We have written a simile poem based on Egypt and the Egyptian climate. Your work has been photocopied. Please take note of your teacher’s comments and write the poem up in neat on a plain piece of paper. You can also type your poem up on the computer if you wish. This will then be stuck into your topic book as a final piece of work. Think about the presentation of this piece of work, you may want to include a border and an illustration.
