Personification & Tongue Twisters

Last week we learned about the literary skilled called "personification" where objects or animals are given human-like qualities. We read books that use personification, and talked about examples in movies as well. The students wrote their own phrases or poems using this technique.  We also learned about tongue twisters, which are poems that are hard to say- often because they use alliteration or words with similar vowel patterns.  These were especially fun for the children to test out!
