Inside our Reference Organizer, you may have noticed the I made a reference minibook of figures of speech or poetic devices. I used a PDF printable I found at Katie Jensen’s Classroom Posters page. It was a very useful reference as we went through our poetry study. And we pull it out every now and then when we come across a poetic device in our reading.
Look for the Literary Devices Posters. (It’s a great site for free printables, do some peeping over there; you’re sure to find something you like.) To make a minibook, simply change your print settings to print four per page. I hole punched the corner and used a paper fastener to keep it all together. It would work really well on a ring too.
This post is getting loads of hits from Pinterest. Yeah! I feel sort of badly since I didn’t even create these printables. But, Ms. Jensen has no images on her site, so it’s understandable how this post would get pinned instead of the original site where the posters come from. I hope you enjoy her printables. They are really nice.
If you like my approach to teaching language arts here, you may also be interested in my very modestly priced eBooks shown below. One is specifically about language arts while Notebooking Success applies to any academic area.

Hi, I'm Jimmie, and this is my online collage -- a little bit of this and a little bit of that, but mostly homeschooling with a loosely Charlotte Mason style. You're welcome to poke around and leave a comment if you desire.

That’s a great site, Jimmie! Thanks for the link. Looks like I’d better pick up a new color ink cartridge.

Great site! I just had my oldest child start working on a literary terms lapbook – the posters will be great. Also, thank you for the awesome tip about printing out four posters to a page to make them smaller. I didn’t know I could do that! I know that tip is going to come in so handy on lots and lots of things I want to print out. Thanks again!

Thank you Jimmie!! We just got the literary devices printed and laminated… what an awesome resource!! My dd was VERY excited when she found out she’d been using these already, but just wasn’t aware they had names!!
The link doesn’t work any more
I can’t find the copies I printed. Do you know of another good printable?
Thanks
