Figurative Language Links

Parents,

I'm very excited about the booklets we are creating about figurative language! Today we talked about 3 of the 10 types we'll be covering this week.  Students already have quite a bit of practice with "onomatopoeia" from our writing workshop lessons.  We will continue talking about figurative language all week in class.  Students may work on their booklet as class work or as homework.

Helpful websites for the student's work on literary devices:
