Figurative Hunt

In this figurative language hunt, students analyze an excerpt from A Christmas Carol to identify examples of simile, metaphor, and personification. They must locate and explain each device, demonstrating comprehension of how Dickens’s language adds meaning and mood. This activity enhances literary interpretation skills and builds awareness of descriptive techniques used in classic literature. It encourages close reading and appreciation of Dickens’s style and use of imagery.
