Updated just in time for Poetry Month!
This packet of worksheets contains extensive guided practice on figurative language. Metaphor, personification, simile, idioms, hyperbole, and literal language are covered.
Whether for classwork, homework, bonus work, sub plans, or as a resource for bell ringer material, this packet will get the job done.
Answer key included!
There are a lot of figurative language worksheets out there on the World Wide Web. What makes this bundle unique is that Bloom's taxonomy is applied throughout. Students move from lower-order thinking skills like defining figurative language, to higher order skills like analyzing and creating figurative language
There are twelve pages in all, with these sections.
Defining Figurative Language
Identifying Figurative Language
Identifying and Justifying Your Answer
Interpreting Figurative Language
Writing Figurative Language
Reflecting on Figurative Language
Analyzing and Evaluating Figurative Language
The section for Identifying Figurative Language contains over 80 sentences for students to practice on. If that is too many for individual students, you can count off the students into groups and divide the work among them.
Here is a list of the poems that are included for student analysis:
A Soldier by Robert Lee Frost
Mowing by Robert Lee Frost
An excerpt from The Walrus and the Carpenter by Lewis Carroll
My November Guest by Robert Lee Frost
To the Thawing Wind by Robert Lee Frost
My Shadow by Robert Louis Stevenson

Thanks for the constructive feedback. If you're looking for something similar that's got more creative zing, you might want to check out my Sunny Day Fun and Sports Literacy Packet. It has figurative language practice and more, all in the theme of outdoor sports and summer fun.

This is a great resource to use for figurative language centers, discussion, and quizzes. The poems lead right into poem analysis. Nicely done!

This was quick and easy to use. I do wish it were in word format for editing, and I wish the poem prompts (which I love) had suggested answers.

This was a great resource for my 8th graders-- perfect for their grade level. I am hoping to use a couple things for my 6th graders as well, but will likely need to modify. I highly recommend this resource for 8th grade maybe even 9th. Excellent! Thanks!

Teacher Galaxy (TpT Seller)
Thank you! And an extra big thanks for the grade suggestions. It's hard to judge sometimes how something will work for students of another grade!

Hi, I downloaded your product and see that it is in a PDF format. Is there any way I could get them in Word so that I can make some small changes?
