‘ ‘Our Unique Classroom’ - Describing a place

Ask the children to use their five senses to share a description of the classroom, e.g.
the busy room buzzes with children’s excited voices. It smells musty if the windows
are not regularly opened. There are brightly-coloured displays adorning the walls.
The children appreciate the fascinating interactive displays which must be carefully

similes, adjectives and adverbs, abstract nouns, various verbs, etc.
