Descriptive Writing AND Argumentation Writing

This week in our class we have been learning to add the wow factor to our writing using descriptive writing techniques and language features like similes, onomatopaeia, personifcation, adverbs and hyperbole. Hope you enjoy our writing. If you would like to read more descriptive writing examples from our class then please visit our individual blogs that can be accessed from the left hand side of this blog.

 

 

We also do argumentation writing every week. This week's topic we debated and shared our opinion on was- Should Snakes Be Domesticated? We read online articles, watch videos, read books and also have a debate in class with our peers and then write our opinion on the topic. Hope you enjoy reading our opinions.
