The Simile in "The Veldt"

We continued reading "The Veldt" today, noting Ray Bradbury's use of the simile throughout.  We listed examples from the story on the board, and talked about what made these similes effective at creating mood.

Students were asked to finish the story for homework, and to fill out the worksheet on figurative language with any other examples of similes found in the last part of the story.  Please bring this completed worksheet to class next day.
