WRITING PROMPT - Week 7 Term 4

You no longer publish on our Kids Blog site, instead I have created a page for you on this site to publish your work on - just add a comment under your name to do so.
Remember to head up your comment with the Week and Term followed by a title.

This week you are to make up a story which includes ONE of the following metaphors....  (a metaphor says something is something else)

  • Their home was a prison. 
  • The slide on the playground was a hot stove.
  • Time is money.
  • Tom’s eyes were ice.
  • The detective’s face was wood as he listened to her story.

  • Please make the metaphor, you choose, be in bold so that we can easily see which one you selected.
