McBroom and the Big Wind http://www.opencourtresources.com

mite distinctly zephyr trifling rambunctious

mite I can’t deny it-it does get a mite windy out here on the prairie. He was just a mite upset about winning second place in the race. Mite- tiny bit

Distinctly- I remember distinctly the first prairie wind that came scampering along. The teacher spoke distinctly so that everyone would understand the instructions. Distinctly- clearly or specifically

zephyr The zephyr sneaked around the house to the back door. The zephyr made the trees sway. Zephyr- the west wind

trifling That thieving wind was apt to make off with it, leaving us with a trifling hole in the ground. The judge threw out the trifling case because she had important matters to deal with. Trifling- little or not important

Rambunctious- The rambunctious wind blew down many trees. The rambunctious children ran wildly around the playground. Rambunctious- active and noisy in a violent way
