Acrostic poem

WALT: Write an acrostic poem using alliteration.

Ambulance arrived on time to rescued people

Numberouse nature destroyed

Gigantic great valuables were lost
Rustling roof tops spinning out of control
Yelling yaks ran away from the danger

Figurative language

For the past few days we have been learning about figurative language. There are nine figurative languages and they are similes, metaphors, personification, hyperbole, onomatopoeia, imagery, rhythm, Alliteration, assonance and repetition. I enjoyed learning about figurative language.

personification paragraph

WALT: Write a paragraph using personification

The sun came out to play as the soft whistling wind turned into a noisy crowd. The leaves danced on the branches. Waves jumped up and crashed back down into rocks. The shells were rolling around in circles on the sand playing rolly polly. The ships running across the water to other islands carrying people.

Descriptive writing

WALT: Write a descriptive paragraph using imagery.

Today we wrote a paragraph about a earthquake using the five senses. I worked in a pair with Heather.

The earthquake was like a magnet, drawing in buildings and making them collapse onto the floor. Chaotic people shot around in fear, while birds instantly evacuated the area. My nose was filled with dirt and dust from broken cement. As the ground shook I flopped onto the cold floor that I was once standing on. Dogs cried out loudly while tree leaves and branches rustled together aggressively. My hands were trembling by the sight of crazy power lines uncontrollably swaying in the polluted brown sky that once was a shade of baby blue.

Sports camp

A while ago the years 7 and 8's went to sports camp and came back with five trophies. Everyone had fun and came back with good memories.

Personification poem

The beach

The leaves dance on the branches

As the waves clash into each other

The wind running around

As the seaweed dancing for joy

My apple turnover

Today I made a apple turnover. All the other kids had different ideas. I enjoyed making it and it was fun. I hope we do this again.
