This short poem describes stopping in the woods on a snowy evening and enjoying the beauty of the snow-covered trees, but realizing that the speaker must continue on to his distant destination. It explores the tension between taking time to appreciate nature's beauty and the obligations that require the speaker to keep traveling. The simple language and imagery create a peaceful yet melancholic tone in observing the winter landscape.

Persuasive and argumentative writing
Persuasive and argumentative writing aims to convince the reader of a particular viewpoint on a debatable topic. Writers take a clear stance and support their position with well-researched evidence and reasoning. The style is assertive but not aggressive, and considers counterarguments in an effort to address alternative perspectives.
Descriptive writing
descriptive writing , narrative writing, sensory details, graphic organizer, figurative language, simile, metaphor, hyperbole, idiom, alliteration and onomatopoeia
Flashcards
This document provides flashcards for characterisation. The flashcards can be used to help develop an understanding of characters in books, movies, or other stories. They provide a concise way to outline key attributes and traits for various characters.
Hyperbole
Hyperbole is exaggeration used for emphasis, humor, or to make a vivid description. It overstates qualities by magnifying them. Examples from literature demonstrate hyperbole's use to describe people as extremely thin or funny, emotions as unbearable pain or lack of brains, and a town as having no money or time spent there as feeling like weeks in a single day. Hyperbole commonly appears in humorous poetry to make a lighthearted point through exaggerated terms.
Personification
This document defines and provides examples of personification. It begins by explaining that personification is a literary device that gives human qualities like feelings and movements to non-living objects. It then provides two examples of personifying inanimate objects like "humanity" and a "garden". The document contrasts a plain, unpersonified sentence with a more vivid and engaging personified sentence that brings the non-living surroundings to life. It concludes by noting that animated movies with animal characters are good examples of personification.
Metaphors
Metaphors are comparisons between two unlike things that do not use "like" or "as". A metaphor states that one thing is another to help readers imagine something in a new way. Effective metaphors bring writing to life by allowing creative descriptions that make abstract ideas more concrete. Using metaphors shows creativity and intelligence, as great thinkers throughout history have recognized metaphors as a sign of genius. The document provides examples of metaphors and encourages readers to employ metaphors in their own writing to make it more vivid and imaginative.
Idioms
An idiom is an expression, word, or phrase that has a figurative meaning understood by native speakers, different from the literal meaning of its individual elements. Idioms don't mean exactly what the words say but rather have hidden meanings. Examples are provided of common idioms like "hot potato," "penny for your thoughts," and "actions speak louder than words." Idioms should be used properly in context and their fixed grammar and vocabulary maintained to preserve their intended meaning.

The document describes various natural phenomena through poetic language. The stars danced playfully as the moon shone overhead. A run down house appeared sad as morning arrived through the meadow.

Rising waters swallowed the earth as a river overflowed its banks, and time passed quickly before it was time to depart.
