Descriptive Writing

 This term in room five we have been learning about how to write from a picture. The picture we had to write from was this calf picture using present tense,  descriptive words and organising our writing in paragraphs. Hope you enjoy my writing. 

The Calves in the Paddock

 I jog through a gate leading into a lush green grass paddock and start to melt because the light brown jersey calves are drowning me in their slobbery trap. I then try to shove my way through the big crowd of calves, and get free but I then hear the grass start to rustle behind me which means the calves are going to get me in their slobber trap again! Luckily they are all distracted by the calf feeder full of sweet milk and then I know that I am safe from the stampede of calves.

 Then five minutes later the fat milky brown jersey calves are finished their feed of sweet white milk so they go over to the nice green grassy patch of grass and start to graze it. As I look over I can see that they have ears like elephants with fluff inside of them with a round damp wet black nose. I walk over to the jersey calves and start to stroke their soft light milky brown hair, and when I am doing that I can feel it go soft then spiky because I keep going up and down on their nice milky fur.
 I
 keep stroking the calves and then all around me I can hear sounds like the irrigator clicking, the tractor going vroom, and the calves are standing around me and trying to talk to me going “megh”.

 I then start to hear my mum calling me to come home for tea so I leave the paddock and shut the gate to make sure those sneaky little calves don’t get out of the paddock
