This week we are going to work again on ‘Quick Writes.’  This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10 mins to write as much as possible using this writing prompt.

 Here are some of my quick writes

Tomato Pulp

Can you imagine the tomatoes flying everywhere?

When you go home you will be covered in red juice and seeds.

The tomatoes smell rotten like a

te koriri(corny turd) or diarrhea .

When you walk into the tomato fight you are immediately covered in tomatoes.

You would be so exhausted after they day of bullfighting.

It would be so cold with all the tomatoes on you it would be like being in the freezer.

The Stormy Day

Ka taea e koe te whakaaro i nga ngaru ka pakaru i runga i te taiepa waipuke

(Can you imagine the waves crashing on the flood wall).

Or the rain smashing on the ground.  

The wind blowing everything out of it's path.

The thunder and lightning cracking and smashing.

Or the ahi (fire) from the lightning burning all the trees and houses to dust.

Imagine being in that ngaru (storm) .

You would be swept away by the wind and struck by the lighting.

You would be a goner.

Looks like agent orange.

As I go in the bright cloud of orange I start to suffocate.

It was as heavy as one ton.

When I saw it I was blinded by all the colours.

It was as loud as gunfire from a terrorist.

It was like the smell of a volcano just about to erupt.

The Amazing Spooderman

Can you imagine all the people screaming and shouting.

All the Spooderman fans come to the parade.

You would be so squished with all the people there.

The crowd goes wild with all the confetti and balloons.

It would be so loud with everyone there and all the cars and buses.

They will clean up any food that is dropped on the floor.  It is also nice to give an animal a home to live in.
	Secondly, it is also good to have pets because you can get food out of them like a chicken can lay eggs or some cows to get milk and with that milk you can make butter and cheese. some dogs can also hunt for food to.
