Figurative Language Treasure Hunt

Thursday 29 February 2024

This week, we had to hunt to find figurative language hidden around the classroom!

Once we had found one, then we had to write down what figurative language what being shown. For example, similes, onomatopoeia, alliteration or a personification.

Then, we put our skills to the test by practising some figurative language that might help us with our narrative next week.

A fan favourite was Hardev’s:

“The lake held the boat captive like a lion in a zoo.”

We loved it because it was a stunning example of personification and a simile.

Help at home by practising some of the harder examples of figurative language like hyperbole, idioms and metaphors.
