This FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE STATIONS activity is a fun and effective method for giving students practice at analyzing the most important types of figurative language. Students will develop the skills not only to identify types of figurative language but also to explain how figurative language contributes to the meaning of a literary text!

Students will learn about figurative language while gaining exposure to the most profound and thought-provoking quotations from the world's greatest writers! They'll be asked to analyze the figures of speech in over 120 inspiring quotations by a diverse range of important authors: Chinua Achebe, Louisa May Alcott, Maya Angelou, Jane Austen, James Baldwin, William Blake, Emily Dickinson, John Donne, Louise Erdrich, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Robert Frost, Zora Neale Hurston, John Keats, Harper Lee, Toni Morrison, George Orwell, Zadie Smith, John Steinbeck, Henry David Thoreau, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, Virginia Woolf, and many others.

This stations activity focuses on the 8 types of figurative language that are used most commonly in literature: metaphor, simile, metonymy, personification, apostrophe, paradox, oxymoron, and hyperbole.

Here's what you'll find inside this 40-page resource:

• Stations Worksheets (x8): This resource includes a total of 8 worksheets focused on 8 types of figurative language.

Why teach word meaning through nonsense words?

• Students must use critical thinking to solve
• Students must read the whole passage for context clues
• Students must problem solve to find the best word that makes the most sense.
• They can't find the answer except through problem solving.

All of these are things we want every student to do! This is something that is already adapted for high and low learners.

Starting with three nonsense words gets students going so they can work in groups or independently to decode the meaning of 7 REAL words (selected from the SAT vocabulary list).

Guided reading allows teachers to monitor students while they read texts appropriate to their instructional reading levels. It typically includes these standard components:

- Collaborating in small teams

- Aligning student reading skills with text difficulty levels

- Providing each individual in the group with identical text

- Presenting the text

- Hearing people read

- Encouraging students to unify their reading strategies

- Involving students in discussions regarding the text.

The objective is to assist Grade 12 students in creating strategies for independent application. Work emphasizes processes essential for proficient reading, like cross-referencing print with meaning, instead of memorizing the definitions of words from a specific book. In guided reading, educators observe student reading behaviors and ensure that texts are accessible to them, enabling learners to combine their newly learned skills into a cohesive, integrated reading system.

This ebook will assist you in practicing guided reading with your 12th-grade classes. It includes a complete lesson plan with activities and recommended answers that takes about 90 minutes.

This metacognitive questions poster includes questions for students to consider while studying, reading, or reflecting on their work. Metacognition is the process of thinking about your own thinking.

Use this poster to discuss as a class, journal individually, or simply think about the processes and connections involved with studying, reading, or class activities. You can print or post online.

***HOW TO USE LESSON ACTIVITIES***

SUMMARY:

Euripides' Medea highlights a powerful witch and magician herself. She fell in love with Jason when he came to Colchis with the Argonauts to steal the Golden Fleece from her father. In fact, Medea was so in love that she betrayed her family and abandoned her homeland, helping Jason steal the Golden Fleece and then running away with him to Greece.

Though she was highly devoted, Medea could also be dangerous and overbearing. She went to extreme lengths to help Jason, killing her own brother and later brutally murdering Jason’s uncle Pelias for stealing Jason’s throne. Despite all this, Jason eventually left Medea to marry another woman. Medea used her skills to take revenge on Jason. Did her revenge go too far?

This 11th - 12th grade canonized work allows students to delve into the importance of what happens when we pursue revenge. Can we be too vengeful?
