Today in class, we talked about similes.  We did an activity where we opened our read-aloud book, picked a sentence that was “dull” and then changed it to include a simile, which made it much more descriptive!

Tonight’s homework:
Pick 5 sentences from a book you are reading.  Then change them to include a simile.  Write your sentences on a piece of lined paper and turn it in tomorrow!

Also, don’t forget to read for 20 minutes and do your Reader Response Journal.  🙂

Stay warm!!
