In Grade 4 English lessons, the students have been writing similes. A simile is a type of figurative language that describes something by comparing it to something else with the words like or as. Similes help create a mental picture of what the writer is describing, e.g. Mr Daniel is as brave as a lion. We will be writing these in our Fantasy stories that we have started writing this week See below where we have shared a couple of the opening paragraphs from 4B, and we cannot wait to read the rest!
It was a beautiful morning, until the King heard shrieks and shouting. He ran to the Great Hall and he was terrified at what he saw, blood dripping from the walls like water He screamed in terror! The bravest warriors in the Kingdom are dead!
“He’s alive, the monster is alive!” cried the King. The King always thought that the monster Credualar was dead. However, after he saw the blood, he realized the creature Credular was alive. Yet now he knew Credular was alive.
