hope this helps. the activities are for grade 5.Personification books:
The Nose by Catherine Cowan
Call Me Ahnihgito by Pam conrad
Night Noises by Mem Fox (also for similes)
also comic strips Simile and Metaphor | books: Any chapter from Island of the Blue Dolphins and Maniac Magee depending on the grade level. for similes you can have them create riddles comparing two objects. metaphors: create a metaphor poem about their family. For example my family lives in a medicine chest:
dad is the super size band aid, strong and powerful but not always effective | |
in a crisis.
mom is the middle size tweezer which picks and pokes and pinches.I hope you get the idea of the poem. The unit is the medicine cabinet and the elements are the things found in the cabinet. for personification: have them work with a partner and create a commercial that uses personification danielle
