Teachers, save “Literal vs Nonliteral/Figurative Language” to assign it to your class.

Open the Slides in the Directions Listen to the Learning Target Watch the Quick Explainer video Watch the Literal vs Figurative Language Video Listen and follow along to the music video (just for fun). Core concepts: Literal language means exactly what it says. Figurative language means you must figure out what is being said. On the Student Template (4 pages) Page 1: Pocket Placers Drag and sort the purple strips to the literal pocket on the left or the figurative pocket on the right. Make sure to keep the sentences sticking out so we can still read them. Page 2: Grey Area Drag the hidden labels to the proper column and then use the notes on screen to record yourself explaining the difference between literal and nonliteral/figurative language. Page 3: Let's Go to the Movies Watch the video. Take note of two of your favorite examples of nonliteral/figurative language. Add those examples to the provided labels by changing the provided text. Then, use the mic to explain what the nonliteral language really means. Page 4: Show-off This is your place to show what you know about literal and/or nonliteral/figurative language. It's up to you to show what you know. Make a video, record your voice, draw a picture, use text labels, and generally get creative to show off what that you understand the difference between the two.
