The Worst Thing Ever.

The Worst Thing Ever.

It was 2:30 am on the 25th of April 1915.We were under the cover of darkness.
I was petrified. I had not just butterflies in my stomach
I also was sweating like an endless waterfall.

I was crammed in the landing boat.
It was dead silent. I was very nervous.  I didn’t know if I was going to live or not.

I saw a big light coming from behind me.
It lit up like every where. I could now see everything around me.I heard a bullet going straight beside my ear. Lots of soldiers were dying all around me. Killed by the constant bullets being shot at us. Soldiers were falling out of the boat and sinking fast like the Titanic.

I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder. I thought I was about to die. It was the the worst thing ever….

I am learning to write an interesting recount.
I am so proud of making my recount interesting by using similes and adjectives.
It can be tricky to write in past tense.
The thesaurus can help me by giving me better words.
The next step for me in my learning is to find an interesting topic for me to write about.

This is a very descriptive recount. You have chosen your words carefully to add tension to your story. I like your use of short sentences. Great ending too !! Good Job !
