1.<\/strong> It’s going to snow. It’s not snowing yet but’s going to snow this evening. We don’t care if you don’t think it’s going to snow, Mum, because a boy at school said it was going to snow and his mum’s a farmer<\/em> and she said you can get snow in November, Mum, you can. It’s going to snow before dinner it is and if it doesn’t it’s going to snow during<\/em> dinner you’ll see, Mum, you’ll see!<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> It’s going to snow. It’s going to snow this evening once it gets dark and we’re going to sit here and watch out the window until it does and even then if it doesn’t snow this evening it’s definitely<\/em> going to snow tonight while we’re asleep and then we’ll wake up and there’ll be snow everywhere and it’s going to be so amazing, Mum, it’s going to be just like Christmas, not real Christmas but pretend Christmas from a book<\/em>! It’s going to snow in the middle of the night and when we get up and look out the window it’s going to be like we’re on the moon.<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> It’s going to snow. It’s going to snow today, Mum, while we’re at school<\/em>, and we’ll be in the classroom and we’ll see it snowing outside and we’ll all run to the windows and watch it and it’ll be like being in a film<\/em>, Mum, and then we’re all going to go outside and play in it and throw snowballs at everyone and make snowmen and and and igloos!<\/em> and we’re going to crawl inside<\/em> the igloos and pretend to be penguins and eat snow just like real penguins and it’s going be the best day ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever everve evrevevrveevevevevevevevevvevvvvevvev<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> It did not snow. <\/p>\n

5.<\/strong> It was never going to snow ,was it?. <\/p>\n
