5 Minute Writing Challenge! Wow SO Cool.

G'day everyone,

It's Tom. Welcome back to my blog. Today i'm sharing my 5 minute writing with you.

Our amazing teacher Miss D found a cool website called The Most Dangerous Random Prompt Generator (The link is here: LINK!) I used the starting line: "She had missed the last train and there was only one person she could call: It was her father" We are learning to be fluent writers and also know what writing fluency feels like. Now here is my writing.

She had missed the last train and there was only one person she could call: It was her father. He had sadly left her at the age of two. Everyone had loved him. She got his number a couple of years ago. She called him sometimes and he was a train driver. 


Now she had to make a choice I call my father or miss the train. She chose to call her father. 


Hi dad I haven't seen you in a long time but I've missed my train and I need you. If you can... he stopped her. "Yes I can Hun I’m going to pick you up after this train stop what station you at." I’m at station 17. “Ok i’m coming.” Thank you thank you thank you thank you she said. 


She hung up. She was in happy tiers to hear his voice again. Her father came with the train station they hugged both in tiers. Everyone lived happily ever after.

Thank you for reading my writing, if you can please leave a comment. Tom

100 Word Challenge (Hotspot Doc)

Hello everyone,

Welcome back to my blog. Today I'm going to sharing with you my 100 word challenge. We used the starting sentences, "My shoes were soaked and the rain wouldn’t stop. A grey car I didn’t recognise pulled up beside me." We had to write what we would think would happen next. We also had to use strong ideas when writing. Eliminate unnecessary ideas and words. Only include what is powerful, meaningful and important. Now to my Hotspot Doc writing.
 
 100 Word Challenge

My shoes were soaked and the rain wouldn’t stop. A grey car I didn’t recognise pulled up beside me. The guy exquisite pulled down the window. “It’s a blustery powerful wet day he said.” I felt disillusioned, angry and fragile as soon as he said that. He had a deep life changing voice. “Do you want to have a lift home.” When I heard that I was scared and overwhelmed. I said in a cheeky voice i’m not going home.“ I can take you where you want to go.” I said optimistically said no and walked away.

Here is my evidence that I did 100 words
