Jordan Robinson's Recount Entry

Dear Diary,

It is the year 2001 and I am by the twin towers watching as people jump out if the building trying to get out of the way of the crash, the crash of the 9-11 plane, the plane that hit the Twin Towers.
Who would do such a thing? I walked past and then on the other side of the road I saw a t.v in a shop and a news reporter said that Osama Bin Laden and some of his minions did this whole thing. The reporter said that 9 suicide bombers were on 9-11 and they destroyed the twin towers. Poor people, and stupid Osama. There is about 100 fire fighters and 100 policemen.

And then I remembered, my mum and dad work in that building. I sprint to the building but I firefighter stops me and I start wandering where I can find a vent or a secret hatch into the building. I go around the side and I see about 5, 6 maybe 10 hobo's trying to light a fire. I asked them if there is another way into the building and they asked me if I have any change. So I looked around the other corner and there was a small window that was high up. So I got a nearby ladder and climbed up and smashed the window, it hurt though when I got cut by the glass. I climbed through and there was glass and smashed stuff everywhere, so I called out "mum!", "dad!". There was no response so I looked under stuff and over stuff and finally I found my parents, they quickly woke up and clearly they still were a little unconsious and when they were woken up I helped them down the ladder and we got home safe. That was my action packed day.

Improving the Quality of our Writing

The original purpose of these TIS blogs was to create a way of sharing our writing and creating a wider audience. I am hoping that from now on we will be able to use this blog as a showcase for our writing. It would be helpful for us if viewers of our blog could comment constructively on our writing. For every writing topic we learn about, we always focus our writing around a success criteria. This helps us to focus on the features of that particular type of writing. Viewers could use this success criteria to comment on our writing and help us to improve our writing.
