Similes can be tricky for English language learners or students with language learning difficulties to understand and they often need to be specifically introduced to them. In this online, self-checking, activity hosted at Boom Learning℠, students choose the sentence or part of a sentence from the left hand side of the card that best goes with the simile on the right hand side.

There are 16 similes, with at least two different cards for each simile. 12 cards will play in each round, so each round will be slightly different. (Note that if you are using "fast pins", all the cards will be presented in each round.)

Illustrated with photos, rather than clipart, this deck is suitable for all ages of English language learners as it does not look childish. With only one simile per card, this deck should be easier for students than Set 2.

The similes included are: proud as a peacock, dead as a dodo, clear as mud, easy as pie, wise as an owl, weak as a kitten, brave as a lion, flat as a pancake, like a fridge, light as a feather, sleep like a log, fast as lightning, hungry as a horse, sharp as a tack, stiff as a board, eager as a beaver.

This Google Slides file provides you with several ready to go word sort activities but, more importantly, it is very easily customizable so you can quickly and easily include exactly the words and sorts that you need YOUR students to work on! Unlike a paper-based sort, if a student does not finish this activity by the end of center-time, they can come back to it the the next day and all the pieces will be exactly where they left them - no more lost words that got cut and dropped on the floor before they could be glued in place! You can even quickly differentiate by adding or removing some words for certain students to raise or lower the bar. Great for English language learners who are working on new vocabulary! You can even use these templates to sort images rather than words.

Similes can be tricky for English language learners or students with language learning difficulties to understand and they often need to be specifically introduced to them. In this online, self-checking, activity hosted at Boom Learning℠, students will see 3 similes and 6 sentences on each card. Their job is to choose the sentences that go best with each simile and drag and drop to match. They must get all 3 right on the card to get the card correct, so this deck is harder than Set 1 that only has one simile per card.

Each round is only 5 cards as that's 15 questions. They will need to play multiple times to see all the similes. Some similes will appear more than once in different sentences to reinforce their meaning.

Illustrated with photos, rather than clipart, this deck is suitable for all ages of English language learners as it does not look childish.

The similes included are: as proud as a peacock, as sick as a dog, as busy as a bee, as tough as nails, as cool as a cucumber, as free as a bird, as easy as pie, as light as a feather, as stiff as a board, as dead as a dodo, like a fish out of water, as wise as an owl, as weak as a kitten, as strong as an ox, as clear as mud, like a fridge, as eager as a beaver, as skinny as a rake, as gentle as a lamb, as hungry as a horse, as warm as toast, as brave as a lion, as fast as lightning, sleep like a log, as slow as molasses, like a sauna, as white as a ghost, as blind as a bat, as proud as a lion, as brave as a lion, as hungry as a lion
