Similes Resources

A number of printable resources linked to similes are available below. Here are some ideas for using them in the classroom:

• Put them up on display!
• Print the examples of similes and ask the children to explain what they mean.
• Talk about the similes. Have the children heard any of them before? Where did they hear them?
• Let children use the similes to make their own ‘Book of Similes’ to refer to during independent writing.
• Ask children to find other examples of similes.
• Ask children to make up their own similes, using ‘like’ and ‘as’.
