Enrichment Strategy: Identifying and Giving Examples
“Teacher, May I?”
Figurative Language
This offline enrichment strategy helps students practice identifying and giving examples of
different forms of figurative language. This activity is best completed after students have had a
chance to play the online Featured Games for Figurative Language.
Goal:
To help students recognize the different forms of figurative language.
What You’ll Need:
Figurative Language Student Resource Sheet, one per student
Answer Key
Pencils
What To Do:
1. Print and copy Student Resource Sheets
2. Give students some time to read through and identify the examples of figurative
language on the sheet. On their own, students should label each example so that they
can quickly find them during the game.
3. Have students line up side by side along the far wall of the classroom, while you stand
across the room.
4. The first student to raise his/her hand may ask the question. “Teacher may I use...”
Student inserts a type of figurative language.
5. You may respond with a “Yes.” Then, the student will have to give you an example of
that form of figurative language that has not yet been used in the game. OR you may
respond with a “No” in which case, you will add an alternative type of figurative
language.
6. Students may make their own examples or use the student resource sheet for their
answers. A correct answer gains them one step toward the teacher. The first student to
reach the teacher wins the game.
