Practice Onomatopoeia

Onomatopoeia is a technique that authors use to create sensory images by using a word whose sound suggests its meaning.


You can use these types of words when you create word art. You can also use these words when you create shape poems that you will study next.

Words like: buzz, crack, and murmur are examples of these kinds of words.
