This workbook, though beyond the beginning
level, provides a clear format for considering how
figurative language "works" without high
level vocabulary and difficult syntax. Using simple vocabulary
and comprehensible context, each page has a single word that is
used figuratively in two very short paragraphs (e.g. LIGHT- 1) eat a light
lunch, 2) to feel light headed). Students read the paragraph, discuss the
intent, provide evidence from details in the paragraph that lead to
their definition of the highlighted phrase. They then illustrate the
paragraph.
