This term, we have been learning how to do procedural writing. This is my writing about a game called bang bang that we learnt with Miss Toia.

Bang bang

Equipment

A bunch of people

Space to spread out in a circle

Rules

1. You need a person in the middle of the circle
2. The person in the middle has to say a name of a person in the circle.
3. If your name is said, you duck down quickly and the people on each side of you have to try and “shoot” eachother by making guns with their hand and yelling BANG! First.
4. If you are not fast enough to shoot, and you get shot first, you are out and have to sit down.
5. The game carries on until there are only 2 players left in the circle.
6. When there are only 2 players left, players go back to back and start walking away from each other.
7. When the caller yells GO!, the players must turn around and shoot each other. The fastest one wins.

Here is my writing about Animal Town

Woooow! I drove into Animal Town and it was a nice sunny day. I walked into the Sheriff's Office and there was an Orangutan in there. I didn't know it was an animal in the office, I thought it was a person. It was a weird town, it's not the same as a human town as it has just got animals not people like us and the town is smaller than ours. The orangutan looked like a monkey and it sounds like a baboon.When I got there, the orangutans welcomed me into their town and invited me for a welcoming to meet everyone. After I met everyone, I left to go home.
