Personification

Worksheet Description

This worksheet introduces the concept of personification, which is a figure of speech where human characteristics are attributed to non-human objects. The worksheet provides an example of personification and then sets out instructions for the students to create their own examples. Students are given a choice between three different inanimate objects: a pencil, a car, and a chair. They are asked to think of verbs that describe human actions and apply them to the chosen object, then draw the object performing the action and write a sentence personifying it.

The worksheet is teaching students how to use personification in writing. It aims to enhance their creative thinking by encouraging them to come up with human-like actions for non-human objects. The drawing and writing tasks help solidify the concept by allowing students to visualize and articulate personification. This activity not only improves their understanding of figurative language but also stimulates their imagination and reinforces their vocabulary related to human actions.
