    Today, you need to collect words and phrases that you can use in your Haiku. Have a look at the pictures and choose 3 polar animals that you would like to write about. Then think of words and phrases to describe those animals. You need to include

    Adjectives – describing words - beautiful

    Similes – something is similar to something else – as blue as the sky, eyes glistening like glitter

    Metaphors – something is something else – the snow IS a white blanket

    Onomatopoeia – words that sound like what they are – Bang, Crash, Drip

    Alliteration – words that start with the same sound – shining, shimmering snow

    Personification  - giving an object a human quality – the table stood waiting to be used.
