Similes and Metaphors
|This video defines and provides multiple examples of both similes and metaphors. Video imagery and voice-over combine to highlight the similarities and differences between similes and metaphors. The meaning and role of figurative language in reading, writing, listening, and speaking is presented. Students are presented a step by step format to differentiate between similes and metaphors, note the quality of the two subjects (or objects) being compared within the sentence, and understand why an author or speaker would choose to use the simile or metaphor to enhance communication.
