Poetry

Similes 

I really enjoyed writing this simerly poem because I like learning about figures of speech so I can expand my vocabulary. Both of these poems were inspired by nature, I reaserched pictures of nature and these two came up along with other beautiful pictures but I chose these.


 Metaphor

My Dreadful Day at School

We have the hottest class but we are very privileged to have a pool at the school that we swim in every Wednesday and sometimes on Fridays if it is really hot.
