Arctic Circle

Before you start writing think about the following questions:

What is happening? Where is the man? Is he human, how can we tell?  Why is he there on his own?  What option will he choose?

Create  

WALT create an internal monologue for the main character.

We know we have done this when:

We have written what the character is thinking as he discovers what the box of magic is able to do and decides what he will do now?

One day I was standing in the freezing cold spinning and spinning a rusty crank handle.The crank handle brings up water from the well and puts it in the tree so it can grow nice green apples.Finally a nice green apple pops out of the tree  I suddenly pick it and I look around to see if anybody is around.I don't see anyone so I have a nibble and I go to the core of the green apple.Suddenly something goes across my eye and it is a brown box it is  as brown as dried up flax.

I go over to it and I touch it and it is magic a magic ox I thought to myself is there such thing as a magic box I can't believe it there is a magic box in front of me.Then I touch it again and it puts magic in me. I have red hand and move back from and I touch the the nice green apple tree and pop pop pop these green apples pop out of nowhere they are as green as moss on a rock.I pick another apple I squint and and look at the box’s again and I take a step and and the box's moved and moved and moved every step I took the box moved with me.It tried to run away but it couldn't because I ran with it and then it stop and I stopped in front of it. I grabbed it and then something happened I stomped and my foot turned into a box stomp again my other foot turned into a box.my bottom half of my body was a box so I reach my hands out and try to get to Tim's house oh no it’s too late I am a box I move to Tim’s house Tim walks out to wind the waller I wonder if it will start over and over again...
