Alliteration and Assonance
Alliteration is when a writer repeats the consonant sounds at the beginnings of words. For example, in “My puppy punched me in the eye,” the words “puppy punched” are alliterative because they both begin with “p.”
Assonance is when a writer repeats the vowel sounds in the stressed syllables of words. For example, in the line ”My rabbit whacked my ear,” the words “rabbit whacked” are an example of assonance because they both contain a “short a” sound on the stressed syllable.
Alliteration and assonance do not have to have the same letters; just the same sounds. So for example, “falling phone” is alliterative and “flying high” is assonant, because they repeat the same sounds even though they don’t repeat the same letters.
Activity:
1. Read the following poem.2. Underline the alliterative words in each line.3. Circle the assonant words in each line.4. Draw a block around the rhyming words.
Hint: Sometimes words can be both alliterative and assonant.
My Puppy Punched Me In the Eye
My puppy punched me in the eye.My rabbit whacked my ear.My ferret gave a frightful cryand roundhouse kicked my rear.
My lizard flipped me upside down.My kitten kicked my head.My hamster slammed me to the groundand left me nearly dead.
So my advice? Avoid regrets;no matter what you do,don’t ever let your family petstake lessons in kung fu.
