This resource book draws on classic literature to illustrate the use of 40 literary terms. Divided into sections on figurative language, poetic language, and literacy techniques, the book covers hyperbole, metaphor, irony, imagery, dialect, plot, alliteration, onomatopoeia, allusion, conflict, and lots more! The first page of each lesson includes a definition of the term and one or more samples from grade-appropriate classic literature. The next two pages challenge students to identify and understand the term and to use it on their own. Review: Figuratively Speaking - Worked well for my low English classes. Review: Smartly written resource - The literary excerpts are from public domain works and aregenerally very short but effective models.
