Make them build a model (straight lines and trasversal on differently coloured cartoons, then cut along the lines to get different pieces like a sort of "tangram", then re-build shuffling the colours to put in evidence the different pieces): they'll manipulate pieces being able to juxtapose them to get supplementary angles, or to verify they're congruent by putting one upon another.\n\nMake the same thing with non-parallel lines and let them verify that rules don't work anymore.\n\n(that's just a rough suggestion: you'll certainly make it better)

I'll be glad to help. Could you provide more detail? Do you remember any examples of the (something ridiculous) that I could work with? Thanks. If you can get me more details I'll edit my answer if I find something.

A good arts subject to compare and contrast I feel would be\nabstract art vs. classic art! This is nothing new, but you could use various art mediums such as: concrete, steel, canvass, murals etc...\n\nGood Luck! \n\nHave fun with it. \n\nPlay around with different ideas and different approaches might also jump out from the corners.

I took that years ago and it was tough...I don't know about any classes offered to prepare, but I would go to the library and get a book on analogies, or google it.  I did OK on the test, but my brain was fried afterwards...LOL  Good luck!!

I notice that you have posted the question a few times and that some people have confused similes for metaphors, it is up to you, to sort the good from the bad. Those that have suggested sites for you to visit, are giving the best help and I would recommend that you do. Here is another site for you, Good Luck.\n\nhttp://www.askoxford.com/asktheexperts.....\n\nKevin, Liverpool, UK

How Do I Solve an Analogy?\n\nSolving analogies is a terrific way to sharpen your thinking skills and prepare for standardized tests. An analogy is a type of word problem that consists of two word pairs, like the following example:\n\nGRACEFUL : CLUMSY :: HOT: _______\n\nFind a word that correctly completes the second pair. At first glance, the words in an analogy may seem to have nothing to do with each other, but the words are always logically related. The first pair of words has a relationship similar to the second pair of words. To solve the analogy, you need to figure out that relationship.\n\nRead the analogy like this:\n\n"Graceful is to clumsy as hot is to 'blank.'"\n\nAsk yourself: What's the relationship between graceful and clumsy? These words are antonyms -- they have opposite meanings -- so the second pair of words must also be antonyms. Fill in the blank with a word that means the opposite of "hot", and you've solved the analogy. The best answer is "COLD." If you find an unfamiliar word in an analogy, use a dictionary to check its meaning.\n\nCommon Analogy Types\n\nIn addition to antonyms, the word pairs in an analogy often have one of the following types of relationships:\n\n* Synonyms: Words that have the same or similar meanings, as in\nUNHAPPY : SAD\n\n*Antonyms: Words that have opposite meanings, as in OPEN : CLOSED\n\n* Descriptive: One word describes the other word, as in\nFAST : CHEETAH\n\n* Part to whole (or whole to part): One word is a part or piece of the other, as in\nPIECE : PUZZLE\n\n* Item to category: One word names an item that falls into the group named by the other word, as in BASEBALL : SPORTS BALLS\n\nHere's another example:\n\nPUPPY : DOG :: KITTEN : _______\n\nThe analogy is read: "Puppy is to dog as kitten is to 'blank.'" The first pair of words is not related in any of the ways listed above. Try reading the analogy as a sentence that expresses the relationships between the words: "A puppy is a young dog, as a kitten is a young. . ."? "CAT" is the best answer.

people seems to be confusing "analogy" with "simile"\n\nAn analogy is a hyphothetical story presented to illustrate a point or concept by showing a comparsion.\n\nA metaphor is using an image to replace a object.  The phoenix to represent renewal, for instance.

Check out the site below.  It has an example in numbers and words.  It's too hard to explain just in words.  Good luck.

A metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase denoting one kind of object or action is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between them\n\nExamples: Drowning in money\na volley of oaths\nThe ship plows the seas\n\nA metaphor is an implied comparison in contrast to the explicit comparison of the simile\nmetaphor - a marble brow\nsimile - a brow as white as marble

Facts help convey concepts and examples illustrate the fact the concept is conveying.
