English teachers are the worst for mnemonics and acronyms. Particularly, since the likes of AFOREST PIE and MOPSA never actually cater for the needs of the students. Is that P for Personification or Pathetic Fallacy? That S, is it for Similes or Senses? Do you even know if they can remember both?
Try SOAPMAPS instead. It's a far simpler approach to understanding what techniques make work more creative:
Similes
Onomatopoeia
Adjectives
Personification
Metaphors
Adverbs
Pathetic Fallacy
Senses
Now the students can use the language devices to "clean-up their narrative direction".

Brilliant graphics and clear examples. When you piece the examples together they describe a map which can then leads onto encouraging the students to write a piece of descriptive writing entitled 'Treasure Island'. Great work and thank you for sharing.
