Alliteration is when a consonant sound is repeated over and over.
E.g The time ticked tediously by. The warm wind wafted across the window.
Highlight the alliterations in each of the following sentences:
- The sun sizzled the swimmers' skin.
- I accidentally ate an awful apple.
- Beth borrowed Barry’s books before biology.
- Slipping and sliding, I stumbled in the snow and slush.
- Many mysterious men mumbled messages.
- The gallant goat gobbled gobs of garbage greedily.
- The rapidly rising river rushed rampantly.
Finish these sentences with your own alliterations:
- Red roses ran along the radiant ray of the sun.
- While wandering we walked wearily.
- The tired traveller took a taste of the strong tamarind.
-What have I learnt? I learnt that Alliteration is used by repeating the first letters.
-How does this work show my learning? This work shows me learning by creating my own alliterations, therefore, understanding it better.
-What am I wondering? I'm wondering if alliterations are related to the red, white and blue kind of sentence structure.
