Stay-tuned for the 2009-10 Clucky Challenge!

   Throughout the rest of the year you will find challenging activities on the main page of this site, which will be designed to help you to better understand literary devices. Our class mascot, Clucky the Chicken, will be part of the activities from time-to-time!

   Which sentence contains a simile? Which sentence contains alliteration? E-mail the answers to Mr. Murphy with the words "Clucky Two" in the subject box for a prize chip back at school!  Good luck!

1.)  Corey skated like a Nascar driver on his skateboard.

2.)  Brooke M. always asks good questions in school.
