Figurative Language and Other Terms IN A NUTSHELL was designed to familiarize students with various language terms and to help develop their skills as writers. In less than 65 pages, they will learn what constitutes a complete sentence, will learn about plot structure, and will become familiar with writing techniques that authors often incorporate into their writing, such as imagery, alliteration, assonance, and allusion. The four different types of sentences (imperative, declarative, interrogative, and exclamatory) will also be studied, and students will be able to differentiate between sentences written in the first person, second person, and third person. In addition, easy-to-understand definitions, examples, and colorful illustrations are provided to familiarize students with the terms personification, onomatopoeia, simile, metaphor, metonymy, synecdoche, hyperbole, idiom, irony, oxymoron, puns, acronym, antonym, and synonym. Moreover, students will learn how to distinguish between the often-confused words homonyms, homophones, homographs, and heteronyms. Besides the terms mentioned above, students will learn when can should be used in a sentence in place of may and when I should be used in place of me. Several reproducible worksheets and a practice test are also available for individual practice, to assess student learning, or for a teacher to use for direct instruction purposes on the classroom screen.
