Blog Comments
W.A.L.T analyse our comments
Over the past week we have been learning how to comment on other people's blogs and how to do them. We have to follow the PTH which means positive, thoughtful and helpful.
I find it really helpful for young bloggers and people who may not know how to blog. It helps others out a lot and can inspire other people to leave comments. It is an easy structure to follow.
I need to work on putting more words into each comment and need to make sure I add more questions to the blog.
How can I do better? What do you think?

W.A.L.T: retell one of the Maori legends.
Pentecost
Pentecost
the Christian festival celebrating the descent of the Holy Spirit on the disciples of Jesus after his Ascension, held on the seventh Sunday after Easter.
Why do people celebrate pentecost?
The festival of Pentecost commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ while they were in Jerusalem celebrating the Feast of Weeks. In the Christian tradition, this event represents the birth of the early church.
Metaphor
METAPHOR
A metaphor is a figure of speech that is used to make a comparison between two things that aren't alike but do have something in common. Unlike a simile, where two things are compared directly using like or as, a metaphor's comparison is more indirect, usually made by stating something is something else.
Here is some examples
1:“throw the baby out with the bathwater
2:life is a box of chocolates
3: Life was a roller coaster
4:its raining tacos
5:My head was fake
6.Hes as Smart as a computer.

Personification
Personification
Personification is the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.
Example: As the leaf diving off the branch of a tree.
The purpose of this figurative language is to bring inanimate things to life to better explain them. Writers often use personification to make their writing more vivid and to have the reader understand the object or animal in a better way.
Here are 5 good examples of personification
1.Lightning danced across the sky.
2.The wind howled in the night.
3.The car complained as the key was roughly turned in its ignition.
4.Jackson heard the last piece of pie calling his name.
5.My alarm clock yells at me to get out of bed every morning.
