The castle on the rock

We have been working on writing descriptions this term. We are practicing using interesting words and description within our writing. Last week we wrote a description about the following photograph.

 

Here is Hayley's piece of writing:

A gust of wind blew across the sea although it was not as loud as a wave. Clash, Bang, a few cream coloured bricks fell down and a cluster of birds flew up into the clear blue sky.

The cream castle stood on a huge rock that jarred out of the sea. At the bottom of the rocks, a tiny little door only able to fit one person through at a time. It stood above a ladder. By the ladder there was a small canoe with some oars. There was obviously someone inside. 

There must have been about 1,000,000,000 steps in there. Not, there is probably only about 200 but it seems like it.

Although the castle looks about 1000 years old it is actually only 80 - 300 years old. Two turrets rest on the castle top and there is a mountain in the background. The scene looks beautiful.
