Description: This is a set of 12 digital task cards that allow your students to practice identifying metaphors, similes, and personifications excerpted from the award-winning novel, Scary Stories for Young Foxes, by Christian McKay Heidicker. Students read each excerpt and select the correct figurative language device from three multiple-choice options. An audio prompt of the difference between personification, simile, and metaphor is embedded within each card. This would be perfect as a formative or summative assessment! NOTE: Students DO NOT have to be familiar with the text to work with this resource! Yours in Literacy, Sheila
