👉 A physical divider intended to block an area from view, or provide shelter from something dangerous.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look,
At this word "screen," it’s quite a book!
The dictionary gives us a clue, you see,
“A physical divider, for you and for me!”
It can block a view, that's plain to state,
Like a fence or wall, sealing off the gate.
Protecting from dangers, hot or cold,
A shield against stories yet untold.
Think of a window, keeping rain away,
Or a curtain drawn, at the close of day.
A screen in a movie house, dark and grand,
Blocking the light with a masterful hand!
It’s about stopping something from appearing,
Protecting you safely, always endearing.
So "screen" means barrier, block, or shield,
Let's make sure that our understanding is revealed!
Any questions? Don’t be shy, let your thoughts flow free,
Now who can think of another way a screen might be seen, you see?
