Metaphors & Similes

In English, we have started working on Creative Writing. We had to explain what a metaphor and a simile is. We then also had to write two examples for each of them.

Creative Writing Task Matrix: #1

Learning Outcome: Today I'm learning to describe a metaphor and simile using examples.

What is a metaphor?

A metaphor is a way of talking about one thing by describing it in another term.
Examples of Metaphor:
His brain is a computer
My classroom is a zoo

What is a simile?

A simile is when you use 'like' or 'as' to point out how one thing is similar to another.
Examples of Simile:
The sun was shining like a diamond
Her hair was black as a coal
Image result for shining diamond
