Description

Teach your students to think carefully about their language choices: Each lesson in this bundle provides you with everything you need to teach students about word choice, tone, imagery, and figurative language. From the start of the lesson to the final assessment, the lessons hook students then move them through activities that focus on active, rather than passive learning.

There are six different lessons in this bundle, all designed to show students how word choice affects meaning, whether they are using description, exposition or persuasion. The bundle includes lessons & activities for teaching students about:

✅ Lesson 1: Tired words

✅ Lesson 2: Vivid Verbs

✅ Lesson 3: Connotation & Tone

✅ Lesson 4: Imagery

✅ Lesson 5: Figurative Language

✅ Lesson 6: Putting it All Together

BONUS: Learning Stations for Commonly Confused Words.

Each lesson begins with a hook then provides you with a slideshow to teach the concept. Next you will find options for individual and group work that require students to use what they have just learned. Most lessons come with suggestions for ways to get your students moving too. There are even digital options for each student exercise and final learning stations to review the concepts.

Answer keys, assessment options and editable rubrics are included.
