Similes poem

My precious possessions belong to me, of course

My puppy Junior is a ball
He loves to roll down the hill

My sister is a clown
a goofy little girl with some humor

My mother and father are love birds 
Well they used to be, before they got 
divorced 

And my friends are the Justice League, 
always solving problems
along the way

A day in life and home of a child in an informal settlement.

Hello everyone, my name is Lilly. How are you doing because I am exhausted. Same old same old. I woke up quit early because I had to go to school, also because there are chickens right outside my house made of steel and scrapes so you could call it a shack. I was so hungry so I went to the very small kitchen to get some food. When I opened the cupboard there was nothing. Not even a crumb of bread. I got dressed in the only clothes I was allowed to wear for school because my family can’t afford school uniform. So I walked to school, hungry. You think that’s bad. Wait until I tell you about my afternoon. So I was at school doing math class. I couldn’t concentrate because I was starving. The classroom was compacted with children. We did English next. We had to share ten textbooks between sixty children. Finally it was break. I was playing with some of my friends and opened my luchbox but there was no food in my lunch box and I was starving so bady but then I had to go to the bathroom.

Hello Everyone My name is Gladys Armstrong. I will be albino about a day I’ll never forget because I was embarrassed on that day.

All the little kids had to go to the big room and sing and the big boys just did exams and sums. That singing inspector was nothing but a big fat bully. Raymond wore a huge knickerbockers and big stockings. His eyes looked like blue gooseberries, golden hair on his head and he had a round red face. Raymond called Benny and Charles they stood at the front of the big room so that they could sing but they didn’t know how to sing one single song. Not even Blue Bells of Scotland or minstrel boy. Raymond pointed his stick to the modelater. In a weak voice Charles said “I can sing pretty Polly” So sing it! Shouted Raymond. Charles and Benny sand. It was terrible singing. Charles sang pretty

Hi everyone Yes, it’s me again. I will be talking about my Grade 5 camp at High Africa. We did so many fun things there at High Africa. Firstly my teacher put us in our cabins. Most of my friends were on the same cabin that I was in. We met all the staff members and they are so kind. Everyone went on a big field and we played many games. I won’t spoil it for you Incase you want to go to High Africa. One of the staff members divided us into groups of five. I was in group two. Also, some of my other friend were in the same group that I was in. Only one of my cabin mates were in the same group as me. Yay for me 😃! My group did a lot of activities but everyone in the whole Grade did the same activities. On the night, everyone made bread. I started of as dough. We placed the dough on the fire outside.
