Winter Break

With the winter break fast approaching, what are you most excited about? Does your family have any specials plans for the break?

Is it spending time with family and friends, it is just hanging out, or is there something that your family always does during the break.

Please share with your classmates and make sure that you have at least 6 sentences in your response.

Figurative Language

Idioms, palindromes, similes, metaphors, oxymorons,.....etc.  Figurative Language makes what we say and write more descriptive.  What is your favorite figure of speech or type of figurative language?  Why do you enjoy using it?  What would stories be like without figurative language?  If you can think of a new palindrome phrase or riddle, then share it with us.

Make sure your response is at least 6 sentences and you check your grammar and spelling.
