student participationClass Experience
US Grade 1 - 2
We will discuss literary devices: similes, metaphors, hyperbole, personification, onomatopoeia, alliteration, assonance, and symbolism. Students are introduced to each literary device, participate in matching discussion, and then interpret meaning. Students will follow teacher discussion, slides, question and answer, and a student information packet to use in the class and for future reference. Student participation very much encouraged. Session One: explanation and introduction of literary devices with examples Session Two: review and matching examples to literary devices, fun with cartoons and videos Session Three: analyzing text to find and discuss literary devices Using: New York City Poem by Carmelo Money Poem by Davon Alone Edgar Allen Po Alone Maya Angelou
Learning Goals
Students will learn and practice analyzing literary devices to improve understanding and writing. Students will benefit from discussion, inquiry, and interpretation leading to increased articulation.Other Details
Parental Guidance
Student discussion open to responses when asked to guess what a sentence might mean, for example: He snores like a bear.
Supply List
