I was fortunate enough to sit in on a really engaging ELA lesson a few weeks ago. This middle school teacher was exploring literary devices and used the Ray Bradbury short story, "All Summer in a Day". The students were enthralled by the story itself, but the teacher really caught my attention when she asked students to find examples of literary devices within the text and write/draw the examples along with the kind of literary device.
By offering students options for action and expression this teacher was giving students the opportunity to show her what they really knew!
