Let's Pre-Assess ourselves FIRST!
Directions:
Today, we are going to be talking about one of my favorite elements of writing that is frequently seen in poetry...Figurative Language. You probably have heard of or at least seen figurative language before but what does it really mean?
Figurative language comes in many different forms but overall is when language/words are used in a special way to express a point.

Today's Work:
Let's look at some poems together. We are going to try to find some of our figurative language strategies!
Today's Practice:
Today you will have two tasks:
1. Visit our Padlet to leave a note about what figurative language accomplishes, or does, for us as readers.
2. Continue working on your own poetry in your writing notebook. See if you can add figurative language to your poetry.
