Young writers hunt for examples of figurative language in their reading. The hunt requires pupils to cite their sources, record a quoted example for each type of figurative language, and an explanation of what they think the examples means. They must find examples of alliteration, hyperbole, idiom, metaphor, onomatopoeia, personification, and simile.
