A little while ago Room 4 did some slow writing where we were given something we had to put in our sentence (e.g simile, speech marks, a sentence starting with a verb or noun e.c.t) and created a sentence around that brief. The objective was to use a good word selection to enhance our writing.
I really enjoyed writing the whole thing, I know it's not very specific but it was just really fun to have the time to actually think over your sentence and really choose your words carefully.
I found it challenging to imagine my taniwha, because I didn't have the clearest of pictures in my mind as to what my taniwha actually looked like.
My digital learning object shows that I am a stepping up blogger.
Next time I would try to change up my writing style slightly because otherwise it sounds very similar to most other things I do.
Here is my work
Tail cracking like a whip.
Swiftly snaking up the rough, sandpaper like tree bark.
Twig snapping underfoot, revealing the taniwhas placing.
Suddenly I spring into the clearing yelling I’ve got you now tree scum!”
Tongue lashing at the threatening hunter.
No hunter, wise or bold, is a match for the almighty, muscular and deadly tree serpent.
