    These are great for intro, review, spiral review, etc. Great!!!!

  6. Tiffany H. –

    This was a fun way for my students to review and identify different types of figurative language. I like the QR code for students to check their work.

  7. Carlye D. –

    I used this as a review station before our state test. The kids liked that it was interactive and not another worksheet.

    My students enjoyed using this resource as a complement to our figurative language unit.

  14. Michele C. –

    I used this activity as part of my centers for extra practice on figurative language.

  15. Antonia S. –

    Engaging way to use figurative language but we could not get the interactive part to work without being “glitchy” as my son stated. But we used it without and liked.

  16. April T. –

    I really enjoyed these activities. The students found the activity fun and they stayed engaged in the activity. Help with keeping information locked in students minds.

  17. mary A. –

    Engaging and useful resource!

  18. Malgorzata B. –
