This week in primary four we have been learning all about onomatopoeia and how to use it. We did a variety of activities to find different examples of onomatopoeia in writing and within poems. We especially enjoyed looking through the poem ‘The Washing Machine’ where there were lots of examples and some made up!

We then had the opportunity to make up our own examples of onomatopoeia and share them with our partners. This was a fun activity and we cannot wait to practice more!

Also in class we have been logging onto our Glow accounts to research different Victorian inventors. Logging onto glow we were able to go onto our class page and use the links that were suggested in our class conversation. This gave us a short cut to the websites! We will be using our glow accounts more often and will keep you updated on how we are getting on.
