The Wild Cat

Room 1 have been busy doing recounts.
If you don't know what a recount is is a piece of writing about something that happen in the past.
Our learning intentions was to describe. Our success criteria was:
*use some long and short sentences
* use juicy verbs to start a sentence
* use a simile or a metaphor
 *Keep to one main idea in each paragraph
I found it easy keep to one idea in each paragraph because my brainstorm helped me. I found it quite challenging to add a juicy verb at the start of a sentence. I need to come to a workshop with Mrs Naden on that.

This is my recount enjoy.

I overheard my instructor say do you want to try a side flip. I immediately thought YES!! The rest of the way down to the jump I was like a little kangaroo bouncing up and down.

As  soon as I got to the jump I immediately stopped and glazed at the jump. It looked scary. These two boys went  before me, they a lot better than me and they can't do it.

 It got to my turn, everyone else had left how much time left so it was just me. Finally I had got a spot  I started to countdown 3,2,1,Go! Wind flew past my ear so fast I couldn’t hear my own voice. I got the jump popped off and... I couldn't even get a quarter of the rotation I was so disappointed how did my instructor do it.

 As soon as I got to the chair lift I told my brother “I tried it”  he replied “what the wildcat” “ yeah” I said of course he didn't believe me until I told him I didn't even get a quarter of the rotation. After that I felt proud of myself for trying and I would definitely do it again.
