The videos below are meant to help you better understand figurative language. You are welcome to watch as many of them as you need to fully understand the topic. However, DO NOT spend hours of class time watching videos when you already understand what to do. :) If the videos become a way for you to procrastinate your work, I'll have to take them down. :(
You may not use examples from the video for your assignment. Your work must come from your book.
