Figurative Language Study

In Huia 2 we have been studying figurative language. Figurative language is putting together parts of language that make our writing more effective. Mrs Irwin chose a book called Storm Boy written by Colin Thiele to study. Firts of all she read this book to us which gave us a good understanding about the story. We were set some tasks which we completed in our books showing that we could recognize the figurative language usage on some pages. We now have learned a lot about figurative language and ways we can use it ourselves to make our own writing more effective . Now we are learning about explanation in descriptive writing and we shall try to use figurative language in these.
