Dear Students, we are down to our last two weeks before we come back to school. Let's make these last two weeks really count! The way we do that is: eat properly, sleep on time and wake up on time, exercise daily, finish our off-track packets and do all of the blogs. You will still have a lot of time left over to do fun things.
Today's blog has to do with analogies.
Analogy is a noun, and it means "a comparison". When two words are analogous, that means that they have a relationship.
Example: Food: eat What do we do to the food? we eat it? Then… if the word is water, the next word should be drink.
The analogy would look like this:
food: eat :: water: drink
Here is another example:
book: read :: television : watch
Please find the analogies:
1) mittens: hands :: socks : _______
2) house : live :: car : ________
3) pen: ink :: pencil : ________
4) lemon : sour :: orange : __________
5) water : clear :: milk : __________
6) __________ : big :: ant : small
7) __________ : smile :: sad : frown
8) __________ : green :: sky : blue
