Dancing is Like Victory: Similes at Avondale Logandale Elementary

This week the 4th graders and I worked on comparisons… why wouldn’t you say the wall is like the wall? Well, they are exactly the same thing! Similes make our brains pop by finding similarities between different things. The 4th graders came up with a lot of cool ideas which you can read below:

4th Grade

Anthony D. by Leslie C.

A blueberry is like the bright sky
A feather is like a tickle machine
A bird sound is like a radio
The color yellow is like the bright sun
The library is like a sleeping baby
A fan is like a big storm
A stick is like a skinny person

A rainbow is like every color of crayon
The star are like a shining light
A crunching thing is like hard rocks
A tree is like a singing bird
Cereal is like oatmeal
The schools is like the Sears Tower
Dancing like a victory
Wood is like bricks

4th Grade

FIFA 17 by Roberto V.

I’m red like a strawberry
I’m tall like the teacher
I am quiet like a paper
The teacher’s shirt is like a tomato
I’m white like the clouds

Maya F. by Daisy Q.

A blanket is like a fur
The sea is like the water we drink
A paper is like a leaf

4th Grade

Alexis by Jonathan C.

My lips are like a smooth paper
My dad is like a gorilla
A diamond is like a glass of water
A funny face is like a clown making faces
The sky is like a blueberry

Untitled by Irving C.

A cats purr is like a thunder growling
The yellow light is like the sunflower’s color
The milk color is like the cloud color
