Literary Devices/Terms Packet
We will encounter several literary devices and terms this trimester in World Lit. You will use this packet to take notes on these devices throughout this trimester. For each literary term you will: 1) determine a definition or description for each device, 2) find an example of that device as it is employed in one of our novels this trimester, 3) write your own sentence employing that literary device, 4) represent the literary terms by artwork (drawing, images, graphic, chart, etc.) Personification has been done for you as an example.
