Setting Description - Tunnel Forest

A bright light shone through my eyes. A flock of green trees are twisted like a circle. Purple,pastel,greenish lights break the color of the forest. As the sun went down the color of the sky changed. It almost looked like a perfect end to a family hike in the bush. I needed to find somewhere to sleep so I crumbled my way through the leaves in to a echoing dark tunnel. Water was dripping and so the echoing carried on.


This week my group and I created a setting description using a photo that was given by Our teacher. We then started to describe the setting. LI: to describe a setting.

Character description- Calvin & the chairs



Calvin’s eyes opened up with sudden awareness.  His head turned and his mind was blown, when he saw 2 chairs that weren’t there before. He stood there staring at the chairs with a confused look on his face. Right before his eyes, 10 chairs came flying towards his head.  They were, skinny chairs, cube chairs and big fat couches! When the chairs came flying and bumped Calvin, he was left with cuts and bruises.
