W.A.L.T.- Use our senses to help describe in our writing S.C. Today we did a senses feel about a food SEE- The marshmallow is like snow on a rugged mountain SMELL- The marshmallow smelled like the candyland place in hamltion when they were making loillipops that looked like a white rose TOUCH- it feels like sand paper after sanding a metal rod to its smothe state TASTE-it tasted like a mergan coated in a sugary flossing

//Metaphors// are a way to compare to by saying that one thing is another thing. For example, we say somebody is a //fool//. In the past in Europe, a fool was a person who entertained the king or queen by doing silly things. The fool was a kind of clown. He often did crazy or stupid things to make people laugh. So when we call somebody a fool we really mean that he or she is doing something silly or stupid. We don’t really mean that they are somebody who entertains the king or queen. We are using a metaphor. What do we mean when we say these things: When we //say someone is a pig// we really mean that __they are messy eaters √__ __When we //call someone an angel// we really mean that they very good people √__ If we //say someone is a giant// we really mean that_they are very tall √ When //we call a man an ogre or a woman a witch// we really mean they are bad people that believe in √ __When somebody plays cards and //we call them a shark//, we really mean that__ _ they cheat by looking at the cards x If we say that //somebody is a volcano ready to explode//, we really mean that___ they are very angry √__ __When we say somebody is //bright// we mean that they are very smart. √__

Metaphors are imaginative ways to describe something by comparing that thing to something else. For example, if I wanted to say that Dan is tall, I could say that //Dan is a giant//. Use a metaphor to describe somebody who is: tall - zack is tall√ kind - josh is kind√ fast - dallas is very fast√ slow - alex is very slow√ smart - dave is very smart√ fat - korban is very fat√ sneaky - tyce is very sneaky√ angry - sam is very angry √ beautiful - a flower is very beautiful √ ugly - a snake is very ugly √ stubborn - short thin silly scare easily He is a giant. She is an angel.
