First draft

My mistake
On one beautiful sunny summer day,  me and my bask were swimming around by the river bed, and resting under the sun, splashing around and making mischief with my friends, in the river, and then my mum called me, so I went home.  i was feeling lucky but I don’t know why, but I felt like something exciting was going to happen, something that involves animals.

Then I heard something, a roar  from a lion.  I poked my head up above the water and peered around. there were lions chasing buffalos, The lions caught a buffalo, a baby buffalo. it was amazing, I knew something cool was going to happen today.  I heard a splash, the baby buffalo was in the water and so where the lions. It was time for me to attack. I swam up to the river bank, but then i noticed something. The buffalo and the lions were up on the bank. I jumped out the water and latched onto the calf, Then I pulled for my life. I could taste the calf's juicy meat, and I could smell the victory. The lions were fighting for the meal, I could feel them tugging. I couldn’t hold on, my strong teeth and jaw wasn’t strong enough, me vs 5 lions, that isn’t fair.  So I just gave up and I let the lions finish the feast.  

I was so devastated, I just let my meal go to a stupid pride of lions.  But I am joyful that the fight is over because I was about to lose my good hunting tooth. My mum will not be happy, but that is how life works.  I am so lazy, I need to get stronger, well off I go, to have more fun.

The lions have spotted the Buffalo and are crouching down and camouflaging so the Buffalo don’t see them.
The Buffalo have spotted the lions running at them and have started to run away.

The lions are running after the calf because the calf is the slowest and the weakest.
The lions have caught the calf by diving onto it into the water with it and then a crocodile came along and he then it turned into a game of Buffalo tug a war.
All of the Buffalo have found the lions and have started to try and take the calf away from the lions.

WW1 Diary Entry


W.A.L.T describe what life was like for men and women in WW1 through a diary entry.


1st September 1915

I hate this experience.  In France the days are getting longer and the population is getting smaller, rows and rows of us are getting sent over the top by the general, he can’t see what’s  happening so all he’s doing is sending us to our own death.  The Germans are using their machine guns, Bang! snipers are taking people out person after person, they are placing landmine that are blowing up our trench.
Our food is terrible dry biscuits and plum jam is all we have to survive flies are pesky and the lice and ticks are a big problem. Trench foot can lead to amputations because we can’t take off our boots.  This isn't the adventure that they promised it would be. This is a flaming hell.  I hope my family is doing ok.

Your Sincerely

Aiden
