Metaphor Activities

Another task we were required to do were Metaphors. Metaphors are ‘a figure of speech in a word or phrase applied to an object or action to which it is not literal’. For the first part we had to write a metaphor for each of the describing words in the list, using our own ideas on how to describe the word. For the second part of the activity we had to guess the answer for the metaphor riddles, They were quite easy to get in my opinion.

Hyperbole Activities

One of our Writing activities were about Hyperbole sentences, hyperbole are exaggerated statements or sayings that are not meant to be taken literally.

We had to find the meanings of the hyperbole sentences and write it in our own words, then we were required to make up our own statement at the end which I did ‘She never stops talking’, can you explain what it means?

 

IXL – Math

For my maths today I had to complete an IXL task. This task was to identify the volume of cubes and rectangular prisms, For this IXL question it was asking for the value of u.

To find the value you have to know your times tables (You have to times the width by the length and then times the number you recieved by the height 4x4x4 etc.) The answer for this question would have been 6 because 6x6x6= 216!
