MORE ALLITERATION

Jacob brought in his book

ANIMALIA

by Graeme Base.

He had read it many times,

but had never known before

this week, that it was written

using ALLITERATION.

We liked the 'r' page.

Richly robed rhinocerouses

riding ricketty rickshaws.

Be like Jacob, 1M. Be on the 'lookout' for 'ALLITERATION' as you are reading and if you find it being used, bring in the book to share.

SPOTLIGHT ON MAX!

An '8' poem sent in by MAX last night.

'8' is round,
'8' is cool,
'8' is what I learnt at school!
