Engage your students in a relaxing yet purposeful review of figurative language with this spring-themed color-by-code activity! Perfect for middle and high school students, this resource covers key figurative language elements—hyperbole, simile, metaphor, personification, alliteration, allusion, and onomatopoeia. Ideal for a comprehensive review, as an early finisher task, or a choice activity in literacy centers, this activity allows students to learn and unwind. The discussion protocol extends learning as students develop and use higher order thinking skills to analyze why authors use figurative language (author's purpose) and effects on reader.

Included:

• 10 figurative language questions
• A color-by-code picture
• Answer key
• Discussion protocol to foster higher-order thinking

Just print and distribute! These also make nice bulletin board/classroom displays.

I developed this resource for use in my English 2 class for 10th graders and they loved it!
