What educators are saying

My students have enjoyed practicing Figurative Language with these resources. Since I have struggling readers, I only did in sets of 30 vs. doing all 100 in a lesson. This would be too overwhelming but when we spread it out 1 day a week for extra practice, it was great for them!
This is so engaging and productive! The kids' discussions about whether the items fit certain categories and which was the best place were truly awesome.

Teachers are Saying:

  • "We have talked so much about figurative language but for some reason it never "clicked" with my students. Being able to see so many wonderful examples from books they have read finally made it click how important figurative language is! Plus it being a sorting activity allowed such deep conversations about why they thought it was that type of figurative language. Wonderful product!" -Ashley S.

  • "This is a fun and engaging way for students to practice identifying literary devices. My students loved it." -Caitlyn F.

  • "I was in a pinch right before testing started and needed low-prep activities for my kids to use as review! This was soooo helpful!!" -Tina N.
