How to use these task cards: Here are 36 task cards to help your students practice identifying the 8 common types of figurative language: simile, metaphor, oxymoron, personification, alliteration, onomatopoeia, hyperbole and idioms. The task cards are supplementary and should be used once your students have been presented to figurative language. Task cards can be used in following ways: • Give each student a card and have him/ her read it and discuss the answer. • These cards can be used for oral activities in big or small groups. • You can also use this as individually written homework or seatwork. • Use the recording sheets to document the child’s answers. Another option is to record their answers on their notebook.
