- These task cards teach and review concepts. Tutorials are included.
- Students go beyond identifying metaphors, personification, imagery, etc. and analyze how the use of these devices are used by an author in a passage.
- Questions are written similar to those in state and local assessments. Students get authentic practice with mini passages that mirror the writing techniques of award winning authors.
- There is a digital self-grading portion included. Just click to assign. The guided tutorials are like having an extra teacher in the classroom. Students get guidance about how to analyze text, and they get practice actually analyzing it. A roster of student progress is provided for you through Easel (at no additional charge with your TPT membership). Repeated practice allows you track student progress.
These task cards are unique because they teach similes, metaphors, idioms, personification, hyperbole, and imagery. PLUS, the questions are written at different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy to help students analyze how and why authors use each of these techniques in text.
