Figurative+Language+Lesson

This is a lesson on figurative language, specifically reviewing similes, metaphors and idioms with the students. After giving the students examples of figurative language aloud, they played 'Idiom Pictionary'. The students loved playing this game and learned a lot from the lesson. After this lesson, Ms. Cox found the students using more figurative language in their writing (as often as possible). Here are two video clips of the lesson and the game.
