Red Riding Hood

We have been learning to use present participles in our writing. 
Skipping down the old dusty path, Red Riding Hood slipped and bruised her knee. She dropped all her little cupcakes for her gran, but she left without the cupcakes because she could make another batch at her gran's.
Lurking in the forest, Little Red Riding Hood found a big bad wolf snarling, “What’s in your brown basket little girl?”
“Cupcakes for my sick grandma. Chocolate and strawberry flavour. What’s your name?”
“My name is Mr Wolf.”
“Well, Mr Wolf, I’m going to my gran's house. Bye bye.”
Knocking on the door, it opened. Not gran, but the wolf was home. He licked his lips, “Mmmmm!” He gulped her in one second.

Touch Down

We are learning to use a present participle in our writing. 
“Okay! Who ever wins Paper, Scissors, Rock, gets the ball.”
We won. Logan started the game. After Logan got touched, he put the ball on the ground and rolled it behind him. Mia was the dummy half. She got it, then passed it to Mark. He ran as fast as lightning but, on the other team, Bernard Ferguson, there was a faster boy who touched Mark. Scooping up the ball, Mia tossed to Jaquade. He dropped it. It was hand over.
The girl in Bernard Ferguson got it when the referee blew the whistle. She ran. I ran faster than her so I touched her then she rolled it underneath her legs.
