What are metaphors and similes?
Metaphors Similes
Metaphors describe different things, saying that they are the same when in fact they are not.
The children in my class are a dream.
My friend is a greedy pig.
Similes compare different things, saying that they are like each other but not exactly the same. Similes often use the words like and as.
I feel as cold as ice.
Tom ran like a cat being chased by a dog.
Can you write a metaphor? Can you write a simile?

Tuesday 7th July 2020To recognise character feeling and emotions.
Inside the body you will write their emotions and feelings that they feel inside. For example, nervous. (Try and be as imaginative and creative as you can with your choice of words. You may like to use a thesaurus to find more complex alternatives).
Outside the body you write about your physical feelings. For example, My legs ached uncontrollably as I plowed through the thick snow.
(These are likely to be short sentences as oppose to the single words inside the body).

The mountain summit towered overhead with thick clouds slowly drifting by. A blanket of snow glistened from the reflecting sun, disguising the dangerous burning rays as beauty. In the distance, the rumble of thunder echoed through, a storm was brewing and I was feeling unprepared. As I ascended the altitude grew and I struggled to catch a breath, feeling dizzy, the landscape became a blur. The fine, drizzle of rain started to gently pat against my skin, rapidly turning to hail with a razorsharp cut. My chances of reaching the summit now seemed far from reality like a distant dream.
