SIMILES AND FEELINGS

Lesson in brief: Students will explore anger using similes.

1. Ask the students to name the following:
three machines or appliances (e.g., television, car, computer)
two things found in nature (e.g., birds, rock)
one activity people like to do that ends in ing (e.g., swimming)
2. Record their responses on chart paper.
3. Beginning with the first machine, ask “Anger is like a _____________ because ______________.”
