We have been learning about different language features to make our writing more interesting. Some children have made keynotes to use as a teaching resource or an assessment to see if children know what a simile, alliteration, onomatopoeia or metaphor is. Click on each slide to find out.


We went on the Hero Factory website and created our own Super heros. We made up ID cards for each of our heros.

Silly Similes

We have been learning to use rich language to make our writing more interesting to read. We used photo booth to take silly pictures of ourselves and thought of a simile to describe ourselves. Enjoy our movie.

We were inspired by Room 10's descriptive writing. In groups we brainstormed nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs that described our animals. We then looked at language features like similes, alliteration and onomatopoeia that we could use to also describe our animals. We wrote our own descriptions and used comic life to present our work creatively. Please enjoy.
