11th Grade Short Stories Games

This resource features the most fun your students will have with figurative language all year for use with Richard Connell's The Most Dangerous Game!

I created this figurative language challenge game and lesson plan several years ago for my middle school students with the goal of encouraging them to close read for figurative language. Little did I know that it would become the most requested game among my students of all time. This resource includes a meticulously-detailed lesson plan using warm-up, explanation, application, and synthesis, and a one-of-a-kind game that will get your students excited about identifying the copious amount of figurative language that pervades the text. This is the perfect lesson plan for any time you need to amp up the energy in your classroom without sacrificing learning... and of course, it is Common Core aligned!

Product Includes:

• CCSS-Aligned full-length lesson plan
• Figurative language review worksheet with pop culture examples
• 8 Figurative Language Signs to hang in room
• Detailed, Color-Coded Answer Key (editable!)
• Full text of The Most Dangerous Game
