We have 5 words for you this week & I have no idea how you will get them all into one piece of writing! Don’t forget – they must all be included but they can be in any order. They are:
VIOLIN ELEPHANT PURPLE HAPPY PAINTED FOCUS ON DIFFERENT SENTENCE LENGTHS AND USE OF COMMAS. The prompt is:
… “No,” he said, “I like marmite.”… This is the weekend when all across the world, we remember those people who fought in the many wars since the First World War. On November 11th at 11 0’clock in 1918 the armistice was signed, ending the Great War. Sadly, it was not the war to end all wars as people thought so on Remembrance Day we think about all those who have been caught up in conflict since that first armistice.
To remember this, the prompt this week is RED You can interpret it in any way you like. I look forward to your posts. The prompt is:
… the orange one spoke first… Now your writing doesn’t have to be about anything supernatural or anything to do with 31st October, but if you have a spooky story in your head then….! Well done to Emma who was recognised for her writing on the 100WC website. The 'showcase' page on the website is an elevated platform for sharing writing and some of them even get created into 'special toons' too by professional artist Terry Culkin (which Emma's got selected for!).
This week we had a go in class at the challenge (you're welcome to submit another one from home if you wish!)... This week, you have the chance to practice writing speech! The prompt is: …”but where did it go?” she shouted...
Description - Regimental music echoed around the dusty shop (it was heavier than I expected) drab black and white photographs looked down from the walls upon a battered, worn trumpet of a decrepit gramophone. Action - Scrraaatch… scraping back and forth the metal razor moved, handled deftly in the grip of an expert. Dialogue - “Blast, the gramophone has broken, what will I do?” asked the Barber before receiving a reassuring pat from one of his best customers. “I’ll fix that for you.” he said.
The prompt is: it was heavier than I expected … Things to think about:
Try to think about sentence openers this week.
Think DAD, where your sentence starts with a descriptive word, then an action word and then have some dialogue... Can you see it in my example below: Lonely and isolated, the boy could only stare to the sky. Thinking hard about his life, a tear ran down his face. “Oi! Flat-Head! Guess who is it poking you in the chest!” cruel children would say as he walked around oblivious to anything that was happening below his head. Depressing thoughts filled his mind; he knew that his family loved him but more than anything, he just wanted a single friend. Struck by a thought, he pondered over to the place he felt most comfortable – the forest, where he could hear the birds singing and the wind blowing. “Hi friend…” said a warm voice. We have a puzzle for you this week! A bit of a mystery. The prompt is:
… when it just wouldn’t take off … Things to consider:
