Year 10 Creative Writing about the Plague - Kilesa

10TFe spent some time studying the time of Plague in Europe as their introductory English topic. As part of the formative assessment, they completed some creative writing. We learned about different types of narration, and chose to use first person narration to tell our stories.


My Plague Story
Steven Lotto was at home when the disease came into town. He was watching television with his dad until he heard crying. He told his dad and his dad ran outside to see if those people were okay. Steven’s dad saw a little girl and a boy crying in the streets for their mum, and all Steven’s dad could see was that she had collapsed and had sores all over her face. He dragged her into his house and said to Steven ,“Son can you get me a couple of blankets, a bottle of water and a pillow please.” Steven ran and got what his father told him to get. Steven’s dad tried very hard too bring back the little girl and boy’s mother. But she died. Stevens dad was very sad and he knew he had too tell the little girl and boy that their mother had died. He was so sad and he knew he had to put the body some where. He didn’t know where to put the body so he burnt it in the back of his house. As he was burning the body Steven’s dad told Steven to take the little boy and girl inside so he could burn the body. He did. When Steven’s dad had finished burning the body he told the little girl and boy that their mother had died. And they both started crying. And all Steven’s dad could think about was the little girl and boy.
