“School is like a Zoo”

Provide four examples, a topic sentence, and two compound sentences.
If you really think about it, school is like a zoo. Classrooms are like
big cages to keep students in place, and desks are like zoo park benches.
The lunch line in the cafeteria is as long as the ice cream line at the zoo,
but at least the zoo has soda and cotton candy, my favorite. Some teachers
are like lemurs, that talk real fast and make loud sounds, while other
teachers are old and wrinkled like elephants. My favorite part of the zoo is
watching the rhinos, who like to roll around in the mud, just like football
players. Lastly, at the end of the day, the school bus takes us back home,
just like a day at the zoo. Just add a few more trees, and a big snake, and I
bet you could not tell the difference between school and the zoo.
