Similes and Metaphors in Literature

This printable resource is a literary comparison chart that helps students practice identifying and recording similes and metaphors found in books or poems. Teachers can use this resource to engage students in analyzing figurative language while reading, and to deepen their understanding of how similes and metaphors enhance literary works. Students fill in the chart with details like the book/poem title, author, text page number, the two things being compared, and what they have in common.
