Class 46 Handwriting- The Olympics – as per below:

 

Olympic Race

By Victoria Scale-Constantinou

Standing and waiting for the race to begin

I’m quite nervous,

Am I going to win?

Crouching down low, I wait for the gun

Bang! There it goes

We’re starting to run.

My heart is pounding: I’m going to burst

Come on legs, keep going!

I want to come first.

Just one last effort, I pass the line

Am I first, last, where am I?

I stand on the podium, proud and bold

I’m wearing my medal

An Olympic Gold!
