After reading the short story, "The Lie" by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., 8th grade English students put their analytical thinking skills to the test.

Using Mrs. Thompson's one-of-a-kind simile generator to express their unique thoughts about lying, her classes produced a collective poem of 70-plus comparisons.

Stop by the North hall to see their creations and to gain some insights about this socially unacceptable no-no. You won't be disappointed, and who knows? It might keep you honest!
