Metaphors are a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.
This lesson focuses on using metaphors in poetry. It comes with an engaging powerpoint presentation and the related lesson plan, activity sheet and example poems.
Children learn what metaphors are and identify them in poems as a class, discussing their effect on the poem and the reader. They then do this in pairs/ small groups reading a number of poems and creating their own metaphors for images given. As a class then complete a modelled write, taking words and phrases from the children to create a stanza/verse of a poem based on the video clip. The children then write an additional stanza to the poem independently making use of metaphors for effect.
