Dear Parents Greetings !!!!!

1. Copy the following passage in your Language E.E Notebook and colour- Similes in blue, Sight words in red, smell in yellow, hearing in green, touch in purple and taste in orange. Then, ask yourself- Are they happy (positive) or sad (negative) words?
I came downstairs still wearing my pajamas and saw a bunch of magazines on the rug by  the couch, toppled over from their usual stack on the coffee table. Then I saw the bad mess in  the kitchen. The jars with Miranda’s baking supplies are usually lined up along the counter, but  one of them was on the floor in pieces, and there was flour everywhere. The stench of the broken eggs cannot be ignored along with the strong smell of toast burning somewhere near. There was a click sound and the door opened. Dad was standing in  the middle of it, wearing a suit: shiny black shoes, pressed work pants and shirt resembling the colour of sky on a clear summer day; his hair still wet from the shower. Dad turned around and got some bread and butter, and honey. The toaster sounded like it hurt when he pushed the lever down. It was old and never made the toast right. I could still feel the pungent taste of the toast I had last night along with some smooth scrambled eggs.
2. Similes: As Fast As a Horse
| We use similes to describe things by comparing them to other things. For example, if I want to say someone is fast, I can say she is as fast as a horse.Here are some examples of similes: |
She’s as fast as a horse.
He’s as strong as an elephant.
She’s as silly as a monkey.
