Item description

Figurative Language English Center: Classic Similes Puzzling Problems Set 3 is a fun, matching activity designed to engage students in developing their knowledge of similes and overall enthusiasm for figurative language.

 

This center is perfect for young learners or ESL students who are just beginning their journey into similes and figurative language.

 

Each simile needs to be solved by deciphering a combination of jumbled letters and pictures. You may wish to demonstrate with an example card, but generally students understand the task very quickly.

 

These cards have been used successfully with:

  • Grades 2-4
  • ESL / EAL / EFL / Grades 4 – 12, University/College, Adult

This resource contains:

  • 41 cards (20 simile matches and one title card)
  • Student recording sheet (optional)
  • Answer Key
  • A bonus extra set without the ‘puzzling’ elements. This extra set can be used as a differentiation option, to play the memory/concentration game or as answer cards.
  • PDF and PNG Files

Instructions:

  • Print, laminate and cut the individual cards. (p. 2-12)
  • The differentiated/answer set may also be printed and laminated (p. 15-24)
  • Mix the cards. Using the imbedded arrows, have students match the cards to create the classic simile. (You may wish to print out the student recording sheet and have students write down the similes)
  • Cards can be divided into as few or as many sets as required.
  • As well as finding matches, older or advanced students can try playing the memory/concentration game while emerging learners can play the memory/concentration game using the differentiated cards.

 

Enjoy!
