    Sight imagery
"The Tyrant Lizard, the most incredible monster in history."Visual imagery is written so we can see what the author describes. In A Sound of Thunder, there is a lot of visual imagery.
The muscles around his mouth formed a smile as he put his hand slowly out upon the air, and in that hand waved a check for ten thousand dollars to the man behind the desk. The reader can see  the smile an see the check waving in the man's hand.  It is good to use imagery of sight is because it describes what sight imagery is and tells a bit more about what is happening.

"A Tyrannosaurus Rex. The Tyrant Lizard, the most incredible monster in history. Sign this release. Anything happens to you, we're not responsible. Those dinosaurs are hungry."

Homework

Immigrants moving to Great Britain 
1.
most of the immigrants moving to Britain are from the U.S., India, Poland and most of all the immigrants are from every part of the globe from places like Australia and Canada
which they a pretty far from Britain plus they are not just taking a ordinary plane of boat to Great Britain.
2.
Immigrants moving to France 
the big groups moving to France are immigrants from Portugal, Monaco and Italy the other Immigrants are coming from small country's like some in Africa, around turkey but most of them have to paddle in a small rubber boat like the one on the news how the boy drowned.

Immigrants trying to get a globe
who: immigrants 
what: immigrants traveling 
where: Germany 
when: September 10th


A major ferry crossing from Germany to Denmark has been partly closed after hundreds of migrants refused to disembark on arrival, demanding to be taken onward to Sweden, as Europe's migrant crisis spreads northward. Also most of the I immigrants are trying to get not just to dennmark but other countries such as USA, or they will just stay in Europe.
"But the fact that 10 senior chief executives from different parts of England have signed this letter reflects the strength of concern across the NHS.
"The public might, like us, be surprised to learn that the list of occupations with shortages includes computer games designers and even ballet dancers - but not nurses."
The Migration Advisory Committee is reviewing this aspect of the immigration system but is not due to report until the end of the year. 
The NHS leaders argue action is needed before then - because extra UK nurses who are in training now will not be available until 2017 at the earliest.

New homework

Hungary sends more migrants to camp.
Where?: In southern Hungary up into Eastern Budapest.
Who?: Migrants from Syria.
What?: Migrants trying to get to Germany by train at Kelety station.
When?: Around 23th August and continued (by more migrants arriving)
How?: Because all of these people are assylum seekers.
How I felt: I felt really sorry for them but then grateful at the same time as well as I also worried that some of them might try to steal or break into people's houses. Also I felt very sad and upset especially when I heard that one man was sleeping on empty water bottles instead of the cold concrete. It is awful that they have nowhere to go and settle. I thought about if I was in their situation, how would I feel? Having to leave my home and country with only the essential items I could carry. 
Now the migrants are travelling to Austria on the A1 motorway. I think it is a terrible idea as it is very dangerous because of traffic and may cause accidents. An alternative would be to walk via the fields as they could also stop and camp over night. My sympathy is towards the drivers - it is not their fault. 
Finally, the situation is still not solved as the migrants now travel to Austria by road on foot and we will see what happens next. The Hungary prime minister Viktor Orban said
" it isn't a European problem, it is a German problem".

Pancakes are better in Canada than Europe because of the way they are cooked.
Canadian pancakes are cooked in a different way buy putting bacon fat in the pancake when you are cooking the pancake. Also to add to the pancakes you could add butter and maple syrup for the flavour and for the taste, as well as you could add blue berries to it and or fruit in the mixture.


Migrants moving into Europe

The migrants are crossing though Hungary and passing Croatia
Are stranded there because the Hungarian police? are or have closed their
Border so that no migrants can enter Hungary and go to Germany by train.
Also now the EU system is falling apart and that it is falling apart is that the EU system
Is not working which is that if migrants enter the first European country, they have to stay there.
The first country in the EU to be entered by the migrants is Greece but Greece said the system isn't working because all the migrants are travelling to different countries.
Have been travelling when that is against the EU system.

My opinion is that they should close some borders to some country's
Because they won't just get given a job because have they bought there
Cv's or a house to live in and they won't have a computer or a tablet
To work on.
