Dear Hansel and Gretal's stepmother
ReplyDeleteI am writing this letter because I think it was truly cruel to leave your children in the forest by them selves .I know you have little food, but that's so dangerous.
There is a horrible witch in the forest who tricks children with her sweet house, can you imagine what that witch would do to the poor children ?
Furthermore, there also are nasty bear's in the wood's. How would you like getting eaten by a big bear ?
Yours sincerley, Monica

Dear stepmother,
ReplyDeleteI am writing this to you because i think that is cruel that you left Hansel and Gretel in the wood .They could get lost and be scared .How would you feel if you got sent to the woods all by yourself?They could get kidnapped by the horrible witch that tricks children that her house is made of sweets so she can eat them.
They must be very scared in the woods can you imagen what a bear would do to two helpless children? They could freeze to death.
Furthermore if the children did not return to the house the father will never talk to you.
ReplyDeleteDear stepmother ,
I am writing to you because it is truly wicked that you left hansel and Gretel in the woods. How could you do this to 2 helpless children? They might get kidnapped from a wicked witch. Can you imagine how they might feel all alone in the woods?
Do you know what's in the woods? Now I will tell you. I've heard that there is actually a wicked witch. She tricks children, she makes her house out of sweets. How would you feel if you were kidnapped? I've also heard that the woods are freezing they might freeze to death.
What did they do to make you so angry? You know that it is really dark in the woods. They can easily get lost in the woods. They might get eaten by tigers that have sharp teeth.
Furthermore,they can starve to death. How would you feel if you were hungry and you starved to death.
Your sincerely Najia.

Dear Hansel and Gretel's stepmother,

Dear Hansel Gretal's stepmother,
ReplyDeleteI am writing to you to tell you to tell you that it would be truly wicked to leave poor Hansel and Gretal in the dark and dangerous woods.How would you feel to be left alone in a big scary forest? If you don't have food just grow some more or buy some. I have heard bears and wolfs in the woods.
I knowtheres one very wicked witch she always likes children for her tea, and she tricks them with a house made of sweets. Would you like it if your mom left you in the woods forever?
Please don't leave those poor children in the woods. Bad people always do wicked if be left in the woods forever. Furthermore,it is cold in the woods do you want your children to freeze?
Well done Solomon. This is a very powerful letter! Now imagine you are the stepmother and write a response explaining why you are still planning on leaving Hansel and Gretel in the woods.

Dear Hansel and Gretel stepmother,
ReplyDeleteI am writing to you to tell you that it is unfair to leave Hansel and Gretel in the deep dark woods.
There are bears in the woods. How would you like to be left in the woods with nastey bears. Surely the bears will eat the children.
The children are so yong and the forist is so cold.They will most certainly freez to death.What kind of stepmother would that make you.
I heard that there are woluves in the scary woods and they love to eat children. Would you like to be eaten alive.
Your sincerley Daniesha
Dear stepmother)
ReplyDeleteI am writing to tell you not to leave those poor children in the woods. I know you little to eat but you can still plant but don't leave those 2 children in the woods.
I've heard that there's an evil animal and a wicked witch? Hansel and Gretel could get eaten.
imagine a bear ate the two poor helpless children?
furthermore it's freezing in the woods. do you want the children to freeze to death?
instead you can plant your own yams / broccoli / plantain and onions.
yours sincerely zara

Dear Hansel and gretl's stepmother I think it is truly wicked to leave your children in the woods you should be a shamed of your self because would you like it if your stepmother left you in the woods.It may be difficult because there's not much food for you to eat but you should be able to take care of 2 children. It is indeed scary out in the forest because bears and wolfs are in the forest yours sinserely

ReplyDeleteDear stepmother how dare you leave young children in the woods don't you have a heart that is cruel i can't believe some one would be so mean to do this to there own children they deserve better you treat them like rubbish I can't stand you. your evil!
ReplyDeleteDear Hansel and Gretels stepmother,
ReplyDeleteI am writing to you because I think it is a horrible idea to send poor Hansel and Gretel out in the forest.
Eventhough you are their step mother and you don't like them very much because you think they get in your way there's no need for you to through them away like their rubbish, but I think that you should send Hansel and Gretel into the forest you should treat them like your own children.
Your sincerely Amarnie
Dear Hansel and Gretel's step mother,
ReplyDeleteI am writing to tell you to pick up your step children from the woods.I think you should do it because what kind of step mother would do that.How cruel of you.You would have not liked it if they did that to you.Even though you hate them there is no need to throw them out like that.You should treat them how you want to be treated.Do you know whats in the woods bears,wolfs I think you should get them from the woods before the animals eat them.
Dear the evil stepmother, I am writing to you because I believe it's a bad idea to leave Hansel and Gretel in the forest by them self. Doing this you may be putting your self into jeopardy. The best thing to do is not leave the children in the forest by them self, the children maybe a target for wolf and witches. I have no more to say apart from be a good stepmother and treat the children like there your own.
ReplyDeleteDear stepmother,I am writing to you because it's very foolish of you to leave Hansel and Gretel in the forest.Do you even know if they are in so much DANGER like...they get riped by a wolf
