Figurative Language is my FAVORITE! It's such a wonderful way to use words to communicate in a different way. Over the past week, we have been talking a lot about the different types of Figurative Language.
Here is a great rap to help us remember some of the different types.
Watch this video, then leave a comment about yourself using one of the types of Figurative Language.
This is a alliteration about one thing I did this weekend...
Mrs. DeThomas dusted downstairs during the Dallas Cowboys destruction.

I think you may be forgetting an important part of this idiom...
Why would you eat your shoe? Does it smell good? Does it look like food?

A Day on the Lake
A beautiful autumn day,
The sun rays ricochet off the water,
The water clear as glass,
Sunfish swimming by,
As the boat bobs like a buoy,
We relax and fish all day.
