The fourth standard for reading literature in the Common Core calls for young readers to be able to determine the figurative and connotative meanings of words and phrases. Use this resource, a continuation of a series of Common Core lessons, to review idioms, personification, and other figurative language with your class. Start with two warm-up activities, one that focuses on idioms and one on personification, then move on to the two included multiple choice quizzes. Note: All of the activities provided here are ready to use without any supplementing required.
