Alliterations

For the past month we have been studying various forms of figurative language. Figurative language is when you use exaggerations to describe how you are feeling. One form of figurative language uses alliteration. Alliteration is when you use the same beginning sound throughout the entire sentence. Think of them like tongue twisters! An example is: Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. As you can see Peter, Piper, picked, peck, pickled, and peppers all start with the /p/ sound.

The students in room 20 were asked to create alliterations and draw a picture. Here is some of our best work.
