By: Wendy Ewalds

 

Think about what your best feature is. Are your eyes, nose, legs, mouth, arms or even your ears

the best part of you?

 

 

• Describe in at least five sentences/lines(poem) the "Best Part of You".
• Include supporting details that include a description of your best feature, what your best feature helps you do, and what life would be like without your best feature.
• Make sure your description shows your uniqueness - a special talent, a favourite hobby or a funny quirk. 
• Word choice is important. Add descriptive, interesting adjectives. (Hint: Use a thesaurus.. nice, big, small, pretty, cute are dead!)
• Include a simile
• Be creative...think outside the photo!
