⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This bundle was an AMAZING way to review figurative language and there was SO much engagement in my classroom! My students have asked to do more review activities like this in the future and I know this will be a great resource to use in the future. I even snuck in one task as a portion of their test on figurative language!
