Explore figurative language with pupils using the activities in this resource pack, investigating examples of simile, metaphors, onomatopoeia, personification, imagery and alliteration.

Figurative language is often used to create imagery in poetry and narratives for effect and to add descriptions to create a vivid image for the reader. Pupils can use the cards to match figurative language definitions to examples and can use the images to create their own examples of figurative language to create character or setting descriptions.
