Today we read a description of a Great Hall in an old castle. We found all the adjectives, similes, sights, sounds and smells that the writer used. We also found some clever metaphors. For example, the writer described a rat with peppercorn eyes. That is like saying that the rat's eyes were peppercorns.
After that we began work on a story plan about a frightening house. Tomorrow we will complete our plan and begin our story. We will use techniques to make our stories effective, without writing about silly things like ghosts, vampires or zombies.
