For the past couple of weeks, Te Ngahere has been doing writing. The purpose of this was to engage our audience as we learn to  use words to create powerful images and emotional responses for our audience. For our first piece of writing we had to write about a picture that shows a dragon and two boys. I think it was really cool to write about the picture because we were able to write a really descriptive piece of writing using our imagination. But next time I think I will be capable of using more descriptive words.

Here is my piece of writing:

As the sun starts to set, a young heroic cherub by the name of Benjamin and his best friend Kassey on the opposite side of him start to hear something rushing up the wall. With the fear on Kassey’s face, Benjamin slowly peeps over the side. To find a dragon creeping towards him with the face of a hungry looking street dog. BANG! He leaps back, trips, and lands on the back of his head. Kassey screaming his name “Ben, Ben. Are you okay”. Bens unconscious. The dragon leaps up onto the wall and gazes into Kassey’s eyes. With his Mighty roar he blows Kassey back to the point where he lands on his back. By the time the dragon finished roaring, Ben woke up, grabbed a pitch fork and points it to the dragon. With the fear in his eyes he realised the dragon looked hungry and frightened. So he grabbed a piece of meat, jammed it onto the pitch fork. Then held it out to the dragon, as he cooks it with his hot breath. Kassey then ran up to the ledge with the look of excitement on his face. Ben looks at the dragon while he’s eating, and calls him Elliott.
