Your task
From where you have read up to in Toad Heaven you are to write a paragraph with your predictions as to how you think the novel will end. I want to see correct spelling of names, capital letters and full sentences with lots of adjectives.
For example, I might write.
When Limpy woke up he realised he had been set free in a whole new exciting world: a national park. All around him was an exotic wilderness, so much better than the dark swamp. He knew at once that he must send for the others so he set out on the muddy track to find some help. A big white seagul was on the dirty path and Limpy asked him to go to the swamp and tell the others the exciting news. As the white seagul was also new to the park he fully agreed, he too thought it was a wonderful place. Flying quickly to the swamp he told the others, all the Rellies thought it sounded unreal and listened intently to the seaguls instructions on how to get there. They all hopped as fast as their little legs could carry them and soon joined Limpy. With a gleaming crown they declared Limpy king of the cane toads and they all lived in the park happily ever after.
See what a difference the adjectives make, if you can’t then re read what I have written without the adjectives.
Once you have written your paragraph you are to let your ‘buddy’ know and then you are to read each others and leave a comment on each others blog. You are to make one comment on the adjectives used and one comment on whether or not you think their prediction will turn out that way or not and why you believe it will or wont.
