Abstact Noun Pooem

 LI: To edit our writing using DRAFT 

This week for writing we have been learning about abstarct poems. In writing we have two parts to our task, for the first part of the task we wrote a abstract noun poem in a group, for the second part of our learning we wrote another abstract poem in pairs. Our poem was about beauty. After writing our poemwe needed to proof read our poem. When we proof read our poems we use DRAFT. DRAFT is a acronmy that we use in writing.DRAFT stands for Delete, Rearange, Add, Fix & and Talk. In this poem we also used puncuation, metaphors, similes, the 5 senses, and an abstact noun. The 5 senses are smell, taste, hear, touch - felling & see. I found this task very intersting because learning about types of poem will help me with my writing.

Jealousy

   LI: To write an abstract noun senses poem.

An abstract noun is something that can’t be physically touched, as in a feeling (happiness, fear, love, etc) also the 5 senses. This week, LS2 have been learning about Metaphors and Nouns. We got into groups and were introduced  on what is nouns , what we see in the poem ( The Structure) and the 5 senses. Our group created a Metaphor about happiness; Happiness is the blooming rainbow that shines when the sun comes out after the rain. A Metaphor is a comparison of two things without using ‘like’ or ‘as’. We created our own poem as a group about Jealousy. 

Creative Writing

 LI:  To understand how to use descriptive words to make your writing more interesting.

Our focus for writing this week was to use descriptive writing, which means using words that are powerful, making your text more exciting to read and add more detail into your writing. We were tasked to work collaboratively in pairs to complete this task. 

    our task was to describe one of the two pictures that we were given. To make this task easier we would use our prior knowledge of sentence structures, nouns, verbs, adjectives, and descriptive words to create a piece of writing that uses descriptive words to make the text exciting to read.

I found this activity fun because I love learning and writing about sea creatures.

Cinquain poem

 LI: To write a cinquain poem to describe a sports star.

We have been learning to write cinquain poems to help us strengthen our connections to description. A cinquain poem has 5 lines. Each line has a different purpose. Line 1 is a noun which is a name. Line 2 has 2 adjectives taht describe the noun. Line 3 has 3 verbs that end in ‘ing’ and describe the actions. Line 4 is a noun phrase which is a group of words (not a sentence) that go together to describe the noun. Line 5 is a synonym which is a word with a similar meaning to the noun.

I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to write good things about a sports star.

TEEL Paragraphs

LI: To understand how TEEL paragraphs can help us structure our information and ideas in a paragraph

    

We use paragraphs in our writing to expand on an idea. In LS2 we use the TEEL acronym (title, elaborate, evidence and link) to help us structure our thinking. The example on my DLO shows what the TEEL acronyms stand for and where in the paragraph it shows the TEEL acronyms.

I enjoyed this activity because it was challenging to explain my learning about what a teel paragraph is.
