More Personification poetry

Today the Grade 4 students continued their work writing Personification poems.

They selected words that were a lot more difficult and used dictionaries, thesaurus's and iPads to gather definitions, synonyms and antonyms. They gained a good understanding of their chosen words and wrote fabulous poems.

The students will work in groups creating movies showing their poems tomorrow.
