My Simile Poem And Metaphor

Image
Hello everyone, today I'm going to be blogging about my simile poem. I did a simile for a school project. I was inspired by my dog that had died the day before . And I thought I needed something to remember him by . My dogs name was max he was a very special dog i only got him in march last year 2018 . He was a little spark of happiness and joy. My poem describes him and his behavior. My metaphor is about lightning I wanted to use something that would be easy to write about turns out its not that easy trying to find words that lightning is like is really hard but it was a very fun metaphor to work on .

When I wake up for the start of the day I don’t even feel like getting up from my bed. It rained last night I was freezing and cold I hardly slept. I was squished in my bed because me and my sister share one . My family only has two bed’s it’s really uncomfortable. I got up from my bed I was starving but there was only a small piece of bread to eat. When I go to school I don’t even get lunch . After I was done with my little bit of bread I got dressed I new I had to be quick because I didn’t want to be late for school again . Once I was done getting ready I started walking to school I always take the long route. When I walk there’s always a lot of discussing rubbish and even smalls.

I got in class and I had to sit on a bin as always it’s really uncomfortable.When we started work I ha

The singing inspector

Gladys One day I came to school with the news there was a singing inspector coming today. We were called for singing class later on in the day.When we went in I was slightly scared but when I saw the inspector I was terrified.He told us to sit down . He called up Benny and Charles. They could only sing pretty Polly and he shouted at them then I felt like if I go and sing .Nothing would come out of my mouth. If I was called up I was going to freeze because I was so nervous. When he called me up I felt nervous and scared . I was even more scared when me and iris did not say a thing. I was relieved when my turn was over. The singing inspector said we were not to sing again. From that day on me and iris’s had to sit with the big boys and the little kids . That didn’t go for singing. But I have to admit I’m glad I’m not going to sing for him again. The End

A New Year Of Grade 5

                                                    A New Year Of Grade 5 we started school 7 weeks ago so far I have had the best year ever . Some subjects have changed and there is also a new teacher . The one subject that is different is our tech teacher and our coding teachers have know joined there subjects and its very different but still fun. Our art teacher has left and know there is a new one she is very calm and kind I love her. My grade 5 teacher is the best he lets us swim in the school pool  and we get extra camp at the end of the year .I think grade 5 is going to be the best year ever. Anyone that has my teacher Mr R is going to be very lucky because he is the best grade 5 teacher.
