Description: Sentence context is key for teaching students how to identify the meaning of figurative language. These BOOM CARDS™ activities help students understand what idioms, metaphors, similes, and hyperboles are, then provide tons of practice for the skill! Since it's not practical to teach all figurative language expressions, we must teach students the strategy of utilizing context clues to determine the meaning of idioms, metaphors, similes, and hyperboles. These digital task cards are a great addition to your speech therapy toolkit for older students, and will be useful for years to come. Here's what you'll get in this BUNDLE of 3 Boom Cards™ decks: - MINI-LESSONS that include definitions and examples of different figurative language types (idioms, hyperboles, and metaphors/similes) - A total of 120 CARDS OF PRACTICE, each with a figurative language expression used in the context of 1-3 sentences. Four multiple choice answers for the meaning are included. This activity will allow you to teach and target multiple types of figurative language! No more teaching isolated figurative language expressions. This resource will guide you in teaching your students how to apply context clues in situations in and outside of the therapy room or classroom! Use this activity to: - Probe figurative language abilities - Practice identifying the meaning of figurative language expressions - Monitor progress on figurative language goals - Assign to your students for homework
