English: In today's live lesson at 8.45am, you will be learning about how to use similes to make your writing more descriptive. Your task today is to continue writing the next part of your story. You should be up to your 4th paragraph now and this is where the main problem/event happens so make sure you include lots of action!
Try to write up to the point just before your final paragraph that takes the reader back to the zoo ( the beginning scene).Aim to include one or two suitable similes in this part of your story. Here are some of the resources we used in our live lesson to help with your ideas:

As fast as lightning, I bounded towards the scent, desperately hoping that my instinct would be wrong. As I made my way through the dense undergrowth of the forest, vines clung to my fur like a protective cloak.

The thick roots of fallen trees were exposed and tree trunks were laid flat on the floor like soldiers ready for war. Beyond the carpet of trees in the distance, I caught sight of their shadows first; the shadows belonging to the collectors.
Slowly creeping towards the scene, I could see two figures crouching beside my mother. The human gave a thin, vivid moan as she slipped to kneel down beside my mother's lifeless body. It was at this moment that I realised that my mother was dead.
