Hey children,
Hoping you haven’t run into any zombies recently, that would be unfortunate. So today I think it would be helpful if you were to learn what zombies are like, I’m pretty sure that you all have seen a zombie film, but now I’m going to be a nerd and list (from the top of my head – so if I make a mistake, I’m truly sorry) the characteristics of zombies from some zombie films

If these are wrong then I am very sorry but I’m dyslexic so what are you going to do about it?
Although now you have this information, what are you going to do about it? Well I don’t know what the zombies are going to look like but being me, I think I have a pretty good idea. So here are my pointers of what to look out for:
· Changed eye
· Speech replaced with groans
· Flesh wounds
· Animal like instincts and behaviour
· Hunger for flesh
· Pale skin
· Inability to walk
Very basic ways to defeat a zombie:
· Chop off the head
· Shoot in it in brain
· Impale it’s head on a sharp object
· Hit it over the head with a blunt object
I hope I’ve helped you and if I’ve raised any questions feel free to ask :)
