Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

Figurative language uses words in ways that go beyond their literal meaning, and students practice naming the devices and restating them in plain words. There are 8 sheets for 7th grade here, 7 with answer keys. Figurative Language in Nature Writing has six numbered figures in a marsh essay, and Figurative Language in Sports Writing uses lines from a sports column. Hyperbole or Literal Path Puzzle sends students through ten boxes, and Explain the Pun asks for two meanings of one word. Native sheets practice L.7.5 and L.7.5.A.
