Item Descriptions

Task Cards

This resource consists of 36 Task Cards featuring multiple-choice questions. These questions are designed to evaluate students' proficiency in identifying various figurative language techniques, including simile, metaphor, hyperbole, idiom, personification, and onomatopoeia. Each card presents 1-2 sentences for students to analyze and determine the specific figurative language technique used.

These Task Cards are ideal for small group instruction, mini lessons, guided practice, test preparation, literacy centers, and formative assessments—or even quizzes!

During mini lessons, you can demonstrate how to identify figurative language in sentences. They are also valuable for guided practice sessions, allowing students to identify figurative language with your assistance. Additionally, they serve as excellent formative assessments. Display 1-2 cards on the Smartboard or distribute black-and-white cards to each student for them to answer. This approach offers a quick and efficient method to assess understanding and review as needed. Students can collaborate in pairs to complete these engaging Task Cards as well!

A Task Card Recording Sheet with an Answer Key is also included!

Digital Interactive Version

Students read the lines and move the correct letter choice to the designated space on the right side of the task card! This interactive feature ensures engagement and maintains students' focus throughout the activity.

✔️Need to teach Greek & Latin along with Context Clues?

✔️Looking for way to get your students thinking critically & making connections?

✔️Need to integrate vocabulary in a meaningful way?

This activity includes worksheets, task cards and Google Quizzes for vocab practice

Students will use key words from the definitions in the first activity to determine the meaning of the Greek or Latin prefix. By recognizing the prefixes in words they recognize (and some they won't) students will begin making connections to other words they hear and read. This is a natural way to build in vocabulary to daily instruction that includes context clues and the Greek and Latin.

Included:

• Greek & Latin Roots Exploration: Dive into 45 carefully selected words, each featuring 9 impactful prefixes from the rich realms of Latin and Greek languages.
• Word Definitions: Equip your students with a solid understanding of each word, laying the foundation for deeper language comprehension.
• Fill in the Blank Sentences: Immerse your class in the learning process with cloze sentences that challenge them to apply their newfound knowledge in context.
• Task Cards: Make learning interactive and enjoyable with task cards that encourage independent exploration and reinforce language skills.
• Google Quizzes: Easily accessible quizzes that provide instant feedback, saving you valuable time and promoting a tech-savvy learning environment.
