Here's the post for the
SMS contest. You know: you have to write a (very) short story using
no more than 160 characters - including blank spaces; abbreviations, such as CU (for see you) or emoticons :) if they are easy to interpret. You can post your mini-tales to the comments row - remember: anonymous messages will be discarded. The
deadline will be set
Friday 14th October at midnight. A group of teachers will vote for the best stories.
So, on your marks..., get set..., ready... Go!!!

ResponderEliminar"When he woke up, the dinosaur was still there." 46 characters, the shortest tale ever, by Augusto Moterroso.
ResponderEliminarOriginal: "Cuando despertó, el dinosaurio aún seguía allí."
Está bien así profe?¿
ResponderEliminarSi tiene menos de 160 y se entiende vale, pero, piensa que es un concurso y lo que se pide es un relato, una narración, un cuento, muy corto, pero cuento al fin y al cabo. Podéis presentar los mini-relatos que queráis cada uno .

ResponderEliminarA little boy walked around park and watch a big castle.The castle is magic and speaks inglish.
ResponderEliminarPerdona, Mª Jesús, con tanto comentario se me pasó comentar tu cuento de los cerditos: está fenomenal (el único fallo que veo - y es pequeño - es que creo que la palabra que quieres usar es "tit", no "teat" :)
ResponderEliminarTu cuento, Andrea, no lo entiendo muy bien al acabar en puntos suspensivos; un par de cosillas: mira a ver dónde colocas los adjetivos (pretty & very happy) y, mejor, utiliza el pasado. Por lo demás, estupendo... y nos contarás qué significa ese final tan abierto :)
El tuyo, Nerea, muy chulo; como el que escribió antes Elena, deja mucho a la imaginación del lector, pero es muy coherente. Estupendo :)
Carlos, mejor este que le primero que enviaste: sólo un par de fallos, a ver si los encuentras tú. Primero, los verbos: elige un sólo tiempo para todos; el segundo "inglish" ¿eso qué es? :D

ResponderEliminarI had a very samll wrist. So small that did not exist.
ResponderEliminarUff, ¡¡qué montón de historias!! Gracias por participar, chicos :)
ResponderEliminarFrancisco: You're a real Barça supporter! Just go over your text and try to find all the missing "s".
Pablo: your tale is a little bit longer than 160, but I'm sure you'll be able to cut it down. And try to look for mistakes. Here's some clues: past tense, better than present; winner≠ win; racing≠races; very old TO compete ;)
Natalia! Great joke! That IS fat! Good!
María, right to the point and a little scary micro tale. Good one! Thank you.
