Tomorrow When The War Began

Made with Padlet

READING THE NOVEL

CHARACTER PROFILE FRAMEWORK

In the first chapter we get to meet all the main characters and learn about where the novel takes place.

​ For each character create a page in your books to record details of them and their lives. Divide the page up like this..

As we read we will stop and add information to these profiles.


WEEK FOUR

 ANSWERING QUESTIONS - mini task

Click HERE to print off worksheet on how to answer questions in full sentences

CHAPTER TWO and CHAPTER THREE

Chapter two revolves around the main characters finding their way into Hell and describing the landscapes around them.   

Marsden uses lots of decriptive language to describe the places - he particulary uses similes and metaphors
Have a read over the lines below  and in your books write down the quote and if you think they are a simile or metaphor. Then write 2 similes and 2 metaphors of your own
  1. "The water looked as blue as royal blood; deep and dark and still. "
  2. "..a sharp straight ridge, bare black rocks forming a thin line as though a surgeon had made a giant incision centuries ago. "
  3. "..the lazy Wirrawee River curving slowly through it. "
  4. "Satan’s Steps are huge granite blocks that look like they were chucked there in random descending order by some drunken giant, back in the Stone Age."
  5. Your simile
  6. Your simile
  7. Your metaphor
  8. Your metaphor
Simile : When something is LIKE or has similar qualities to something else - Key words : LIKE, AS, AS THOUGH
   eg She crawled along the ground like a snake.   She was as silent as a mouse
​

Metaphor : When something IS something else 
   eg She is a snake on the ground.   She was a mouse

 DESCRIPTIVE WRITING

Write a descriptive piece that describes a place that you enjoy going to or are familiar with.  It doesn't have to be a place in nature - it can be a bedroom, sports ground or friends house.  Consider why you like it, the sight, sound, touch, taste, smell of the place. You will need to include at least one simile or metaphor in your description. 250 words

I will be marking:
  • Ability to write descriptive text 
  • Spelling and Grammar ( including sentence structure, punctuation, capital letters etc ) 
  • Use of metaphor and/simile

I dont want a recount of what you do there, but a description of what the place is.
