My Bush Trip - Setting description

The sweltering heat was beaming down through the crevices of the trees leaves.  It was boiling, so boiling that it felt like the Earth was getting baked. Deep into the bush, birds were chirping and leaves were rustling.  The sound of the stream was getting closer and closer every second. A large slope down a hill was dangerous as it was muddy and slippery. At the bottom of the incline, the transparent river reflected the sun’s rays. The trees were looking down at the forest floor.Birds were swooping from tree to tree faster than the speed of light. The river was flowing and was clear like the water coming out of a tap. The water felt a bit chilly but it was nice to cool down.

Tranquil, stunning and fascinating.  The bush was a place of natural beauty.

WALT:write a prediction for what a story might be about based on the given key words

Lili gets sick while Ana is delivering circulars in her dune buggy.  Suddenly, a rabbit jumps out in front of the car and she smashes the brakes and flips her car forward over the rabbit. Then hits the ground and swerves into a tree sadly all the circulars fell out of the buggy.  Super sadly, the rabbit died from shock. Then she reverses from the tree and takes off through the streets, one person was  super mad because it was his rabbit. Everyone in the neighbourhood thought she was a bad person and everyone had worries about it happening again. She didn't get paid that week and also lost her job.

WALT:Evaluate our prediction after reading the story (Junk Mail by Prue Hilson PT3, no.3 1995)

I give my prediction a 4/10. I predicted correctly that  lili was sick and Ana would deliver the pamphlets also we predicted the buggy would crash and also that there were animals in the story. However we got some parts wrong like Ana being yelled at and Ana picking up the phone.
