It was a beautiful morning so we went out to the woodlands for some inspiration for our writing. We wrote down words that recorded what we saw, heard, smelt and felt. We did some free writing to share our morning!
In the Woodlands by Chloe
In the woodlands I see fungus on logs, flags on trees, mystery dens and holly bushes. As I walked down the woodlands I hear birds tweeting lovely songs. Every step I take I can hear sticks cracking. I was so excited at first and I started to get calm as I went but I got very cold. When I sniffed I smelled the lovely smell of fresh air. I even smelled a tree. It smelled like earth and moths. The dirty ground smelled like grass.
The Woodland by Nikola
In the woodland. Long branches that look like monster claws spread across the sky looking like they want to grab me. I saw a big, green, brown bent tree and lots of brown leaves, branches, grey feathers and other things. The birds were tweeting. All the cars and the planes sounding creepy but also dogs barking at us. I felt the sun and the wind, also the cracking branches under me. All the nature up my nose. Feeling weird from head to toe. All the bugs under my feet, really creepy wanting to bite. I take my feet away, scared there’s glass under my shoes. With brown leaves stuck to you and fuzzy birds nests up in the trees.
Out in the Woodlands by Tom
My eyes burn from the sunlight as it glistens on my face. The smell of smoke blocks my nose. Crunching twigs snap beneath my feel while birds chirp like there’s no tomorrow. As I look up the birds jump from branch to branch. Twigs and leaves sneak into the back of my shoes.
The Nature Woodlands by Billie
When I went to the woodlands I saw leaves falling down from the trees. My feet crunching when I walk. I felt the logs when I was tripping over the wind blowing on my face. Shivers going up my legs. The I felt Lucy touching my feet. I walked on and heard the birds singing in the trees. Then I heard airplanes flying across the sky. I heard Owen tapping on his white board. Then I see lots of frosty mud crunching and breaking. I see fuzzy nests in the trees made out of lots of sticks. Then I smell lots of dry wood trying to crawl up my nose. Then I felt good sizzling breakfast coming out of the houses. Then I smell smoke coming from the school.
The Woodland by Elle
Leaves were crunching whenever I stepped on them. I heard birds tweeting in the sky. The wind was blowing in my face whilst an airplane flew in the sky. I wandered through the woods. I danced about and smelt the beautiful fresh air, it was like I was dreaming. I touched a dirty, bumpy brown tree whilst I walked past a green bush. It rubbed up against me and felt soft. All the wood had beautiful carvings on them. Coldness running through my body, I was shivering. Birds were flying in the sky, leaves falling off the tree. There was dirty grass and dirty mud all over the ground. Tree branches swaying with the wind gently. My day in the woods was so fun. It was a nature adventure.
A Walk in the Woods by Ryan
I was walking in the woods and I heard the beautiful tweeting of birds, however I saw the amazing holly. I feel motivated to have a look around. Nevertheless I smell the wonderful smell of grass growing.
A Walk in the Woods by Abigail
The sun shining on my face. Birds singing all around me, Crunching twigs under my feet. Leaves scattered on the ground. Trees grown so tall. Wind nipping my face. Creatures running all around. Insects in and out of the ground. Smell the smell of nature. Soft under my feet, leaves like pudding. Moss grown on trees. Birds wings as strong as wind. Leaves blowing all around me. Stones being moved by ants. Roots of trees under my feet. Big trees, small trees, trees split trees in half. Twigs being used for dens. Big branches scattered on the ground. Holes for in trees for owls, plants been grown.
A Walk in the Woods by Muhammad
I can hear bird tweeting and singing as I walk in the frosty air. I can feel the leaves and branches below my feet. I can see the cold sun shining on my cold face. I touch the old tree with my eyes closed trying to calm my nerves. It makes me feel that I am special. I can hear the cars and buses on the distant road. I feel the wind gliding onto my face and hands. I can see the wind pushing the leaves. I can hear the wind as I quietly sit on a chunky log.
A Walk in the Woods by Rachel
As I walk in the subtle, tranquility of the woods I can hear the birds chirping and singing beautifully. I love the beautiful and peaceful atmosphere as the sun glistens in the day. I feel very joyful as I pass by a birds nest filled with chicks. The trees blow in the wind I stand and let the breeze blow in my face.
A Walk in the Woods by Nia
As the crisp leaves crunch under my feet, the bright sun shines in my eyes and I am blinded by the beautiful beauty. Silently the cool breeze blows against my face and birds tweet throughout. My breath is visible and the damp bark is something I smell as my mind is at peace as all is quiet. Shadows are dark against the floor. Big holly bushes pick the air and nettles sting the ground. Bird nests lay in the oak tree and baby birds are looking hungry. Squelchy mud and dirt cover my shoes and rocks have moss creeping up them. Grass is growing and stumps are icy while logs are rolling. Bugs are walking on my page as I write away.
A Walk in the Woods by Andrew
I hear pigeons calling in the trees and many other birds. There’s a cold, gentle breeze blowing on my face but I’m not the only one. The cold air sends shivers down his spine. All the trees are bare except for some holly trees but the stone I’m sitting on makes me wet. As I look around I see some rubbish but the sight gives me light. Some dens are here but the birds and insects you can barely see but you can hear. There are some brambles but they are not ready to be eaten. I sit there smelling something stinky. I taste coldness in the air. As I walked along leaves crunched under my feet. I never want to go because it was too fantastic
