Hyperbole and figurative language are the focus of this 60 page plus 20 google slide unit developed for students with autism and other special learning needs. This unit has various activities to help students understand what hyperbole is, how to recognize it, and how it can deepen the meaning of what you are reading. The materials are designed to allow students with multiple levels of learning to access and engage in the activities either through cut and paste worksheets or digitally through google slides. There are many opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on how to determine if a passage contains hyperbole. This repetition encourages a deeper understanding of this challenging concept. Students will even write their own story using hyperbole in an errorless writing prompt.

*****This unit includes digital versions of the activities. There are 20 google slides (includes a differentiated set) and a movie version of the book.

Much of what I have learned about curriculum development is incorporated in these units. For example, do not be afraid of repetition. It is critical that students with significant disabilities get to experience material over several days to be able to fully assimilate what is being taught. Also, adding visual supports to your printables and class activities helps students be able to pay more attention to the content you are presenting rather than the mechanics of what is expected. Finally, ask questions. Good questions!! Regardless of the material, we can ask students questions that will push them to think more deeply than before.

 

As always please take a moment to leave feedback or post any questions you may have. 

I am currently developing more units, and any feedback I get helps me make improvements in the future.
