We COLLECT great figurative language examples from my read alouds and from my students' independent reading. We've filled this cabinet a few times! They love adding to collection and using this as a resource for their writing!
UPDATE: My Figurative Language Interactive Bulletin Board has been added to my Teachers Pay Teachers Store-click here to check it out!
My favorite book is the thesaurus! We collect words too! These are our synonym key chains. I made this template on index cards.
My idiom posters are a focal point in our classroom and constantly used as a resource. These posters are a great visual for students to reference. We also have several resources we use in our writing folders.

I like how you teach figurative lanugage throughout the year - I usually teach it as a unit - but I like your idea and how the students are always looking for examples.

I'm like you and teach figurative language all year- mainly because it's so fun and they need constant exposure to it! Thanks for linking up!!

Have you ever considered publishing an ebook or
ReplyDeleteguest authoring on other websites? I have a blog based upon on
the same ideas you discuss and would love to have you share
some stories/information. I know my visitors would enjoy
your work. If you are even remotely interested, feel free
to shoot me an email.
