Description
Analogies are used to explain an idea by comparing two totally different things and finding a common relationship between them. They are used to explain similarities and differences by creating associations and visual connections. By forming comparative relationships between what is familiar and what is new, analogies help to develop logical reasoning skills and to promote a greater comprehension of complex information. Analogies serve as mental models that help to visualize abstract concepts. Forming Word Connections: Picture the Analogy challenges students to solve a set of analogies with the aid of pictures incorporated to increase a visual representation of the relationship between word sets.
