Description
Posting a word wall of literary terms is the best way to improve your middle school students’ academic vocabulary. I refer to this classroom decor resource every day in my middle school classes, and I’m sure you will too!
This set of literary term posters and notes will enable your students to refine their literary conversational skills and enhance their reading skills. Kids are much more likely to use the terminology if they can double check the definition first. These posters make it easy!
This resource includes more than 70 color mini-posters and identical black and white posters. It also includes folding notes that students can fill out based on the information on the posters.

=================
These mini-posters (8.5×11) will make a wonderful-looking and practical bulletin board display. You can print them full sized or half, hang them up, and have students fill out their notes from their seats or by walking around. You can even jigsaw by having students work in groups to write assigned definitions and then regroup to share. Then everyone will have all of the notes.
If you want to use the ink-saving black and white versions, you can pass them around the room. Assign each student to write the definition and then contribute to the classroom décor by coloring a little bit of each poster. Everyone will benefit. The kids will have ownership of the assignment. You will have colorful posters. And the kids will be learning while they have a little fun!
In the future, encourage students to use their words when discussing literature! It’s an added incentive to use them when they are displayed right in the room!
