Description

Are your students in need of repeat practice when it comes to figurative language in short stories? Finding short, manageable practice that does not overwhelm 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students can be challenging.

These 20 figurative language task cards with text-dependent reading comprehension questions are the perfect solution to give your students the practice they need.

The use of short well-known Fiction stories will help engage your students as they practice answering multiple-choice and constructed response questions.

Great for middle school students. Teachers of other grade levels have found success. Click for theĀ Elementary set or High School set.

There are 20 short passages, 40 multiple-choice questions, and 20 short answer questions. There is a figurative language question on each card, along with a mix of reading standards to help spiral in reading skills practice.

What teachers have said about this resource:

"These task cards were the perfect way to review figurative language. I really like how these cards went beyond simply identifying the type of figurative language (for example, similes and metaphors). Rather, the questions were higher level and encouraged students to refer to the text to understand how/why the figurative language was used. Thanks so much!"

"Best task cards I have found yet. I bought all of your sets and love the versatility of them. I have two lab classes for my intervention students, one is 6th grade and the other is a mix of 7th and 8th. I love that these cards are large, they match standards, they are similar to the questions they will see on our district tests, and the students love the practice. I like to get my kids as prepared as possible for testing since a lot of them have anxiety over the complexity of the questions at time and these cards allowed me to better prepare them."
