Simile: She can climb as fast as a monkey, I feel as free as a bird, The snow flakes sparkled like diamonds, Her backpack feels as light as a feather, Metaphor: He is the class clown, Life is a highway, All my students are angels, The football player is a giant, Personification: The flowers begged for water, The camera loved her, The sun smiled down at me, The rundown house appears depressed, Alliteration: Picking purple plums is pretty tiring, The lazy river is lined with leaping lizards, Black birds flew back to their branches, The sly snake slithers slowly in the sand, Idiom: They are going to tie the knot this weekend, I'm tired, let's call it a day, Something fishy is going on around here, Not my circus, not my monkeys, Hyperbole: This pizza is hotter than the sun, I'm drowning in homework, Her smile was a mile wide, This assignment is going to take me forever, Allusion: He is the Elvis of our generation, He was a real Romeo with the ladies, She is the Einstein of our class, You aren't Superman, stop trying to save everyone, Onomatopoeia: We can hear the fire crackle in the fireplace, The bacon is sizzling in the pan, The snake hissed as it was chased, The drip, drip of the water was distracting,
