Description

Figurative Language Sorting Activity on Sticky Notes:

This figurative language activity includes hyperboles, metaphors, similes, puns, proverbs/adages, idioms, onomatopoeia, personification, and alliteration.

There are over 200 figures of speech designed to be printed on sticky notes. Created for 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th grade, this activity is perfect for individuals, pairs, small groups, or the whole class.

Differentiation:

  • There are full-color cards and category toppers for students new to figures of speech (or for ESL students). Each figure of speech is color-coded (all idioms are green, for example).
  • The black and white sticky notes and category toppers are designed for students who are familiar with figures of speech but need practice.

The answer sheets are also differentiated.

You can choose to:

  • Allow students to do the activity without an answer sheet
  • Use the answer sheet that requires students to write the number of each figure of speech next to the correct category
  • Use the answer sheet that also requires students to provide evidence for their choice

Ideas for Use:

  • As a test review
  • As a game- groups work to complete the activity first (with the highest accuracy)
  • As an introduction for each figure of speech (the color-coded set)
  • As an evaluation
  • During stations on a bulletin board or whiteboard
  • As a catalyst for a class discussion on figures of speech
  • As a review at the beginning of the year for students who have been exposed to figurative language

    This provided a great opportunity to practice figurative language with my restless kiddos before Christmas break without a worksheet. We worked in groups and used the post-it notes to categorize. Many people commented on the activity since we hung our finished products in the hall. The only thing that was more difficult for me was removing the ones I don’t teach in 5th grade, but the sheet with the answers made it easy for me to find the numbers and remove them after printing. I think I’ll share those with the teacher in the grade level that covers those specific ones. I just love printing on post-its! Thank you for a great resource!

    Loved this resource and so did my students! The post-it format was new to them and they had a lot of fun with it. The examples were really clear as well. I hadn’t taught puns as a fig. lang. but I made it the mystery category as an extra challenge to the students.

    My students loved using this resource and it was a great way to go through many different examples at one time! I have tried going through videos, but putting the examples in context was very meaningful for my class.
