Roberto was on-time for this class. We completed the daily Wordle and then worked through and created sentences for List 3 of the Similes. These included - as cunning as a fox, as dead as a doornail, as deaf as a post, as different as chalk from cheese, as dry as a bone, as dry as dust, as dull as dishwater, as easy as A.B.C and as flat as a pancake. We then tried ti integrate the 3 lists of similes to answer questions, but Roberto found this very difficult.
