100 Word Challenge - 6F

Mamkumba's 100 Word Challenge this week had to incorporate: 'but as the leaves rustled'. Have a look at it below:


Trees were swaying side by side in the storm; but as the leaves rustled, people knew that it was a bad sign to hear leaves actually crackling… BANG! There was a thunderous clatter hurtling down, as a vortex was developing in the dark, leaden sky. A few minutes later, onlookers realised it was a space ship! However, on closer inspection, it looked like it was a little dented and needed fixing up…  The crowd that had gathered volunteered to help fix it as a show of good faith. They thought they had done a good deed, but when the door opened, and they found out who the driver of this unearthly object was, they were shocked…

100 Word Challenge - 6F

This week 6F have uploaded Jason's 100 Word Challenege. This week's challenge was to finish a short story based on a video clip about the evil Lord Nulth. Jason had to create an interesting and exciting ending in 100 words.

As he opened the sack of sorrow, a ghastly talking creature jumped out! The dreaded Shrangutan; it was over for Lord Nulth. Shouting and crying, the beast was loose, despite usually being in his cage! It was the malevolent Lord Nulth who turned him into this abomination. Part shark, part orangutan, with teeth as sharp as skewers.

 “We meet again… It’s so nice to see you!” Lord Nulth screeched sarcastically.  

“Stop being so arrogant!” All of a sudden, the Shrangutan had leapt into mid-air and stuck his stone claws into Lord Nulth.

“Is it over?” one of the minions, standing to one side, thought aloud. Suddenly, Lord Nulth disappeared with a cloud of smoke. BOOM… It was. For now…

Another 100 word challenge

Our 100 word challenge prompt this week was "...the custard tasted like..." Here is Harry and Gershon's writing (5R). We hope you enjoy their vivid description!

Everyone was unanimous. The custard tasted like roasted snails. It looked like rotting carrots, black and deep orange. The bowl containing it was sizeable and the gooey mixture settling in it was bubbling like boiled potatoes. As it slowly landed on my tongue, it felt scorching. I saw sheep's eyes and lambs' livers floating in it...

100-word Challenge

Year 5 have been trying their hand at the "100-word challenge" - a piece of writing, under 100 words long, resulting from a given prompt. Our prompt was "...slowly, the sky got darker..." Here are some of the pieces of writing Year 5 came up with. Let us know what you like and what you think we could do to improve our writing!

The bats flew overhead
As I lay in my bed
Slowly, the sky grew darker.

The babies cried
As their mothers came
To see if they were in pain.
Slowly, the sky grew darker.

The foxes approached their prey
Which was hiding in the hay,
Slowly, the sky grew darker.

The police chased after a crazy criminal
Who was eating a piece of succulent simnel
Cake
Slowly, the sky grew darker.

All the shops were closed,
Full of food,
Full of clothes,
Full of stock,
Full of rats,
Full of rodents,
Full of cats.
Slowly, the sky grew darker.

Harry and Jannah, 5R

Slowly the sky got darker. The frightening bats awoke; the  witches were preparing their Halloween potion.

Suddenly, the aliens landed their colossal ship. The lime green aliens strolled out. BOOM! One of the witches threw the potion; everybody was under the Halloween spirit.

At 6:00pm everybody put their Halloween costumes on and started celebrating. Zombies came out of drains; devils came out of the forest.  Fortunately, the devils and zombies were occupied in the forest, planning their scare plan.

Three hours later, the zombies and devils came out to threaten people. Everyone heard the screams, children’s screams: “AGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!”

Slowly, the sky got darker. A man died in a car crash. It was as dark as Batman’s black cape. From that day on he was known as the ghost of Gotham’s mansion. His beloved night was HALLOWEEN.  

He took people’s souls away; he did that every year from this night for eternity.

When he went to haunt them, he picked up books and threw them at walls. He was yearning for the apocalypse. SMASH!!! He threw tables and chairs out the windows and hit car windows.

He went back to his mansion and thought of another plan…
