Photography - Electives - 2010

As promised, here is the presentation the photography team showed on our celebration day!

My Best-Loved Bear

My Best-Loved Bear

We read a book called "My Best-Loved Bear" which is about a bear so loved that it is worn and tatty. Room 16 thought it would be a neat idea for us all to bring our my loved bear to share with each other.

After a bunch of sharing we decided to write about our bears. I set the class the mission of:

- use descriptive words (adjectives)
- use a simile
- try to use at least two different conjunctions
- remember to use capital letters and full stops.


My teddy is as bright as a banana cake cake. Her name is Berry and I like Berry because she always keeps me in company and she is old as my big sister. Her eyes are like gold with sparkles. Her scarf is pink as a pink. She is special because she always sleeps with me.

- scared
- sense of achievement
- worried
- proud
- excited
- buzzed

were all words we described the feeling as.
