Medusa’s curse by Amy

Greek Mythology tells us many facts. It also tells us that Medusa owned a sofa. She kept it in her cave, hidden from peering eyes. Just as Perseus showed her the mirror, she took a glance at the sofa, turning it to stone. Later on in history, her sofa was moved to a secret garden. Now, anyone who sits on it disappears…

Excited, thrilled, romantic, PJ and I walked towards the secret garden. He held his hand in mine, giving me a gentle squeeze. We sat on a mysterious sofa made of stone, only to go falling into the darkness…

The stone couch by Max

Striking against the stone, the hammer fell once more- sending angry red sparks towards Romulus. His eyes were hollows of determination, his herculean physique which never grew tired, burned with fatigue. Sweat trickled down his forehead, his energy levels were rapidly decreasing.

Behind him a silhouette emerged from the veil of darkness, jealousy had grown rife in this town and even the gods succumbed to its malevolence. Rockas’ amorphous body rearranged itself, turning it into a leviathanesque dragon. Pearlescent scales covered his indestructible hide. Hurtling through the air, corrosive acid flew the air dissolving Romulus. All that remained of him was a stone couch…

As part of our English work, we performed some freeze frames(drama) based on our book, Stig of the dump. We came up with ideas for what the prequel to the book might have been. Following that, we got into groups of 5 or 6 and decided on our freeze frames. One by one we went up infront of the class to show each other our different frames. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the activity.

There was silence which filled the room. We could here foot steps.The children cowered in their class rooms.an awkard clatter echoed.I could hear my heart it was like a drum.
We could see shadows in the corridors,we all were pushed agianst the wall. I got more and more frightend. I needed to let out a cry, the silence was deafeniing. No one made a noise I had to do something, a sqeal escaped from me lips.
How I wish I’d never said anything…

Gradually,as we entered our new home,the floorboards creaked and peculiar shadows towered above us.The chandeliers were luminescent,but darkness filled every corner of the room.Rapidly,I realised footsteps could be heard behind me,but when I turned around nobody was there…

The incandescent moon rose as I entered my room.I crouched behind the bed,trembling and starting to unpack.The silence was deafening.Exhausted,I looked at the picturesque view of the countryside,which seemed serene,but this place was a real horror!Obnoxious smells came through my nose.I was trapped…
