6th Grade Figurative Language Worksheets

Ages 11-12 · 2 sub-topics · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs

Figurative language uses words beyond their literal meaning, and literary devices are the tools authors use to shape a story. There are 21 worksheets for 6th grade here, each with an answer key. Hyperbole in Everyday Speech, Allusions to Myths and Stories, Situational Irony and Archetypes in Myths and Folktales show the range, from hyperbole and imagery to symbolism, irony, mood and archetypes (CCSS L.6.5.A, RL.6.2, RL.6.4 and RL.6.5).
