Using Katy Perry's 'Fireworks' as the basis for the lesson; students will identify her use of "similes" and the effect and imagery that this creates; this is followed by a creative writing task. It also includes examples from Eminem; Lady Gaga; Taylor Swift and Beyonce.
Amazing, thank you! Heard this song the other day and thought it would be brilliant for teaching similes...you've saved me a job and love the powerpoint. Claire
Absolutely fantastic lesson - very original and I'm sure my students will love it. I think you might have forgotten to upload the 2nd worksheet though - with the similes which are missing second halves. But anyway, thank you very much! A great resource.
This looks excellent - so much more engaging than some of the online resources. Thank you for creating it. The 'poetic devices' worksheet is a nice complementary piece, too, in 'related resources'.
Wow! This way to learn literary techniques through songs is really clever, I loved it but I´m afraid the level of my students is not high enough to do them in an effective way. Do you have something similar but more basic??? Thank you so much MdM
