The Big Catch

Last week, Room 23 watched a clip from the literacy shed that was about a boy who caught a small fish. The fish was taken away by a fox who, without the boy realising it, led him to a much bigger fish. We described the moment the boy saw the fish leap out of the water and what the fish looked like.
Please have a read of some the descriptive writing below!

The Splash

Ka-splash! Out of the water came an unbelieveable scaly super fish. I saw a huge slimy fish. The fish smelt like a rubbish dump. The fish dived and made a big splash into the water. The gigantic fish felt wet and gooey.

The Catch

Ka-splash! That is such a ginormous fish. It's so scaly, where did it come from? I know I haven't seen anything like that before but it doesn't smell that nice at all. Brrr...It's cold out here by the ocean. But it does look tasty mmm...but if I did eat it no-one would get dinner, but me.

The Big Catch

Ka-Splash! Out of the water came an unbelieveable super fish. The boy got gallons of water on him. The fish was so glorious. Did you see that ginormous fish? Next, the sound was so significant. Man you should of seen that, it was spectacular. The fish mesmorised the little boy. It was very spongy and ginormous. It was fish paradise and it looked like an ancient spirit. I'm going to eat you spongy fish, scrumptious!

My Fish

What the...what! That was the most ginormous fish in the world, I cannot believe my eyes, I am so lucky! It has to be at least 2 and a half meters long surely, I now feel very greedy. I saw about 50 or more scales on that thing. I have to catch that rotten fish. I just need to build a fishing rod, but where can I find a hook? That's about all I need. Wow there's one right in front of me. Ok I have built a rod. My shiny hook is in the ater. Now I wait 2 seconds later. Wow! I caught that massive super fish. I just need to reel it and...done. Oh this is a soggy fish. Now all I have to do is bring it to my village and that's my dinner for a week. This is the best day of my life!

The Big Catch

W..w...what was that? Was that a ginormous fish, I'm star struck! Have you ever seen a great big fish before? Well it just jumped out of the water! W...wow! In and out of the water came a outrageous super fish! Dangit he has gone! Am I in a dream?!? I feel like I am in fish paradise! Incredible, the most mesmorising fish (I think) just jumped out of the water! Have you ever been star struck before? Well I am feeling star struck right now! I think that big fish is an Angel! Plop! Oh no it's gone away. I have to catch it! Whooosh! Wow is that a fish, naa it probably isn't. It is a fish! It is so unbelieveable.
