Figurative Language is one of my favorite things to teach! There are so many fun ways to teach this skill and the kids always seem to enjoy it. I wanted to share a fun little presentation that I created with a site called Nearpod. Have y’all ever heard of this site? It’s a wonderful FREE presentation tool. You can check it out here. There are tons of free, already created presentations that you have access to. You can also purchase presentations or create your own. I decided to make my own so I can put in exactly what I wanted for my lesson on figurative language. You can use it too! I made a definition slide for each type of figurative language and them provided a video clip that showed an example of each type. This was their favorite part of the entire lesson and it really helped them see how that type was used in context. They were constantly referring back to the videos. You can check out my Nearpod below.
I loved the pictures!

How do I get this Nearpod so I can use it interactively with my class?
How do I access this Nearpod so that I can use it interactively with my students? I've searched and searched and cannot find it on Nearpod.
Did anyone figure out how to project the Nearpod? I have searched for it but can't find it either!
Did anyone figure out how to project the Nearpod in their classroom?
Hi Leslie! What is the name of the font you used on your figurative language foldable page? (the one you have "Simile", "Metaphor", etc. typed in) It's stinking cute and I'd love to have it.
Thank you!
