Figurative Language

This week we did figurative language week.

The first one we did was simile a simile is comparison of two things using ''like or ''as

The second one was we was hyperbole. Hyperbole is  exaggerating to show strong feeling and effect.

A metaphor  is  two things that are compared without using ''like or ''as.

Personification is giving humans traits to objects or idea.

 The last one we did was understatement.  

L.I: Figurative language.  

Swimming

Today I went to the lagoon pool I also learnt some new skills.

The first thing I learnt was to get in the pool the safety way.

The next skill I practised was gliding. To glide I had to push off the platform so I can kick my legs and I can move.

Then I practice rotation kicking.  I pushed and kicked my legs, then I rolled my whole body so I can go on to my back.

After we played a game. We had to dive down and grab a toy and take it back to James and that taught me how to dive.

I got better at gliding and rotation kicking.


L.I: develop knowledge of water safety.
