Figurative Language - Student Templates

Checking your access...

Are you looking for a student template to practise identifying and using figurative language? These templates cover 10 figurative language types — simile, metaphor, alliteration, personification, idiom, hyperbole, oxymoron, pun, onomatopoeia and allusion — and give students space to read the definition, draw an example and write a sentence using each device.

Each template includes the type name and space for drawing and writing. Two versions are included: one with the definition pre-filled and one with a blank definition box for students to complete themselves.

What's included:

  • 10 templates with definition provided

  • 10 templates with a blank definition box for students to fill in
