OSDE ELA Glossary (webpage) |
-
Literary devices, or techniques, are similar to literary elements in that they are choices an author includes when writing, but they “are not universal or necessary in the sense that not all works contain instances of them” (Literary Devices).
-
Literary devices are style choices rather than essentials.
-
Different devices include those listed in the standard which can be found in the OSDE Glossary, but for further explanations on these devices, along with other devices, refer to: literarydevices.com.
-
Examples of these terms include:
-
This is the first year students are exposed to similes and metaphors. Students will need a lot of teacher support in the beginning to identify and locate similes and metaphors. That support should be gradually released.
-
Students sometimes overgeneralize when identifying similes and metaphors.
-
They need to understand the use of the word, like, is not necessarily a simile. The statement I like ice cream is not a simile.
-
Likewise, any use of is or are is not necessarily a metaphor. The statement His shirt is blue is not a metaphor.
|
Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
