Many may consider the terminology used by the Dukes "country." But, in the world of English we call that figurative language: similes, cliches, hyperboles, etc. So, I have to admit that the Dukes are an old favorite of mine, and while watching an episode, this lesson idea hit me. I teach in a rural school, so this was the perfect review for my students. They love it, and this is real world application of a standards-based skill.

From the assignment:
Directions: Watch the episode of Dukes of Hazzard. These characters are known for their colorful language. As you watch, write down as many literary terms or figures of language as you can.

This is a print and go graphic organizer chart that students use to log examples of figurative language from any TV episode of The Dukes of Hazzard. I only use the TV shows in class - not the movie.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

This is my 10th year teaching English and 6th year with journalism. I have experience at the middle school, high school, and college level. Rural and suburban. Regular, honors, and inclusion. I also teach Prek-k in Children's Church and K-2 in Awanas!! So my range is very wide. I see English everywhere. I know that sounded a little "Sixth Sense"ish, but it's true! I can't even walk into McDonald's without noticing the pun on a sign in their window. What's worse, is I actually stopped to take a picture for use in my class! To me, my job is about teaching students to see, make, and appreciate those connections. The world around them is full of opportunity, and I want them to notice that and seize it. In addition to all this... I am also working as a common core ELA training specialist. My store is geared directly to helping teachers integrate common core in their classrooms smoothly and effectively. Most everything, as well, has been tested in my classroom with a variety of students, so I am confident that these products work!
