Writing Sample

Yesterday we were given four pictures to write about as a writing sample for Mr Billings. And this is mine. 

Learning to swim. Isla

“Hurry up Bill, remember last one to the troth is a rotten egg.” Yelled Bob.

“Oh ok.” Bill yelled back.

They both started racing towards the feeding troth where the farmer dumped his breakfast scraps from the day before.

“I won.” Screamed Bill hitting the side of the trough.

“No I won.” Yelled Bob sliding up next to him.

“Lets just call this a tie.” said Bill.

“Fine by me.” agreed Bob.

As they started wolfing down their breakfast.

“Oh I just got a mouthful of dry bacon.” “Hey Bill where does bacon come from, it tastes so good.” Asked Bob.

“I don't know but it's pretty good.” agreed Bill.

As they finished  breakfast they wandered over to the river to have a drink when suddenly a shadow was cast above us it was Billy.

“What are you ham steaks doing at the edge of the river.” He laughed

“Getting a drink.” they replied nervously.

“Ok you can have your drink in peace.” He snickerd

“Really.” They said surprised. (Usually Billy would've beaten them up.)

They knelt down to get a drink when Billy showed the in they icy cold river.

“Come on I did not even get a drink” yelled Bob

They started kicking furiously trying to fight the current to get back to dry land.

“Help we can't swim.” They yelled.
