Master poetry's rhyme! Identify end, internal, slant, and eye rhyme.

Video: Types of Rhyme Watch the video to review the four types of rhyme: end rhyme, internal rhyme, slant rhyme, and eye rhyme. Definitions Match the type of rhyme with its definition. End Rhyme When the words at the end of different lines rhyme. Internal Rhyme When words rhyme within the same line. Slant Rhyme When two words almost rhyme but not exactly. Words with the same assonance or consonance are said to have slant rhyme. Eye Rhyme When two words appear to rhyme based on how they are spelled, but are actually pronounced differently. Identification Match the examples with the appropriate type of rhyme. End Rhyme “Tyger Tyger, burning bright, In the forests of the night;” Internal Rhyme “Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary," Slant Rhyme “If love is like a bridge or maybe like a grudge, Eye Rhyme "Fearful that I might go blind, What will I find within the wind?"
