Last week we focused on creating a spooky beginning to a story, linked to our paintings.\u00a0 We talked about how to draw the reader in and how to use different punctuation to add suspense and excitement.\u00a0 We then spent time reading each other’s work and editing what we had written, looking for capital letters and correct punctuation.\u00a0 We also had to check that it made sense.<\/p>\n

Lightning struck and in the flash of light, I saw a cloak swish past the window, but it was too late to turn back now. As I opened the door I heard an evil cackle, was it a witch? Or a ghost? My heart skipped a beat as I walked into the unknown.<\/em><\/p>\n

One night, I was walking through a dark, gloomy forest. I noticed a haunting house. It was old and dusty and the garden was covered in fungus and parasites! As I walked to the door I heard some spooky sounds. the noises continued. I tried to ignore it and moved on. Inside things were even worse!\u00a0 The furniture was broken and the hallways were putrid. I went into the basement and the lights started to flicker.<\/em><\/p>\n

One dark and stormy night I found myself in a giant corn maze.\u00a0 I could smell the horrible smell of still lifeless decaying bodies of animals and even humans. After what felt like hours of walking, I found the way out. Then I had found a house. I thought \u201cFinally! I found somewhere to sleep!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
