkling, spitting, dancing firework soared up like a posh fountain that had just been unblocked. BOOM! Another flaming boulder, flung out of a catapult, streamed up into the vast, black sky like shooting stars.

Fireworks by Perry

The smell of candyfloss excites me.  People everywhere are waiting as they stuff their faces with unhealthy food.  Suddenly a deep voice starts to count down from ten. "10.9.8.7.6.5.4.3.2.1" BANG! The fireworks are blossoming flowers. Five fireworks fill the night sky. The trees whistle in the light breeze. My heart sinks like the Titanic. I move to the car quickly as the event finishes. People rush to the exit. Bumper to bumper traffic all the way home.

Fireworks by Emily

BANG! POP! CRACK! Sparks explode rainbowing colours into the dark, navy, night sky. Bright streaks swirl quickly like a cheetah racing across a jungle. Screams echo loudly. The popcorn is a salty, smooth sea. Wind jogs slowly across the darkened field. The grass is like a shiny wet day. Sparkling star like shapes pop and fizz loudly like a bottle of soda being shaken up.

Fireworks by Adrianna

The grounds are filled with people like a hive trying to feed their queen. We put the soft blanket down so delicately that even a million year old vase on it would not get broken. The fireworks suddenly burst into bright colours. It sounds like a million jaffas just fell on the hard floor. The twinkling stars change colour every time a firework bursts. The fireworks shoot up like a snake going to catch its prey. The changes are sudden- they don't slide into it slowly - sudden and strong. The sounds we hear are "Oooooh! Wow! Boom! and they go on forever. Dogs are sniffing.

Fireworks by Noah

"Are you ready?" boomed the speaker. We screamed back and the timer started ticking away. "3! 2! !1" WHOOSH! BANG! The fireworks screamed. The fireworks were gleaming stars exploding in the night sky then fading into the black of the night. Dogs were whimpering and whining as they ran quickly into their houses. People gazed in awe as the fireworks sped up into the night sky as fast as a cheetah. The explode into a rainbow of colours and shapes.
