Description: This is a set of 12 digital task cards that allow your students to practice identifying metaphors, similes, and personifications excerpted from the novel Out of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper. Students read each excerpt and select the correct figurative language device from three multiple-choice options. An audio prompt of the difference between a simile, metaphor, and personification 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
