WALT use adjectives and similes in our writing.


I am a boy named Thato I live in Africa in a village called Nata I need some shade because it is 42 degrees and there are no trees in my village.  I need water to grow my tree. It is as brown as wood.  I call my brother Junior  to help  me.  He went and got a bucket and we both watered it. It took  5 hours for the tree to start growing and  it was tiring. I felt like my eyes were about to shut and then suddenly I fainted. After that a bit of sweat fell on the tree and it went purple and the leafs started to grow.  It was beautiful, it was as purple as a fresh grape. I wake up and I have lots of shade. Suddenly bushes start to grow I feel awesome because there is shade which will protect me from getting sun burnt.  Next I go back home and rest. I dream about water and food mmmm. I like my house. I wake up and throw off my white sheet it is as white as snow, I feel so warm. The following  day I go back to my tree and play it is fun.      

We know we have done this when: We have painted a picture with our words. Made the reader want to read on. Used more than 4 similes. Used lots of adjectives to make our writing more interesting. Extra things that we need to keep an eye on….. Punctuation. Capital letters and full stops.

WALT use adjectives and similes in our writing

I am a animal my fur is as soft as a pillow. I smell like dust. I have such yellow eyes as my feet stand firm into the hard brown grassy ground. I feel as warm as the sun I am as nervous as going to space I am starting to stretch I hear a click sound as my back and my front legs click. mmmm it feels nice to stretch. I lower down my body and then I bring it up I hear a snap noise broom I start to run. I speed past the other cheetahs and panthers I start to turn into a human bean. I came so far I ran from London to RIO. I  couldn't believe my eyes I saw the big statue. I finally went to the opening ceremony then   I see red fireworks and blue ones to. I see other people there I hear a beeping sound. I am just about to turn into a panther again so I drink water. and it went away I finish my race and I won a shiny gold medal. I went back home and Practised for the next Olympics I ran 100 kilometers to tokyo. where the next Olympics is gone  be held and I was as tired as a new born baby. I sleep for twenty hours I was in such a relief I dream about an elephant chasing me I was scared but it was a dream I start to feel sick but I just leave it  THE END.

walt use videos to make it better

I am a ball boy looking at Ronaldo I wish I was him. Suddenly the crowd screamed goal.
He crossed it and bom!!!!! He crashed into me. I turned in to Ronaldo and he turned into me. I felt so cool. I get home and wake up it wasn't a dream it was real. I got out of my white king sized bed and looked out of the window, aaaaaaaaaaaaah. I looked in the mirror and lifted my top and there were some  abs, my dream came true ahhh yes. I hop in my pagani and I crash. I get into the stadium and I see people cheering. I park my car and get out  and I walk into the stadium.
After that I do some training and I can't do around the world. I see my coach he said Ronaldo you ok? I said yes. Finally  the game is starting and  I walk into the hallway. I see  a person with my awesome orange and black  sock  boots. I look at him and grin. Then  I walk into the stadium and I start the game the ball comes to me. I hit it with my back and turn, I skill another player I Ronaldo chop a player and Rabona to Gomess he strikes it with his left foot and it gets into the back of the net, he celebrates. The ball is coming Lee and Ronaldo crash and get their body's back. I feel good to be in the real body aaaahhh. I am in such a relief, I like my own body. I went to sleep and feel in a deep one but I smelled an egg cooking. I rushed to the kitchen my dog cooked me a egg, I was dreaming. I went for a swim in my 1000000 meter deep pool and then I went to the cold weight room. I lifted some weights and pulled a muscle. I could not play for 5 weeks!!! Meanwhile Messi was smashing my team 4-1 here 7-5 there. I went in for 47 minutes and pulled a hamstring and I went back to my awesome silver manchen and slept. Again it felt like a relief, my dog said hey i'm tired and slept on my bed and in my white blankets. From that day I will never cross again, never ever I will take corners, but not cross with the shyne white ball that is nike. My last touch to the ball, boom I am retired of old age I loved my corea the end.
