Walt: Describe

I walked through a forest to a log cabin.


I watched Jake edge his way through a dark & gloomy forest. Our feet crunched on the pebble-stone path. Long weeds grew through the pebbles. The dirt was as slippery as ice, but it was the color of clay. On both sides of the path there were  baby-dragon skulls stabbed onto spikes! We kept walking until we came to a stone-brick clearing that was struck by moonlight. It was mossy with splatters of dried blood. I had a sick feeling in my stomach. Jake continued walking. The sharp & leaf-less trees curved around a spooky log cabin. Soon he bumped his head into the door of the cabin. It was made of old birch wood with an oak door. There was a dark window on each side of the cabin. There was a sign on the door saying “Danger, keep out!!” I asked Jake if we had to go inside, Jake did not reply. The oak door slowly opened with a clunk. As soon as we shifted into the cabin, the door shut closed & locked. We were trapped inside!!

EOTC Recount

It was the Thursday of EOTC week with room 9&7.We are at school. I was finishing up my morning tea when I heard my group were doing rock climbing next. I was afraid of heights, but suddenly that changed!!


There I was, staring at the humongous rockwall. My dad helped me put on my harness, I had a shiver down my spine. I climbed the first quarter of the rockwall & looked down at my dad, then I went higher. I saw myself getting higher & higher after every reach. This is just the beginning of the rockwall session!!

I finally got to the top of the rockwall when I suddenly had a strike of fear! I couldn’t reach for any more knobs on the rock wall. But my brain set a goal for me to get to the top & to hit the button. So I tried my best to get to the top & fortunately I did. I came zooming down with relief. I also heard my dad saying “Good job Gianni!”. I felt proud of myself! As soon as I got to the bottom, some other kids from the Keas group had a turn. Sherry told me that she wanted to have a race. I accepted the challenge! Sherry went on the easy wall & I went on the hard wall. When I was nearly to the top I looked down. I saw that Sherry was struggling, my dad told me to help her out; So I showed Sherry where to put her hands/feet. Once she was near the top I was going to finish the race, but I let Sherry push the buzzer. I pushed the buzzer after her & when I came racing down she shouted “I win!!”




It was lunchtime & I felt really proud of myself for helping Sherry during the rock climbing session. And that was a brilliant experience!!
