Fun Figurative Freeway
Write some fun similes or metaphors below. If you are good, add a personification.
Personication- Uses human qualities and apply them to nature. Example, The flowers dancing in the wind.
Simile- Uses like or as to compare two totally different objects. For an example, The boy is as strong as an ox pulling a plow.
Metaphors- Compare two objects by saying what the other is.
Alliterations- When 4 words or more begin with the same letter.
Oxymorans- When words are grouped together with opposite meanings
Reverse Simile- Uses three items instead of two. Ex: Alabama Adventure makes Disney world look like a carnival.
Apostrophe- Addresses nonliving things to have a conversation. Ex: “O”, Christmas tree, how beautiful you are to me.
Symbolism- Connects two things using relationships that are symbolic of human relationships.

Stephanie, you did a good job with your figurative expressions. I certainly hope you have a good weekend and holiday.
Molly, thank you for your kind words. But, I really think you are a better student than I am a teacher.
Dear Mr.Finkley,
I miss you so much. Middle school is really fun but,I wish you were my writing teacher. But Mrs.Ware is really nice.
Lucy, keep hanging tough. If you have any questions about your writing assignments, let me know.
Great job! Keep up the good work!
