This term we have been doing poetry writing. We have written Cinquain poems. Haiku Poems and Triangular Triplets. I wrote a very good Cinquain poem, about blue. I was at Extended Abstract by the time I finished writing "blue". I wrote "blue" a first time, but I was only at Multistructural, so I wanted to do better. I wrote it a second time, changing my choice of adjectives. I was really overjoyed when I wrote it. Then we started learning about adjectives. We did a circle map about what we knew about similes. I rated myself at extended abstract. My Mrs M said that I was really at Relational because I needed to still show new thinking or knowledge. We had to write a reflective sentence and this is what I wrote: I think I am here because I gave a few examples and I had reflected on where I had used them. A week later we had to do another circle map. I again rated myself at extended abstract. For my reflective sentence this time I wrote: I think that I am here because I have said the general things about similes, given 4 examples, reflected on where I had used them in my own writing and said how they could be used in other ways to colour writing. I am proud of myself for getting to here. On Monday we started learning about metaphors.
