Personification KS2
This Personification KS2 lesson introduces your class to the use of figurative language that gives human qualities, feelings or actions to animals, objects and ideas. Personification can make writing more vivid and imaginative, with descriptions such as ‘the wind whispered through the trees’ or ‘the angry clouds marched across the sky’ helping readers to picture scenes more clearly.
If you want to introduce your class to other types of figurative language in addition to personification, such as similes, hyperbole and onomatopoeia, you might want to take a look at our Figurative Language KS2 Standalone Lesson Pack!
Lesson 1: Personification
In this ready-to-teach Personification KS2 lesson, your class will learn how to write vivid and relatable descriptive sentences using this type of figurative language.
After discussing what personification is, and why writers use it, children will look at different descriptive sentences, analysing what has been personified and how. As a class, they will then find out how to use personification in a sentence through careful choice of verbs, adverbs and adjectives. They will learn that personification can even help to create a specific mood or atmosphere. In their independent activities, children will practise using personification by describing a given image or setting. In the alternative activity, children work in pairs to identify whether a given sentence includes personification. If it does, they discuss how it has been used, how effective it is, and whether it can be improved. If it doesn't include personification, children are challenged to rewrite it so that it does!
Everything you need is included within this Personification KS2 English lesson pack - a detailed plan, an engaging set of PDF slides for the teaching input, differentiated activity ideas and printable resources.
