My entry for Mr Parr's challenge.

Early in the afternoon it grew dark, darker than it should have been for two o' clock. The clouds looked heavy and the temperature fell. Lisa sat at her desk trying to figure out a tricky maths question but her eyes kept straying to the window. Lola, who was sitting at the next desk, leant over and whispered, "Look at that, I think it's going to snow!!!" Three whole years and no snow. It was becoming a joke! Suddenly there was a gentle tapping at the window. Lola jumped up and shouted excitedly, "I was right!!!" Lisa was a quiet girl but even she was leaping around.

At break time the children charged into the playground like stampeding elephants. White candy floss was falling out of the sky. It was really christmas this year!
