Play Alliteration Circle

Students sit in a circle
I will start with a noun (e.g. cat, fox)
Each person must give an adjective beginning in the same letter (e.g. curious, funny)
Once someone cannot think of a new adjective, they can start again, suggesting a
new noun

Students back at tables

I will give each student a different sentence starter (e.g. Crazy cats)
They must then create the rest of the sentence using the same beginning letter as
the words in the sentence starter
Using small words such as a the in and to & at within the sentences is allowed
Try to make it as long as you can
Enabler
Those who find it difficult can aim to have a minimum of 5 words with same beginning
letter
A dictionary can be given to those who are struggling
Early Finishers- Extension Activities
Write a list of as many adjectives as you can think of that begin with that same letter
add to your sentence if you can
Closure

Students can share their sentences

Peers can suggest some other words that couldve been used
