My Mini Beast And A Bit of My Writing

 The brown muddy water is sitting still right beside me. I leap as high as a Jumping spider, My tongue can extend like a Frog. My eyesight is as good as having 20 eyes and I can see even behind myself. And I have a hard exoskeleton. I am the perfect insect. As I am the perfect insect I eat mostly pests such as flies, maggots, rats and more. Though this perfect insect will face his hardest challenge. Meeting a human. The insects' eyes let him see a giant coming towards him. Bump! Bump! Bump! The little insect behind him sees a giant coming. He trembles in fear as it's his first time seeing one. He wonders then it snaps. Is that what my colony calls a giant? They say they’re destroyers have killed thousands of us. I return back to the colony in the trees. My People are feasting on a cockroach as I walk in.I pay no mind though. 


Our colony has been getting smaller and smaller ever since they went out searching for food. I'm not sure what happened to them but our queen is still here and that's what matters most. The queen’s only job is to lay eggs for us and lead us. If we didn't have her we wouldn't even be alive. That's how important the queen is so workers' lives don't matter as much. When I was out next to the muddy brown water I was supposed to be scouting for food for us to eat since right now we are very scarce on food and water that’s why our people have been traveling long lengths to get just a little bit but last time it was a disaster no one got back and no one knows what happened. Im suspecting a giant destroyer other people are suspecting it was a flood though no one knows.

  1. Kia ora Jet! What a very descriptive piece of writing, well done. You have used topic specific vocabulary to paint a picture in the reader's head of what your mini beast looks like and how it's features work to ]help it navigate the environment. Including the first mini beast's first sighting of a human and how it links to the problem is a sophisticated theme; connecting the impact humans have on nature, especially our smaller creatures. You have used our collaborative planning as inspiration with great effect. Great work!
