6 White- Working in a Winter Wonderland

Everyone woke up this morning to a blanket of snow covering the ground.

    I enjoyed this unit because we played in the snow (although Absi pushed me in snow!) besides that, some of the vocabulary I’ve learnt are:
    Similie:
    The snow covered the ground like a cozy blanket
    Metaphor:
    The frost on the window are like crystal tingling.
    Personification:
    There were a herd of elephants dancing in the snow.

    I had a lot of fun in this lesson and learned a lot of vocab for snow and our unit. I had sentences like:
    shadows leaving footsteps as you walk.
    children playing in coldly white snow.
    Children stepping in white snow making their legs go deep.

  13. Laughter spread across the pitch.
    Footsteps following you endlessly.
    A herd of elephants roamed across the weather pitch.
    The snow was as soft as a pillow.
