Inspire your students to add some poetry to their summer vacation postcards! This activity reviews two figures of speech: metaphors and similes. Your student will read Paulo's postcard and underline each time he uses a metaphor and simile to describe his vacation. Then, your student will practice writing their own metaphors and similes. This worksheet pairs well with the lesson plan Similes, Metaphors, and Idioms of Figurative Language.
