I am a head of English who has been teaching for 9 years in middle school and Primary. For the last 5 years, I have also been a year 5 and year 3 class teacher. I have been a TES contributor for a while, with free and premium resources and I always upload resources that I have used successfully in my own teaching. I hope you might find them useful too!
This powerpoint contains all the resources needed to make a game of Poetry Connect 4. The first grid is a game mat with examples of poetic devices, similies, metaphors, personification and alliteration, and the second is the cards. We play in 4s (2 vs. 2), with pupils trying to cover 4 squares in a row by identifying the technique used. I have used this resource in years 5, 6 and 7, and it really helps pupils to remember the techniques!
