Amelie's 5 Sentence Challenge

On Sunday Prince Charming went with Cinderella to the shimmering, golden, magic river. When they got in it was super cold but they swam underneath anyway. Then, from out of a corner stood a tunnel as long as a giraffes neck. When they swam into it Prince Charming and Cinderella were scared because it was dark and spooky. When they swam out of the gloomy tunnel they both ended up in a sparkling water park and they lived happley ever after.

In English we are looking at traditional tales.  Emilia read some of her Polish tales to us and we recognised lots of them!

We have been learning about new types of sentences that can help us improve our writing.  Today we learnt about Alan Peat 2 adj sentences and we have written about some of the common characters in traditional tales.  What do you think?
