Figurative Language Worksheets ⭐ Figurative Language Anchor Chart +

This Figurative Language Unit includes worksheets, posters, task cards, an interactive flipbook, and a quiz! This is a printable resource that works well in a home setting. The following resources are included:

1. Figurative Language Worksheets ~ These no prep worksheets are designed for 3rd, 4th, 5th, & 6th grade students (simile, metaphor, idiom, hyperbole, personification, onomatopoeia, and alliteration). Each type of figurative language listed above has two practice printables with clear examples and answer keys.

This resource includes:

→ 2 practice worksheets for each literary device

→ A quiz

→ Answer keys

→ A list of aligned Common Core Standards

I use the first page as guided practice, and we work through it together. I assign the second page as independent practice. ( I like to correct it the independent practice together as a class so they receive immediate feedback.) After we have worked through all the different types, I assess with the quiz provided.

2. Anchor Charts / Posters: 8 anchor charts for figures of speech, simile, metaphor, alliteration, personification, idiom, onomatopoeia, & hyperbole. Each poster includes a brief definition, example, and illustration.

3. Task Cards

• There are 40 task cards. The first 24 cards are easier because they only provide one sentence to analyze . The next 16 cards are more difficult. These cards provide students with 3 sentence and ask them to determine which sentence matches a specific type of figurative language. This provides more of a challenge for more advanced students.
• I have also provided answer recording sheets and an answer key so students can check their work.

4. Flipbook featuring similes, metaphors, idioms, hyperbole, alliteration, personification, and onomatopoeia. I use this flipbook in conjunction with figurative language posters & focus on one literary device at a time. Answer keys are included.

• Directions: Pass out a collated set to each student, and have them cut on the dotted line around the tabs on the side of each page. Once the pages are lined up appropriately staple the edge or staple it into their language notebook. You could also ask a parent volunteer to prep them a head of time.
• I ask them to write the definition, and we complete the sentences together. Then they write their own, and illustrate it in the top right box. We then come up with 3 examples as a class. I write each sentence on the board, and we discuss why it is a good example. Next, they independently record 3 more examples of their own and search in their reading books for examples found in text. (They should include the title & page number. I like them to find at least one example, and allow them to come back as they find more throughout the week.)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ P. T said, "Oh. My. Goodness! This was EXACTLY what I was looking for in a digital resource! We are working on Native American Stories. My students didn't understand figurative language, and NOW THEY DO!"
