Writing Techniques - teaching and revision tool!

This creative activity teaches your classes the definitions for some different writing techniques and is a wonderful revision tool. Words and definitions included are: personification, assonance, metaphor, Onomatopoeia, simile and alliteration.

A volvelle or wheel chart is a type of slide chart, constructed from paper with rotating parts. It’s brilliant for both teaching and revision. The student sticks the definitions on the Volvelle and then can use it as a revision tool. They are fun to make!

The volvelle worksheet is complete with instructions on what your class should do, so it really helps make this lesson fun and easy.

With this resource, you get a fascinating Volvelle PowerPoint which is 10 slides long and can be used to teach your class all about Volvelles. This makes a great starter to your lesson, and the presentation includes a script, making you the instant expert!

There is a stage by stage teachers pictorial guide on how to put the volvelle together, which includes lots of useful advice and tips so you can be confident when you teach your class.

To sum up, you get:
• The Volvelle worksheet which has the definitions on it
• A presentation about Volvelles
