Writing

- On Monday, we wrote alliteration poems about a topic of our choice. Alliteration is when you have the same sounds at the beginning of a word.
- On Tuesday, we wrote metaphors. This is when you compare things without using like or as.
- On Thursday, we learned how to write our own shape poems. Shape poems are poems but shaped into a figure.
- On Friday, we wrote a 6-room image point about a special place to us. We described the sounds we hear, the light we see and questions we have for this place.
