I’ve found that although my students can tell me the definition of these terms, simile is the only one they can truly pick out in a text.

Symbolism - Common Symbols Found in Literature and Poetry
Use this presentation to cover the most important and common symbols found in poetry and prose. Once they know the basics, students can then identify the same or similar symbols easily on their own when reading. I use these notes to help students in identifying symbols in poetry; it would also be great for getting students to incorporate symbols into their own writing in a Creative Writing class. Every slide includes a different symbol, what it (usually) represents, and a picture to illustrate!
