Onomatopoeia

Today, Friday, we learned about sound words, or onomatopoeia.  Everyone really enjoyed using onomatopoeia to grab the reader's attention.  We also tried to describe in detail.

Here are some of the sound words we enjoyed using in our writing:

Moo! Moo!    Baa! Baa!    Swishhh!  Swishhh!    Boo! Boo!      Chuga Chuga    Wuff! Wuff!

Thump!    Gurgle!    Meow    Bang!    Clang!     Whoooo!      Oink!     Shush!

    Woosh!  The wind blew in my face.  Splish, splash, as I jumped into the water.  The water wet my clothes as I went back on the concrete.  I slipped and I scraped my chin and I was crying.

Coby

Drip, drop went the rain on my car as I went to the school bus.

Mere

A dog was running after the cat.  “Go away.”

Meow! Meow! Meow!

"Go away,” said the man  "Thank you, I didn't like that dog"
     Meow!

Atutahi

Boom!  Boom!  As tears dropped to the ground.  But they were happy tears.

MacKenzie

Meow!  Meow!  went Tinker.

Shing!  Shing! goes a blade getting sharpened.
