Spectacular Spark Writing

Tracey Young —

The following pieces of writing have recently been completed by Spark team. We have a fantastic group of young authors that love sharing their work with the wider school community. Enjoy the pieces below!

My heart is racing.  I sprint as fast as a flash. I'm running furiously with the sun beating down on me. I jump in the crunchy flax. I crawl through the trees. I peer out of the leaves. I jogged around the corner. I spied someone. 

"Bang!"

There Eli was, sprinting away. I run away. I'm panicking.

Tagged. I failed at 'Gang Up'.

Tagged?

Heart pounding, feet aching, out of breath sprinting to find a hiding spot. On high alert that something is coming behind me.  I hide with a bunch of friends. Mikayla is on guard. She loudly calls the code to signal that the taggers are coming. Sprinting to find a spot, while dodging the taggers that are heading at high speed like wild beasts towards me.

"Got you!"

I really enjoy 'Gang Up'.

Arms exhausted, out of breath, head aching, stranded in my hiding spot. Sneaking in behind a tall, colourful building. Mikayla is on guard. Wondering if I will ever be found.

"Popcorn, popcorn they are are coming!"

I enjoy 'Gang Up'.

Running furiously, trying not to get tagged. Yelling nervously, "Tag, tag, tag!"

Lines getting bigger and bigger every second.  Everyone has spread out and that was a great idea. It stayed like that. 

As I ran across the outline, a chain of people are chasing me. I start running faster with more energy as though I was going to run away. 

"Swap time!" was called. Everyone cheers.  

The game is over. Chain tag rules.
