Winning With Writing feedback/input

Level 7, Lesson 9, Day 3--for anyone who happens to have the book.

This worksheet asks the student to write examples of hyperbole.  DD's:
1. The train was louder than a tornado.
2. The cheetah was faster than a bullet.
3. The horse was bucking higher than a wall.
4. She jumped as high as a kangaroo.
5. That building is taller than the sky!

Thoughts?  I think #2 and #4 are ok.  The others seem borderline.

Also, fine output in general for 7th?  I'm concerned about her writing, but have little basis for comparison.

I think they are all fine except maybe number 3. Try googling examples of hyperbole to see other examples. I think it’s fine for a seventh grader. The idea is to play with the technique.  It looks to me like she’s got the idea.
