Ever wondered what's going on inside your teenager's head? Dr. Frances E. Jensen has got some answers.
This short story contains five metaphors which are underlined. After reading the story students will write what they think each metaphor means and support their answer with evidence from the text. Example: What do you think the classroom was a zoo means? I think this means the class was being crazy and loud. I think this because the story says "Most of the students were groaning or complaining loudly." This can be used in a figurative language unit or in isolation.
