I finally got Jake to write about the Marquesas and what his favorite things to do were. In completing this story, we started talking about the questions you ask yourself when you're reading or writing a story: who, what, when, where, why and how. It proved to be a lot to think about, but I think his story turned out just fine. Judge for yourself.
My Favorite Things in the Marquesas, by Jake McKaskle
Short cut in Hiva Oa
I like everything about the short cut we found to get to the boat. I like going down and climbing dow
Swimming
I like playing in the water and looking at fishies. I didn't get to go swimming with the dolphins but I did get in the water. I was too late. They were fast.
Hiking
When we went hiking, I liked the same thing about the short cut. I loved swimming in the waterfall and I like splashing around. We pretended we were bronta scorpians.
The End.
Here are the answers to his 6 questions...
