Stormy Night

We’ve been working hard to develop our use of vocabulary to make our writing interesting and engaging. After last week’s storm we decided to write a descriptive paragraph.

The storm started quickly. I could see the sunshine had gone and the black, dark weather was coming. The rain was spitting down, the wind was ripping through the air.
I can hear the rain coming down like a hungry beast, the thunder roaring violently. The wind screams, the pitter pattering of the rain and the drumbeats bang on the roof.

The drumbeats of rain on the rooftops. The wind continues its rampage even the strongest of trees are destroyed. Leaves flying around in chaos. A jagged bolt of lightning strikes fear into electricity poles. The storm rages on…
