My Short Story

For this piece of writing I have focussing on my vocabulary and punctuation. I have been learning to:

• use a large productive vocabulary across the curriculum (Year 9/10)
• Use a wide range of punctuation appropriately and with increasing accuracy. (Year 9/10)

The pieces of my writing that are highlighted green are where I have shown my vocabulary and punctuation goal.

The Tottenham Hotspurs are really bad.

Harry Kane is a terrible football player. He plays for the Tottenham Hotspurs, and the Tottenham Hotspurs are the worst football team in football history. Harry loves getting red cards. He has never scored a goal, but he is the best player who has ever played for the Tottenham Hotspurs.

Their first game of the 2016/17 season is against Manchester United. There is a massive crowd at the game waiting for the game to start. The Tottenham Hotspurs start the game. Then Harry Kane loses control of the ball and Wayne Rooney scores in the top right corner. Harry Kane dribbles past the defender and shoots the ball at a speed of one kilometer per hour, De Gea easily saves the shot. He then kicks the ball into midfield and Juan Mata receives the ball dribbles past the first defender and does a rainbow over the second defender and shoots in the bottom left corner and scores. Wayne Rooney scored fifteen goals in the first half, Juan Mata scored twelve goals in the first half, Bastian Schweinsteiger scored ten goals in the first half and Memphis Depay scored eight goals in the first half. The referee calls half-time and the score is forty-five to nil...

The whistle for the second half has been blown. Wayne Rooney passes the ball to Juan Mata, and then he passes it back to Phil Jones. Phil Jones runs down the whole field, Harry Kane does a slide tackle. In result, Harry Kane gets a red card and Wayne Rooney takes a free kick. The ball hits the crossbar, the ball comes in the direction of Juan Mata and he scores a goal. Memphis Depay shoots and Hugo Lloris hits the ball out. Wayne Rooney takes the corner and crosses the ball to Juan Mata, who bicycles it into the top left corner. There are three minutes left in the game. The Tottenham Hotspurs have possession of the ball. Harry Kane somehow gets past all the defenders and he is now one on one against De Gea. De Gea rushes up and Harry Kane shoots. De Gea gets the ball and sprints down the field. He gets past all the players and shoots in the top right corner from outside the box, Hugo Lloris reaches for the ball. The shot only just goes in. The referee blows the whistle for the end of the match.

Wayne Rooney scored thirty-three goals, Juan Mata scored twenty-five goals, Bastian Schweinsteiger scored twenty-one goals, Memphis Depay scored fifteen goals, Marcus Rashford scored three goals, Chris Smalling scored one goal, Jesse Lingard scored one goal and De Gea scored one goal. The final score is ninety-nine to nil.

After Harry Kane’s red card he is banned for the rest of the season. Harry Kane has signed a contract with Aston Villa for the 2017/18 season. Harry Kane is glad that he doesn't need to play for the Tottenham Hotspurs.
