The Highwayman

We are becoming really involved with the Highwayman now and are now at a crucial stage in the play. We will soon find out how it ends and begin rehearsing for our assembly. On Friday we wrote our own scene description and I was so impressed with the quality of writing. It was especially pleasing as I taught the lesson at the end of Friday afternoon when we were all feeling a little sleepy. A special mention to Ayman, All, Zumorod, Mustak, Iman, Ekhaw, Saphra, Nazmul, Rudaba and Mariam who wrote excellent pieces of work!

The bare highway loomed ahead endlessly. In the distance all you can see is misty fog. As silence spreads through the air, danger is approaching closer and nearer. It is moonlight. Dark as a black cat, the road is bare, the trees have no leaves on them. The old inn-door is dusty and filthy. Bess is watching outside. There are unknown sounds. The pond is shallow and dirty, you can hear frogs creaking. There is manure on the door that has a bad smell. You feel as if something is going to come up to you and JUMP!!! King George's men are firing up to the old inn-door.....

The bare highway loomed ahead endlessly in the distance. There were trees making sounds and all the leaves had fallen out of the trees, and Bess the landlord's black- eyed daughter was waiting for her true love the Highwayman and the floor was full of bricks.

The bare highway loomed ahead endlessly. In the distance all you can see is misty fog. As silence spreads through the air, danger is approaching closer and nearer. You can imagine the smell of manure and it is very sparse. It is so gloomy and the path is bumbly. It is empty and silent. You can hear echoes, echoes and echoes, you can hear echoes. You can also smell damp. It is spooky and cloudy. You can see dust and it is shadowy. The road is narrow and dull, even rocky in some places. The weather is cold and fresh. You won't hear a word until King George's men come marhcing. The wind is blowing all the dust and it is just death.
