Core concepts: Personification meaning using human-like (person) characteristics or actions to describe the way a non-human object is behaving. It helps paint a clearer and more interesting picture in the reader's mind. On the Student Template (4 pages) Page 1: Human Characteristics Listen to the directions and/or watch the video example in the upper right corner. Then, closely examine the illustrations. Double tap on the labels above each illustration and place a human characteristic in each label to describe the image. Past tense verbs work great (they usually end in -ed). Page 2: Black Box of Matches Drag the hidden pictures from the non-human and human boxes out to the white work area. Match a non-human picture with a human picture. Circle the matches with a pen and then explain your matches using the microphone. Page 3: Visualization Read and/or listen to each sentence. Then, using the creative tools, illustrate the personification in the box below the sentence to the best of your ability. Page 4: Personification Practice Complete each sentence with a personification of your choice. Remember, using past tense verbs that end in -ed can be helpful as long as that word is something that is normally done by a person. Submit your best work
