Similes and Metaphors!

Room 14 has been learning about similes and metaphors during writing time.

Simile- A describing sentence that can use "like" or "as" .
Metaphor- A describing sentence that is unable to use "like" or "as"

We were given a few words to choose from and then we had to write a simile sentence and a metaphor sentence. Here is one example from Rosie... Metaphors are hard so we'll put up more when we get the hang of it.

Friday Fun!

Most weeks on Friday instead of challenging P.E we have something called Friday Fun. To get Friday Fun we have to work hard in class and be on our best behaviour. Usually we do Dodgeball but sometimes people prefer Neatball or Basket ball instead of Dodgeball. Mr. O 'C' enjoys big hits especially the photos we get to capture such as Michael getting his face smashed with a ball. No pain no Game!
