The Power of Words

Metaphors for Tsunamis

We have been learning about these powerful natural disasters. We are also learning how to give our information reports impact by using metaphors. Here are some of the metaphors we have used for Tsunamis:

A wave of sorrow hit Japan and had devastating effects - Kate

A gaping mouth of water swallowed the land - Amber

A massive wall of water hit Japan - Mary

My challenge to you is to add more metaphors to our list.
