Kauri have been learning to use similes in their writing. A simile compares two things using 'like' or 'as'. Here is the simile poem about our class. As you can tell, we have a sense of humour.

Kauri is as ….
Quick as a sloth
Slow as a tortoise
Large as a fully grown rhino
Happy as a maniac
Nice as Santa
Weak as a pencil
Strong as a baby
Loud as a room filled with elephants
Quiet as a thunderstorm
Brave as a soldier
Wild as a tiger
Lazy as a cat in the sun
Busy as a rat
Put it all together and you’ve got Kauri class!

    Hi there, my name is Mrs Idle and I am a teacher in room 5 at Awahono School. I really like your class simile poem because it gives me a great picture of what Kauri class is like. "Loud as a room filled with elephants" is a a powerful image. Have you thought about adding some art to enhance your poem?
