Bad Jelly stories
We have been learning to use similes. These are our Bad Jelly character descriptions using similes. We had to keep them short, use at least 2 similes and add adjectives. How well did we do?
Mudwiggle is as strong as the Hulk. His muscles are as small as an ant. He wears a stripy top and has a hat with a light on the top. Mudwiggle likes to roll in mud. He likes to lift weights and he likes helping people. I chose Mudwiggle because he is strong.
By CM
Mudwiggle is a worm that is as strong as a brick. Mudwiggle is as small as a bumblebee. Mudwiggle wears a rainbow top. Mudwiggle is as long as a handle. He has big bright hazel eyes. Mudwiggle has a funny red hat. He has two arms which are as small and skinny. Mudwiggle is strong and funny and wears a big t-shirt. Mudwiggle can hold people up on his finger and spin like a spinner. I chose Mudwiggle because in the book he was described a lot. The special thing is he can save people.

Fluffy Bums tail is as fluffy as some bed fluff. He has green breath taking eyes. Fluffy Bum smile is as delightful as a freshly made snowman.
Fluffy bum is as soft as a baby’s skin and is as supportive as a screaming fan. He is as playful as a crazy kid but is as careful as the tooth fairy. He is as funny as a circus clown. He likes to play with toy mice.

Dulboot the Giant is as cruel as the Punisher. Dulboot is like no other animal or human. He is as scary as a 1 million tarantulas suddenly coming out of the ground. Dulboots ears are as big as elephant ears. Dulboot is a very mean, ugly, unfair giant that is as tall as a skyscraper and as unpleasant as a person who spits all the time. Dulboot likes to help Bad Jelly roast her sausages. Dulboot is special because he has eyes all around his head.

Dulboot the horrible giant wears a heavy green singlet and a huge pair of pants as black as the night sky and a whip lash belt with a buckle made of kids bones. He has short lanky purple hair, which sticks up like spikes on the end of pitchfork. He has 25 eyes around his head and they are stare at you like a snake stares at its prey. He has long stubble on his chin. He is an evil non-happy spoilsport and is utterly unreliable.
He likes to eat cows and spy on the villagers near by. He is pro at kickboxing and cow talking.

Happy holidays!
Hello everyone,
I hope you all are having a great holiday and not too many of you have been sick! Mrs Waterland has been very sick :( but is feeling a lot better now.
I am going to put on a few You Tube items - one is for fun (I wonder if you can work out which one it is and if you can do the dance to show in class??) The other two items are for our unit around Persuasive writing - Arguments. Have a look at them and see if you can work out what they are trying to persuade you to do? If you can leave a comment - remember to do it just like at school, but hitting the comment button and leaving it as anno. I will get the email and will post it for you.
Looking forward to next week. Enjoy the rest of your holidays - have a good break and be ready to share when you get back. Think about your passion - what are your really passionate about? (I think you would probably say for Mrs Waterland it would be biking/running and her class of course!)
Mrs Waterland
