Blog hop pobble writing-The watchers

Lucy wrote a note to her parents and packed a few things that she thought she might need, she set off on her journey at dawn the next morning. Before she left she took one quick and perhaps her last look at her parents, they were both knocked out from the night before. She had arrived in front of a large crows nest. She snatched the egg but they went crazy when they found out their egg was missing. They chased after Lucy and slashed her open with their razor sharp claws. They eat her insides whilst maggots also feast.


WALT: write a piece of writing based off of a picture from Pobble365 that is has a word count of exactly 100 words.

The picture I choose:

Do you think you would have been able to write exactly 100 words?

The Town Poem

   Walt: write a memoir inspired by James K Baxters "The Town"

 The town was usual enough; it had
A cinema, many gyms, a few restaurants, an uneven Terrain throughout, and even some buskers along the path. My friend and I did what mischievious Kids do - chill on the benches, 
buy some junk food, and dodge the crazy people trying to give us hugs, dashing like pro athletes amongst clothes in stores without a sound, finally leaving and peacefully reading in the library or just walking around being nosey.
Doing nothing important.

Duffy theater writing - moment in time



The Dismantler
Boom, thud hey why did you break my spiral staircase. Whenever the Dismantler sees construction she destroys it. Inconveniently Duffy is wearing a muscle suit that looks like bricks so the Dismantler is trying to destroy him. “Quick go into a ball she won’t destroy anything that isn’t the shape of a rectangle or a square.” Few I am safe maybe I should change skins man all that’s left is this yellow thing, oh well it will have to do. Hello, fluffy chicken ah no I am Duffy oh ok hello Duffy chicken. Says the Dismantler.

Explaining how to play netball.


Explaining how to play netball.

Netball is a really enjoyable game that is played all around the world. This particular sport can be quite competitive and can also be a pretty active game played mainly on outdoor courts measuring 30.5 meters long, 15.25 meters wide. Teams will have different amounts of players depending on the year groups of the competitors.


This sport involves having three positions, attack, defence, and my personal favourite centre. There must be two players for each position, with subs if you are lucky. Attack and defence are pretty similar but only the attacks can score. This is where defence and attack are similar as they can both only go on two-thirds of the court. Centres can go anywhere except for the shooting circle. When defending you must be at least a meter away from the player that is in control of the ball. 


All players are not allowed to move with the ball because that would be called stepping. You can only pivot which is when one foot is on the ground and you use the other foot to turn yourself around to make it easier to pass to your other team members. You must pass the ball down to the hoop that your team is shooting in. After passing the ball, you run to try and catch the ball again. The team with the most points wins. The attacks must be in the shooting circle to be able to score points.


There are many penalties in this sport, the main ones are, stepping, obstruction, contact, and replay. Stepping is when you lift your feet off the ground while the ball is in your hands. Obstruction is if you are defending too close to the player with the ball. Contact is when you touch one of the other players while trying to defend. Replay is when either you bounce the ball then receive it again, or if you try to shoot a goal and it misses the hoop completely and you catch it again.


Netball is a very fun game that anyone can play whether they just want to get fit or even just have a good time, anyone can play. Netball is a sport that you can play in any weather and still have fun, except for in conditions like tornado, hail or thunder and lightning.
