I did a unit on simile and metaphor back around Christmas time. I used a number of techniques to help the kids grasp the concept. One of the most successful, however, was the lyrics from "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" by Dr. Seuss. The kids had been watching "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas" during indoor recess so they were familiar with the song. To locate copies of the lyrics I typed in "lyrics and the song title" on the Google search engine.By the way, the kids loved it and I keep referring back to the lesson as we are in the middle of writing poetry. It really seemed to get their creative juices flowing.
