For writing the seniors have been focusing on Figurative Language, for this activity we had to focus on one type of figurative language for the day. Monday was Metaphors. We had to write a metaphor based on different emotions. In my opinion this task was really helpful to me because I now understand the difference between metaphors and similies. Check out my work!
Activity #1: Write a metaphor for each of the following describing words
| Words | Your Metaphor |
| Strong | He was king kong with his buffness |

| Scared | She froze in her footsteps |
