| Alliteration is the repetition of the same beginning sounds. The following alliteration poem uses each letter in the word Christmas. Even though the words in each line of the poem begin with the same letter, some do not have the same alliterative sound as the others in that line. |
Can you find which sounds belong together and those that don’t? Can you replace them with different words that do have matching alliterative sounds?
Candy canes, carolers and cards
Holiday happiness, holly, and home
Reindeer running, ribbon, and red
Icicles icing, invites, and ivy
Stocking stuffers, stories, and skates
Tiny treasures, turkey, and toys
Making memories, mittens and more
Angels’ anticipation, advent, and awe
Sparkling snow, sledding, and Santa
