Icarus

: Can I retell the ending of a story using noun phrase and accurate verb choice?

 

They leapt from the tower ledge. As they tumbled from the ledge

towards the stormy raging sea there mighty feathered

wings sprung  open. They shot manifestly across  the sea.

As they rose higher and higher Icarus forgot about the warning that Daedalus had given him. He rose higher and higher.

Next he felt the wax dripping off his colourful wings.

With a stab of horror Icarus realised he was no longer able to fly.

He stared to plumit down towards the dark raging sea.

With an enourmous splash Icarus fell into the sea and moved no more.

 

The Terrible Ending of Icarus

Lo: Can I retell the ending of a story using noun phrases and accurate verb choices?

As the burning wax began to melt, the purl white feathered wings began unfurled. Suddenly wings began to shake with fear. Then they darted across the sapphire sky in a rush! Icarus was petrified at first but then he got the hang of it, in fact he mastered it but started to have excessive pride. Icarus was warned by his father not to fly to high, but he ignored his father and flew higher and higher. The calm breeze started to carrying him up and he was drifting in the azure sky. Icarus was not thinking and then said that he could go higher then the god of the sun Apollo. Apollo over heard what Icarus said so Apollo got furious and then he told the gold glittering sun to shin it sun rays upon the land. So the sun shone its flaming hot sun rays and then the wax began to drip down his back and the plummeted into the deep, rapid sea. The hard navy blue sea started crushing his bone and was never to be seen again by his father ever again. His father wept in sadness.

Icarus sad death

 

Lo: Can I retell the ending of a story using noun phrases and accurate verb choice?

They leapt like new born birds from the tower ledge and there Perl Wight wings opened as fast as a lightning bolt from Zeus and shot up like a catapult. The wings glided gracefully above the neon blue sea. Icrus became over confident and flew as high as an eagle above the clouds and the sun pealed of the wax like a scab. The wings fell apart faster than a shooting star and icrus fell like a rock down the side of a cliff. He froze like an ice scolpcher in fear and wonder if this was his last breath and it was and he slept with the fishes.

Icarus’ Death!

L.O: Can I Retell the story of Icarus?

 

Daedalus and Icarus were trapped in the maze.

Icarus and Daedalus were feeding the birds seeds and picked their feathers .

Icarus flew off and said he can fly higher than the sun.

Daedalus told him not to fly too close to the sun because the wax will melt and he will fall into the sea.

Icarus didn’t listen and he fell into the sea and drowned.

Icarus’ Flight

 

L.O: Can I retell the ending of a story using noun phrases and accurate verb choice?

As they nervously leapt from the tower ledge, they plummeted down towards the glistening beige sand. Then suddenly, the feathered wings unfurled. They shot up! Soon enough Icarus and Daedalus were drifting in the afternoon breeze. At first Icarus was petrified, but in a few minutes, he was gliding through the air like a graceful, swift dove. But then, Icarus started to get over confident. Daedalus had warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun, but Icarus was very big headed. So he flew as high as he could, and said to himself; “I can fly higher than Apollo.” Apollo had heard this, and was very angry. So he told the blazing sun to shoot its blinding sun rays at Icarus.

Icarus had begun to feel drips of hot liquid onto his leg. It was wax. The bright sun rays had made the flaky wax melt and let loose of the feathered wings. He was frozen with horror. Icarus was plunging down towards the deep churning sea, when he crashed into the azure, navy water.

Icarus’ sad death

 

L.O:Can I retell the ending of a story using noun phrases and accurate verb choices?

 

As they leapt from the immense tower ledge, their feathered, powerful wings spread from their blistering backs. The cold breeze was finally out of their faces and they were soaring like eagles in the azure sky. Icarus soon got the hang of flying; he was twisting and turning all over the place. Dadils warned Icarus not to fly to high otherwise the throbbing wax would melt but icarus just kept flying and flying he soon claimed he has better than his father and then he even claimed he was better than the sun God Apollo. At that very second Apollo a woke he was stunned to hear such arrogant words come out of Icuarus’ mouth he melted the wax on Icuarus’ back. Icuarus plummeted down like a lightning bolt as he passed his father dadilis was in disbelieve. But nothing Dadilis did made a difference Icuarus could see rolling, rough sea and he knew it was going to be the end of his life. In just one splash it was over Icuarus had died.

Icarus’s unfortinate flying death

Lo: Can I retell the ending of a story using noun phrases and accurate verb choice?

As they leaped from the tower edge, and plummeted straight down. Their shiny pearl wings swooped them up just before they hit the ground, and took them up to the dark  purple sky . With the cool afternoon breeze at their faces. As they flew for longer Icarus started to understand flying. Icarus started to feel excessive pride. He flew higher and higher closer to the sun. Daedilous shouted to warn Icarus not to fly so high but Icarus just ignored him. He said “ I am the best at flying I can fly higher than the sun god Apollo.”. Icarus didn’t care about what he had done until ….
