The power of words

Today in Room 4 Literacy we have been discussing the power of our words. We considered that words are the buiding blocks of language; we cannot write a thing without them! We know that we can make our writing more effective when we use our words precisely.


Then we made a word wall of our favourite words - we called them juicy or sticky words, because we like the way they look, sound and the meaning behind them.


After making a class poster that was filled with different sticky words (cheers school kit for this!), we were given objects and we had to think of words that went with them.



What words could you think of that relate to this tiny ship in a bottle?


What words could you think of that relate to this compass?

    I like the way you have put a lot of information in this blog post.
    Maybe Next time you could make the writing a bit bigger so we can read it more easily.
    What was your favourite Object? Mine was the little boat in the jar
