As a class Kahikatea have been crafting some creative writing.
They have been discussing that there are two kinds of writers; the ones who
worry a lot and don’t write much and those who puke and write pages and pages
without stopping to catch a breath. Sometimes we are one kind of writer one day
and another the next and that is okay. The thing about writing Kahikatea
discovered is that sometimes you need to write some rubbish in order to get
some great ideas.
So Kahikatea started by practising the art of writing puke,
not worrying about what they wrote but just letting the ideas flow. They did
this by doing some three minute brainstorms on ‘chewing gum’ and ‘eggs’.
Next through the context of ‘snot’ they wrote similes and
metaphors about all kinds of ‘snot’ experiences. Very gross indeed but
nonetheless incredibly creative. Take a look at some of the wonderful ideas Kahikatea
children wrote about ‘Snot’. Be prepared to be disgusted.
