Patu Mania

This is a Patu Mania of my own I created my own by painting it I did my own pattern and my own shape. We didn't know that the Patu mania even existed, Maori people have these stuff, mostly they have it in traditional dance's I chose this pattern because it looked easy to do and so I gave it a try and it worked out.

Similes and Metaphors

Similes and Metaphors

A simile is where two things are directly compared because they share a common feature. The word AS or LIKE is used to compare the two words. Eg. As cold AS a dog's nose

A metaphor also compares two things, but it does so more directly WITHOUT using as or like. Eg. The shop was a little gold-mine.

Task One

At the end of the sentence, write in brackets whether the sentence is an example of a metaphor or simile.

Eg. The clouds were fluffy like cotton wool. (SIMILE)

1. As slippery as an eel. (SIMILE) ✔
2. Arnie was a man-mountain. (Metaphor) ✔
3. He was a lion in battle. (Metaphor) ✔
4. She is as pretty as a picture. (SIMILE) ✔
5. The striker was a goal machine. (Metaphor) ✔
6. The torch lit up the room as if the sun had risen early. (Metaphor) ✔
7. The moon was a misty shadow. (Metaphor) ✔
8. My friend has a face like a bag of spanners (SIMILE). ✔

Task Two

Now you are going to make up similes of your own by copying and finishing these sentences.

For example:

As good as gold

1. As heavy as a rock. ✔
2. As cold as ice. ✔
3. As hard as table. ✔
4. She had skin like a tiger. ✔
5. As cool as an ice-cream. ✔
6. As quick as cheetah. ✔
7. He was slow like a turtle. ✔
8. Slippery like a seal. ✔

Flying Fungi

This might look like a shell to you but it is called a Bracket Fungi, some people call it Shelf Fungi, they are known as poly pores.

The flying Fungi’s are woody and leathery. There are all kinds of sizes, large sizes, small sizes even medium sizes. They stick on the tree, they’re also on the beach.

Once a tree is infected the fungus cannot be killed. The bracket fungi smells a  bit like mushroom, but mushroom’s are softer than the bracket fungi. The bracket fungi are not plants they belong to living things like mushrooms. The bracket fungi usually grows on tree stumps you would never find bracket fungi on a healthy tree.
