Descriptive Writing inspired by The Highwayman 08/2/19

In English we have been using The Highwayman by Alfred Noyse. We started by performing the poem, which was great fun! Next we wrote our own versions of it using our own characters, settings and plot. Below you can see how we then turned our poems into a narrative. Look out for those devices to create atmosphere!
