Online Lesson (Term 2, Week 5): A personal response to War

Task 1: Descriptive Paragraph



The war had come to a halt. Many soldiers were left behind on the battlefield, leaving them on their own, even though some parts of their bodies were amputated. The sound of soldiers groaning in agony could be heard everywhere and the thick scent of blood was everywhere. One could feel excruciating pain on different parts of their body, and some were so tired out that they couldn't even lift their heavy guns and push it aside.

Task 2: Diary Entry

A day in the life of World War II
It has been quite some time ever since we had gone to war. We have been told all this is for the sake of our comrades who have sacrificed in World War I. This is also because our economy was falling apart due to the fact that we had to pay heavy reparations to the victors in World War I. Our Nazi leader, Adolt Hitler, was previously in World War I, and was eager for revenge. Well, we had learnt our lessons from World War I and have been improving ever since our defeat in World War I, and we are ready for the World War II. We are always being told that the war would soon be over, but I guess it hasn't ended even after many years now. Its going to be another day with more wars to fight, and we have to be constantly ready in case of enemy ambushes. We are constantly living in fear, because we may lose our lives anytime soon.
