Simile and Metaphor Worksheet Practice
This worksheet provides 10 metaphors/similes that allow students to practice their learning. Pictures of example next to each.

There are also 4 "Write Your Own" prompts at the end of the worksheet. This has always been a big hit with my students and can work for grades 4-8.
