Literacy Homework - Fog!!

The below photographs were taken yesterday by @MPSinthesky, a Twitter account managed by those flying London's police helicopters.  They do a very important job protecting our city, and they also get a great view, which they like to share!

The first picture shows the fog covering everything but the very centre of London, and the second one is of Canary Wharf, with the skyscraper buildings poking out above the fog!

The pictures really made my imagination start to race! Imagine if the fog was thicker? Imagine if it didn't go away? What if the fog started to creep into the buildings?  If anyone is reading The Magician's Nephew with Mr Wright, you may have read about a very thick, mysterious foggy light...

Imagine you are in the middle of this foggy city. Write a description of your surroundings. Think about what you can see and hear. How do you feel? Are there other people around you? Who might you meet there?

Let your imagination go for a wander into this strange new place! 

I look forward to reading your contributions by Wednesday 18th December.
