The Number 1 Delish

        Walt: use language that paints a picture in the mind of our reader.
The Number 1 Delish
Jaffas chocolate, mmmmm so yum it makes you want more and more and more and more.


Jaffas chocolate is a mixture of cadbury milk chocolate and pieces of jaffas. The price of the jaffas chocolate is $3.50. It is a special edition king size chocolate.


When I saw the red in the chocolate instantly I knew it was Jaffas chocolate so I just couldn't wait to eat it because I loved it. The smell was as rich as a freshly baked chocolate cake. When I digged in it felt as hard as rock. It was so bumpy in my mouth it felt like I was driving a car on the bumpiness.


If I was to improve this product I would take the pieces of jaffas out and swap it with heaps and heaps of popping candy. I would let the milk chocolate stay the same because if it wasn't for that it would be disgusting.
I would recommend this product a 4. out of 5 because it’s delicious but the jaffas I do not like. I had given it a four because the jaffas was nice only because I ate it with the milk chocolate. If I was too say my favourite chocolate it would be marvelous creations first original chocolate.
Description:On Monday we had a taste of some chocolate. After we ate the chocolate we had to write what we thought of it to paint a picture in your mind.

Bean bags for hire

Bean bags are the most luxurious comfortable cushions to relax and sit on, they are number 1.

During boring class time it begins, once you sit down the adventure starts, its like riding a soft cute dragon on to a tropical island where you go too relax. Instead of sitting on the floor or on a chair, you will be able to show off and sit on the magnificent dragon bean bag to do your work.

The bean bags are filled with cute little soft beans and covered in a nice fluffy rubber skin. They can be moulded into the shape of anything. You can choose good or great to take a seat on the bean bag, or to use it to lean back on.

The bean bags come in two different colours. A light pale blue one, and a sunset green one. It’s your choice which one you want to take and sit on.

The price is 3pt. You pay once at the beginning of the day and then keep the beanbag for the rest of the day.

Remember for 3pt you can sit on the beanbag anytime during class all day.
Description:For this task we had to recraft a peice of writing that our teacher gave to us. We had to write in such a way that it persuaded our reader to hire a bean bag. Some of us had chosen to use the thesauras but I have not.
