The document discusses different literary devices including figurative language, sound devices, personification, hyperbole, and onomatopoeia. It provides examples of each device and has students identify examples of each one in sentences. It also has students create their own original sentences using the three sound devices of personification, hyperbole, and onomatopoeia.

the imagination, or paint the pictures
in the mind of the reader.

4. Spider Webs
James S. Tippet
The spiders were busy last night
From every fence and tree
They hung their lacy webs
For all the world to see.
The mist was busy too;
In the stillness of the night
It strung the spider webs with pearls
To catch the morning light.
One spider wove a web
Like frost on a window pane;
Another one spun a single thread
That looks like jeweled chain.
Motionless hang the webs,
By the quiet sunbeam kissed;
A fairy world was made last night
By the spiders and the mist.
