Royal Wedding Similes

Add a simile as a comment to this post describing something to do with the royal wedding.

Explain how your simile works, what is it doing? Does it create an image in the reader's head? How? Does it add more description? How?

E.g.

The Queen looked as fresh and pretty as a daffodil on a spring day.

My simile compares the queen to a daffodil as this is similar to the colour she was wearing. She also looked fresh and new like a spring day.

Term 1 Reflection

Kia Ora its me Fleur.

Term 1 in room 4 has gone great. I would like to say congrats to our teacher Miss Goldfinch as she is getting married these holidays. On Friday we gave her a surprise shared lunch and she was really pleased by what we had managed and how we managed to keep it a secret as it is quiet hard for some students in our class.

Thanks for reading

Japanese Exchange and mufti day

Kia Ora Koutou. Its Me again Fleur. At Tawa Intermediate We are doing a Japanese Exchange. There are students throughout the school that are providing home stays at their homes. They need to include at least 1 New Zealand Experience for them. Those students today got to go to STAGLANDS as a Thank You for having them. They obviously went with their Japanese Students. On Friday the 25th of march 2011 we had a mufti day to bring in money for the disastrous Japanese Earthquake, so that it could be sent back with the Japanese Students.

New Learning Intention

Hello followers We Are happy to say we have finally a new learning intention! :).

Using our blog 2

Ok, so we are starting to put details about what we have been up to on our blog, thank you to Bailey and Fleur for taking charge of this :)

Now I would like you to think about the layout of our blog.

1. I have changed the goldfinch picture to a huia - should we leave the huia there or put a class photo or even something else?
2. Is there anything we should change about the layout? Do you want/like the counters showing who has visited?
3. Yr 8's last year we put a quote up every couple of weeks. Shall we keep this part or change it for something else?

Please reply to these questions by adding a comment with your name :)
