    So what is figurative language?


    Literal Language: words or phrases that do not stray from their
    precisely defined meaning
    Ex: The couch is black and has red pillows.
    Figurative Language: words or expressions that have a meaning
    different from the literal interpretation
    Ex: The leaves danced in the wind on the cold October afternoon.

    Simile
    a comparison that often uses the words like or as
    Ex:
    Michael ran as fast as the wind.
    Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're
    going to get.

    Now you try!


    Write, Pair, Share!

    Metaphor
    a comparison made without using the words like or as
    Ex:
    Amy is a shining star.
    My little brother is a couch potato.

    Personification
    the act of describing animals, inanimate objects, and/or other
    nonhuman items using human characteristics
    Ex:
    Lightning danced across the night sky.
    Mollys alarm clock yells at her every morning!

    Hyperbole
    exaggerated statements or claims which may be used to for
    emphasis or humor
    Ex:
    Alex was so hungry he could eat a cow!
    You walk slower than a snail.

    Now you try!

    Symbolism
    occurs when a noun that has meaning in itself is used to
    represent something entirely different
    Ex:
    The American Flag represents freedom and patriotism.

    Onomatopoeia
    a word used to describe or imitate a natural sound made by an
    object or action
    Ex:
    Moo!
    Snap, crackle, pop!

    Now you try!

    Group Activity
    As a group, work together to determine an example for each
    vocabulary word (different from the ones I provided for you) and
    draw a picture that represents your example.
    Everyone must finish the six examples and drawings in-class
    today because each group will briefly present their Sticky-Note
    during tomorrows warm-up.
    Materials - 1 Large Sticky-Note and markers
    Time Limit - 20 minutes

    Example
    Simile:
    I am as cool
    as a
    cucumber!

    In the coming days...

    Figurative Language Lesson, Part II- Discuss the other forms of figurative language.
    (alliteration, idioms, cliches, assonance)
    Distribute different poems to each group and ask the students to work together to:
    1) Determine and highlight any figurative language used throughout the poem
    2) Discuss how the figurative language used throughout the poem affects the
    meaning
    3) Each group should be prepared to present their discoveries to the class.
    As a group, individually, or both:
    1) Create a poem using some/each of the forms of figurative language discussed.
    View various television commercials and have the students create advertisements
    using forms of figurative language.
