1. Present a few similes and the sample sentences to
the class.
Ex. The baby's skin was as white as snow.
Finishing up the project by himself, the boy was as proud as a peacock.
2. Choose one card with one adjective
from the "JOGO DOS ANTÔNIMOS" DA PLAY TO LEARN JOGOS
EDUCATIVOS. Students pick out one card and create similes by using the
adjective on the card. Emphasize that unique ideas are welcome. The teacher shouldn't
be judmental, and accept any similes as long as they are logical.
Ex. As big as Mount Fuji.
As soft as cotton candy.
Students compare their ideas and
discuss which ones are interesting or funny.
This activity fosters students
creativity and encourages their active participation in the lesson.
My suggestion is to write the similes
on cards and hang them in class for a while.
