Wacky Hair & Pajama Day!

Over the next two weeks, we are learning about measurement. Today we had a talk about why we need to learn how to measure things. Here is what we came up with:

Writing about Winter

We have been learning how to add language features to our writing to make it sound more interesting. We know how to use similes, alliteration and onomatopoeia. We have been writing about winter. Check out what Angus and Ollie wrote today!

Everything is white and cold in winter.  Only on the hills its like the clouds are falling from the sky. And I think I’m an ice cube when I first step outside because... it is freezing in the winter, yes it is freezing in the winter.  It is so cold that when we step into the snow all that I  can hear is a slurp slurp slurp.

Winter is a place where the ground is covered in a white blanket.  “So cold, so cold!” people say. Everyone has got their fire going or their heater.  Everywhere people are wearing gumboots and people are staying in bed.  No one wants to hop out of bed. So when it is winer you’d better get warm.
