About this resource

This Year 6 literacy resource focuses on identifying and understanding figurative language through two engaging, spring-themed descriptive paragraphs. Pupils explore examples of simile, metaphor and personification, helping them recognise how writers use language to create vivid imagery and atmosphere. The activity is quick to prepare and easy to use, making it ideal for whole-class teaching, guided reading, independent work or revision. Pupils are encouraged to read carefully, locate language features within the text and explain their choices using evidence. An accompanying teacher explanation and highlighted answers support modelling and assessment. Designed for Upper Key Stage 2, this resource supports reading comprehension, vocabulary development and writing skills, and links closely to Year 6 SATs-style expectations. The spring theme makes it particularly suitable for seasonal lessons, cross-curricular links, or as a creative writing stimulus.Read more

This pack is print and go. Our catalogue does not list an editable copy of it, so none is offered here rather than promising a file nobody has opened. Page counts are not printed either, because we do not publish them and a guessed number is worse than none.
