Across
- 4. Human qualities given to nonhuman objects (The stars blinked at me last night.)
- 5. Hinting at future events that are to come later in a story or book.
- 7. A pair of contradictory or opposite words (pretty big, jumbo shrimp)
- 8. A comparison of two things WITHOUT using the words "like" or "as" (Tom is a night owl who sleeps during the day.)
- 10. A comparison of two things that DOES USE the words "like" or "as" (Her hair is as golden as the sun.)
Down
- 1. Multiple instances of a word or phrase in a text
- 2. A sequence of words with the same initial sound (Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.)
- 3. A statement that is exaggerated (I'm so hungry that I can eat an entire horse right now!)
- 6. A word that SOUNDS like the thing it refers to (crash, boom, splash, ring)
- 9. Using sensory details (sight, smell, taste, hearing, and touch) to help the reader visualize the text
