on the bus

Hello Readers, Today I am going to be showing you my show, don't tell writing. We had to show our feelings not tell our feelings. Here is my writing. 



 My heart was beating so fast that it felt like a cheetah was running inside my chest.  As I jumped from the burning building, I could feel the wind rushing through my hair. My feet landed on a smooth, yellow surface. I realised I was moving down the road on top of a bus! I was trying to balance on the edge so I didn’t fall. My sweaty feet were shaking and my hands were clenched into fists. It felt like crabs were crawling and pinching inside my stomach. My cheeks felt as hot as lava and my mouth was frozen open as wide as an orange.   

I could not move.   The  End

  4. Hi Scarlett, I love your story! My favourite part was when you found that you had landed on the roof of a bus! I thought it was really clever not to give that away straight away! You have worked really well to use show, don't tell. Keep up the great writing!
