Question 1
Rewrite this short story, using descriptive details and sensory language to better convey the character’s experience and internal thoughts/feelings in the African savanna. Be sure to use your knowledge of the African savanna to add relevant and accurate details to this story.
Kit and Matthew began their adventure at the watering hole. They had two days to see all the wildlife they could. Their parents and their guide kept them safe.
The first morning ten elephants claimed the waterhole for their morning bath. Soon Kit counted eighteen zebras coming for water. A dozen baboons wandered in and started making noise and acting silly. Matthew laughed hard and loud at their antics. His noise sent the nearby zebras running off.
The next day everyone rode into the bush. They paused to look at a lone rhino standing in a clearing. While they were looking, the rhino began to charge them. Kit and Matthew screamed, but the guide drove them to safety.
After two days, everyone was tired. They’d seen no leopards, or hyenas, or cheetahs. Lions hadn’t roared, but a rhino had threatened them. What an exciting adventure they had!
