SNOWDROP
A snowdrop is a spring flower. It is one of the first flowers to grow in spring. Snowdrops are tiny, white flowers. They look like small bells. They have a lovely smell.
Can you find a description using "look (s) like" in this reading?
"They look like small bells."
This sentence compares the flowers to bells. Maybe you have never seen a snowdrop, but you have seen a bell. Now you know the shape of a snowdrop!
You can use the words "look (s) like" to
compare two things.
e.g. Jane looks like her mother.
e.g. The moon looks like a football.
In countries with four seasons, spring is a happy season.
Read the following dialogue:
Teacher - Why are you so happy, Mary ?
Mary - Spring is my favorite time of year! It brings the end of winter. Snow melts. The sun shines. The air warms. Flowers bloom. I don't want to study. I just want to be in the sun!
Teacher - My goodness! You have "Spring Fever!"
Notes: season: different times of the year based on weather changes.
melt: to become liquid (snow melts and becomes water!)
bloom: to grow flowers:
spring fever: a lazy, happy feeling that comes with warm weather.
