Lyrics:
It’s figurative language
authors use to describe
It’s a figure of speech

that compares two things
It’s helps the reader

to visualize
Similes make writing

Much more interesting


She’s as brave as a lion, She is strong like a bear

He’s as fast as a cheetah, He is quick like a hare
They’re as sneaky as a fox creeping back to his lair
Similes use like or as to compare


He is dull like a potato, she’s as sweet as a pear
It’s heavy like an elephant, or as light air
She’s fancy as a poodle with the big, fluffy hair
Similes use like or as to compare


You need to know this if you’re gonna be a great reader 
And I’m rooting for you just I’m your cheerleader


The bus was loud as a jet as it drove here and there 

Our classroom is just as much fun as a fair
You’re as kind as a kitten, You’re as bright as a flare
Similes use like or as to compare
