In the story of Beowulf there is a creature named Grendel.  Here is the authors description of him:


Evil suited Grendel.  Half-man, half fiend, he was an extraordinary creature with supernatural strength.  Covered in a green, horny skin that no sword could cut through, he came from a race of sea monsters, giants  and other outcasts.


Can you describe the monster below in four sentences that are as effective as these?  Remember to think about adjectives (descriptive words for the monster).

  5. If you are unlucky enough to encounter Grendel you will smell him before you catch your first horrified glimpse of his rotten green body. Look down at his feet and you will notice enormous claws as sharp as daggers. Risk a glimpse at his cavernous mouth and you'll see gigantic jagged teeth protruding over his mottled grey lips. However - one word of warning. Do NOT glance towards his swamp-like green eyes,for you will not live to tell the tale...... (Mrs Nixon)

    The cheaky smile lowers you in so close he dosent even need to try and catch you. The hard suit that covers the beastly body of the creature is rock solid and scaley green. Sharp pointy teeth guard the mouth. Sea creatures, monsters, giants and outcasts are similar to the Gremline in many ways. He is very extraordinary and fast at everything. Green eyes and matching eyebrows bags cover the whole underneath of the eyes. Half friend and the other half man with super natural strength the Gremline is very dangerous.
