Simile Poetry (Class 1-1)

Here is a sample of some students' work, created and presented last Friday.

That day, we were honored to have a very special guest in class, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Alina L. Romanowski.

Students worked very hard, and wrote some very creative and funny simile poems!

Here are 3 of my favorites:

Naju Pears:

Naju pears' size is like the full moon--

They are very big.

Naju pears taste like lemonade

Naju pears are as hard as Charlie's head.

Obama

Obama's power is like a volcano--

They are strong and wide.

Obama smiles like a diamond

Obama is as important as the air.

Starcraft II

Starcraft II is like an Orchestra.

They are super massive, harmonic

It's units fights like fire

The battle scene of it is as real as a reality.

Compliments and Similes

Today the second graders talked about a type of comparison called a simile.

Then, they gave each other compliments using similes. Here are some examples of compliments, from class 2-1:

"His height is as tall as a mountain."

"Your body is as thin as paper."

"Your eyes are as black as seaweed."

"Jessica's head is as small as a bird."

"Seewon studies like a machine."

"Laura is as cute as a puppy"

"His head runs like a computer."

"His tooth shines like a star."

And from class 2-2:

"Charlie's brain is as smart as a computer"

"Charlie's brain flows like a river."

"Dean looks like a lion."

"Kim Tae Hi looks like an angel."

"Ethan's eye is as big as a frog's."

"Ethan's muscle moves like a machine."

"Dong Won is as tall as a tree."
